Shouldn’t you be doing something about it?

Like go do something and then tell us. Not telling us shit we already know.
RFK Jr. is a completely unqualified conspiracy theorist who is putting newborn babies at risk.

The reckless decision to end a proven vaccine recommendation has no scientific basis.

This guy has got to go.

Yes — true in music too, probably in all the arts. Add in the pernicious concept of “relevance” (I feel about this word the way @dubdobdee.bsky.social feels about “influence”) and you have a very warped perspective on any given field
Reminder! "Best Of" lists are tied to publicity and marketing budgets, who is able to hire publicists, what books made it to the top of a TBR stack *thousands* of arcs tall, and the shrinking # of outlets still doing book coverage.
Talk about your favorite books!
They likely weren't read. ❤️📚
A lot of Best Of lists are now out or on their way. Congrats to you all. It’s an accomplishment I hope every writer gets to experience at one time or another. Not everyone will, though, and to those writers, know I see you too. Keep telling your stories. Regardless of lists, the world needs them.

Scoop: Rep. Scott Peters (D-Calif.) tells me in an interview this afternoon the major sticking point holding up permitting reform right now is Dems need language to halt Trump’s extra layers of extra screening on renewable energy.

I broke the news of the screening.

Thanks for reading, Congress.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

Very sad to see NBC Out go down. I know journalists who have worked there and it was home to some of the best in depth reporting on LGBTQ+ issues out there from a legacy media outlet.

Legacy media continues to abandon us, and it seems only we can tell our own stories these days.

This is how you handle transphobic people. You make them out to be idiots. You don't back down, and you press.

The same bs they're spewing about autism and tylenol is the same bs they're spewing about trans people's healthcare. It's the exact same playbook and the fact that the media can see through one and not the other is a damning indictment of how complicit they are in the attack on trans lives.

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

The Jimmy Kimmel firing, Colbert's show, what's happening at WaPo, CBS... legacy journalism is slowly but surely coming under state control.

It is more important now than ever before that we support the independent journalists out there doing the work not beholden to a fascist's bidding.
