I imagine the Supreme Court will be interested in this tweet.

AIDS Walk New York 2025 is coming up, and my team The Salty Bitches and I will be walking, again and always.

If among all the other crises, you can find the time, heart, and some dollars to help us out, I’d be forever grateful.

“Make Canada the 51st state” is “Annex the Sudetenland” but stupider.

I got my latest Covid shot because it’s time, plus a pneumonia shot because they’re recommending it for us olds, plus an MMR shot because of the stoopid running rampant throughout our land.

Protect yourself & others. Ignorance is contagious.

There are those who refer to M as my Carl Dean. I know what it means to have a Carl Dean. No one should have to lose their Carl Dean.

My heart breaks for Dolly.

Carl Dean, Dolly Parton’s husband of over 60 years and a man of mystery, dies at age 82
Carl Dean hid in the shadows while his wife dazzled in the spotlight. But he was Dolly Parton’s partner and biggest fan from the moment they met.

Whoot! Director Allan Piper and and I have made it to the quarterfinals round of the @killershorts.bsky.social 2025 competition for our screenplay adaptation of my play CASSIE STRICKLAND IS NOT UNDER THE BED!

RFK Jr has been confirmed to run HHS — which is, quite literally, sickening.

I can’t believe we had a whole strike against unauthorized AI-generated uses of our likeness and yet all these #actors are out here sharing that deepfake video.
February 12, 2025 at 4:24 PM
Y'all. AI deepfakes made without consent are bad, even when they're conveying an entirely righteous message.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Please enjoy this sight of me being sad in an audition, and know my Super Acting Secret: I was just letting out what’s been happening inside 24/7 for the last 10 days.

My copy of the Smith & Kraus Best Ten Minute Plays 2024 arrived, and I’m more honored than I can say that it includes GROUND ZERO, alongside some of my favorite heavy hitters. Thank you, Debbie Lamedman, for seeing something of value there.

A propos of nothing I'm sure, the featured play list on NPX today is "The Consequences of Authoritarianism", and includes the full-length version of BETTER, my dark redneck semi-comic drama set in a meat-packing plant.

Dig in here, or DM me for a perusal copy: newplayexchange.org/script/20372...

Accurate.
every example of how AI could be useful is like “if you were eating cereal, AI could tell you what cereal you were eating”

Tips for throwing sand in the gears:
My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

About 20% of children died before their 5th birthday in 1900. hashtag#RFKJr wants to bring this all back. He doesn't believe in germ theory--really, read his book--and hates vaccines. He's a menace to children everywhere. www.nber.org/system/files...

The entire implicit promise of the campaign was to put uppity libs, feminists, Black people, brown people, and queer people back in their place, and they’re delivering on that promise.

RIP Jules Pfeiffer. I have an awful, cringe-y, embarrassing story about meeting him when I was 12 years old, that I hoped one day to tell him. (In my adult life, we have some people in common.) I’m sad that I never got that chance.
