Of course good things happened in 2024 @newrepublic.com. It's this myopia (and collective forgetting) that keeps getting us to these bad spots. Don't forget. But do celebrate!

For the same price as deporting every undocumented migrant, the American Immigration Council estimated, the United States could build almost three million homes.

yes, Trump has nominated a gay dad (and billionaire hedge fund manager) as Treasury Secretary... Is this the type of "normal gay" that JD Vance is such a fan of? mombian.com/2024/11/25/t...

What if a Cybertruck was in love with a classic 1968 Beetle? "He gets it. In his day, he was smeared because the Nazis designed him to be the 'car of the people.' But look at him now: so adorable and beloved by everyone — no matter their politics."

Excited that I'm finally getting to a screening of Queer today! Will Daniel Craig as Burroughs live up to the hype?

Update! I interviewed @calliefreitag.bsky.social about this for Oldster Magazine... oldster.substack.com/p/how-trumps...

I wrote about how Bluesky is missing what made Twitter great: assholes www.cartoonshateher.com/p/something-...

I love this essay for lots of reasons but also glad to have a Millennial explain this to me: "Since my generation is defined by “situationships”—relationships that have no clear definitions or labels—my friends could understand the fluidity, but they couldn't understand my level of feelings."

We want your personal essays that reveal heartbreaks, happiness, secrets, sexual encounters and the realities of dating. Anything that answers the question: “What do you know about love?” Here's how to submit: queerloveproject.substack.com/p/coming-soon

Trump just named Dr. Oz to serve as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator. Yes, Dr. Oz.

there are some total hunks in the cast of the Swept Away musical now on Broadway. With songs by the Avett Brothers, I expected Americana realness, but did I know I was settling in for a Christian cannibalism parable? no, no I did not.

Saw Grey Henson in the Saturday matinee of Elf Musical on Broadway yesterday. Didn't see it the first go (and have never seen the movie), but the kids and fans were LOVING the Xmas vibes playbill.com/article/phot...

It's transgender awareness week and to celebrate trans and nonbinary folks, I wanted to share this wonderful #queerloveproject questionnaire with my friend Charlie who is always teaching me a thing or three. check it out! queerloveproject.substack.com/p/charlie-ma...

Had a fantastic chat with Tom Pyun about this debut novel. As he told me: "Part of this book is processing my grief over dating in SF. I've lived a lot of places, and it's the worst of any place I've ever lived."

Some people are offloading Teslas, but others are driving Cybertrucks as a dog whistle to signal their allegiance to the core brand of American fascism. Do you need this tank to roll over defenseless humans or are you just prepping for the apocalypse? jwportwood.substack.com/p/driving-cy...

Saw matinee of the #maybehappyending musical at the Belasco on #Broadway yesterday starring Darren Criss & Helen J Shin and it was adorable! and weird, smart, unusual. Hoping it lasts since it's a charmer
