I want fully staffed public pools, and libraries that are cathedrals to public goods and a society where walling yourself off with money is viewed as sociopathic.

once again, grateful that someone else managed to put my exact feelings into words because, whenever I try, the only thing I can manage is a guttural scream while I stare at the sun

Incredible work by @sandyernestallen.bsky.social and @maris.bsky.social. Extra grateful to see my beloved BEATING HEART BABY included. 🥲

We'll always have this @mckinneykelsey.bsky.social blog. And the home runs. defector.com/is-the-phill...

It's been really lovely reading all the tributes to Dan. Many people have asked if they can contribute to support his wife and son. You can do so here: everloved.com/life-of/dan-...

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact

I was recently informed that “Dominic the Donkey” is a regional phenomenon? that not everyone knows about “the Italian Christmas donkey”???

i loved the 2025 philadelphia phillies. no playoffs can make me hate them. defector.com/what-ill-rem...

the scammers are back on their bullshit. if we’ve emailed you from a random hotmail account? (literally) no we didn’t.

gonna need a public mural of her in philadelphia STAT

nothing hotter than a union man

another absolute banger from @printrunpodcast.bsky.social, who always speak about this weird work we do so thoughtfully. And thank god they do bc when I try to talk about it, just an ear-bleeding feral scream that only bog creatures can hear comes out??? Anyway, reopening to queries next week!

Hello. After months and months of self-consciously self-promoting, the day has finally come. I WANT TO BURN THIS PLACE DOWN is available wherever books are sold. www.harpercollins.com/products/i-w...

the lesson that has positively affected me the most in my adult life, the lesson I’m most proud of having learned, is the difference between FEELING unsafe and BEING unsafe

somehow, about a decade ago, the internet gave me both @kristenarnett.bsky.social and @emmaceisenberg.bsky.social and god what a fucking gift that I get to know them! My two beautiful pals!!!!

Genuinely can’t even put into words how fucking lucky we are to have a book-length compendium of Kate advice. This shit is gold!!!

everybody lock in, it’s time to tee hee hee with our friend Josh!!!

I never feel more simple than during our first stretch of sixty+ degree weather every year when my will to live returns like a slap in the face

get tickets to come see me and kelsey in boston next week!!!!

i also wrote a newsletter about how weird it is to try and sell art in this month in particular, and decided to donate one dollar for every presale to The Attic Youth Center here in Philly buttondown.com/mckinneykels...

I can’t listen to one more smug millennial whine about young ppl’s reliance on tiktok for recipes and music as if y’all popped out knowing how to read a paper map or use the dewey decimal system or drive stick. you sound like a boomer. grow up.

hi! my annual video countdown of the year's best movies will be up on monday, january 13. on the advice of "No Other Land" director Basel Adra, the annual fundraiser i launch along with it is in support of The Palestine Red Crescent Society, and the fundraiser is now live: gofund.me/ae3c2b9f

why WHY are they making them stand sideways on the stage when a) the screen behind them is out of shot and b) they’re not showing clips???? this broadcast is making me feel INSANE

*to the tune of pink pony club* THREE MOVIE DAY

I have loved working on Normal Gossip so much, and it has consumed three years of my life! I am so excited that we can hand it off to people who I know will be just as good(if not better) than us at making this show a fucking banger: defector.com/welcome-to-t...

thank god middle-of-the-night-Dana thought to transcribe this very important list she saw in a dream

it’s the most wonderful time of the yearrrrr (leftover pie for breakfast season)

this is the type of energy I'm trying to bring back to my posting

this is your annual reminder that ocean spray, the cranberry company, is a member-owned co-op that is obligated by their charter to buy their farmers' entire cranberry crop at higher than market prices! so buy your cranberries this week from ocean spray!

this year I said I'd make more art, and I did, and that's nice. here's some I like a lot

🥲🥲🥲

Happy pub day to @margareteby.bsky.social! Read our conversation about You Gotta Eat and why you should try mayo and pineapple sandwiches www.eater.com/24228934/you...

"i hope this site doesn't end up like the last one :(" Hope has nothing to do with it--DO YOUR PART! Twitter & Truth Social are dying. Their users are used to farming outrage for engagement. Don't give them any! 🚫 Don't argue with them! 🚫 Don't quote them! ✅ #BlockAndMoveOn

we’re so back (taking screenshots of an article that is so aggressively targeted to my specific interests that it brings me to tears)

wow ty @inquirer.com for including my forthcoming gossip book in this holiday gift guide!! www.inquirer.com/life/inq2/be...

freaking! out!!!!

Oz Perkins, man. One of my favorite interviews this year, had so much fun with it. Our interview on unseen forces, sympathy for the devil, parentage, and the dark magic at work inside his diabolically creepy horror-thriller LONGLEGS, for Inverse: t.co/2VFn2oDSU8

well well well they'll just let anyone in here huh

No shade to BA but I wrote this book because when I’m catastrophically hungover i am nowhere near an herb. I know the only answer is microwaved cheese (optional Cool ranch crumble) bsky.app/profile/case...

this post made me laugh so hard that it's easily 27% of the reason I joined this place

how much could ruining a social media platform possibly cost, michael? fourty-four billion dollars?
