my takeaway from climate week nyc is that "climate storytelling" is a little too much "we must reimagine our deepest souls in relationship to mother nature and the moral abyss of the polycrisis into which we must now stare" and not enough "ok but get a heat pump"

Just in time to get into the Halloween spirit, I’m teaching a horror writing class with Queens Collaboratory. If you’re in NYC and want to dip your toes into writing horror, this the place to do it. Tickets are $20-$25, and spots are pretty limited. luma.com/9pzyg2tm

have the severance superfans claiming it’s intrinsically more original than & thus superior to the pitt ever seen eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

I enjoy both the pitt & severance greatly and im glad both are getting love! both are about the unsustainable effects of violent capitalism in the workplace, both locate tenderness & connection within, both showcase their protagonists’ contradictions & complexity. unfortunately both have

this is your sundowning grandpa who wouldn’t be hired for a job at 7/11 even if he bribed the guy

This looks amazing!

I won a giveaway from @rosieethor.bsky.social and recently got this beautiful book in the mail. Only a few stories in and I'm very much enjoying it.

Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

Carrie Coon was my fave part of this season’s white lotus so I finally tuned into The Gilded Age for more of her and it was an extremely, extremely rewarding decision

russell couple make-up sex has the potential to be one of the hottest scenes ever, do not squander this potential #thegildedage 🙏

Please read every word. Senseless violence directed at heroes. We are lucky to have the #CDC minutes away from my neighborhood. Many great neighbors work there, or did, until the recent purges. A young officer lost his life. Thank you to Dan Whisenhunt & the @decaturish.bsky.social team

BBC International Editor Jeremy Bowen has confirmed that the entire Al Jazeera team in Gaza City has been killed.

was moping abt the State of things in the grocery store and then they started playing Huntrix’s Golden and ngl it made me feel better 😭

Even if you don’t mask normally, please mask up when you’re flying or attending conferences. Something is far more than nothing

A hunger strike at a South Florida immigration detention center state officials have named “Alligator Alcatraz” enters its tenth day, as detainees protest what they call inhumane and dangerous living conditions.

U.S. labor activist Chris Smalls has been released from jail after being abducted by Israeli forces as part of a Gaza aid ship. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition says Smalls had been assaulted by seven uniformed Israeli soldiers. mondoweiss.net/2025/07/u-s-... #Palestine #Israel

your eugenicist “good genes” can’t fix the ugliness of your racist soul

anyone who thinks of themself as “pro-life”—especially to the extent they believe it gives them the authority to legislate from that stance—should explicitly be both anti-bomb, pro 🍉, and against ICE’s actions.

"He can either give us a license... or we’ll smash the fucking window out and drag him out.” That's not just any ICE officer saying that. His name is Matthew Elliston and he now oversees ICE field operations on the East Coast.

Palestinian children have been killed at a rate of more than one child per hour during Israel's war in Gaza. “A whole classroom of children killed every day for nearly two years,” UNICEF’s executive director said. Here are some of their stories: wapo.st/3UCiAjn

Mamdani: I would say that for the former governor to have spent an entire day speaking almost exclusively about me and barely about the New Yorkers who have been killed is indicative of the very politics New Yorkers want to leave in the past.

"The man who is not yet mayor is to blame for a shooting that happened under the watch of an ex-cop mayor who's thrown every available dollar at the NYPD," insists sex pest

We should have a larger convo about how companies like American Eagle use beautiful people to add glamor to unglamorous products. In 2023, a young Bangladeshi woman committed suicide at a factory that made American Eagle clothes bc of abuse. This is the cost of cheap, trendy clothes.

wordle how could you do this to me today i share a wordle chat with my mom & her friends

the same party that insists restricting reproductive healthcare is a “pro-life” stance is eagerly starving babies to death. it’s a death cult and you do not need to pretend it has any moral standing.

14 people is already too many and is probably an undercount and the numbers will only grow and all of them will be undercounts This is a Holocaust

The avalanche of terrible news keeps flowing in. This cannot go unnoticed, this represents the everyday life of Palestinians in the West Bank: settlers rampage and pillage as the Israeli government not only turns its face, its own ministers encourage it. Pogroms and murder with absolute impunity.

While I have everyone's attention, the genocide happening in Palestine -- in Gaza AND the West Bank -- is a crime against humanity. Please raise your voice in defense of Palestinian lives. They are depending on us to remind those with power that they have a right to live.

“You enter legally, and suddenly, because of someone else’s whim, you’re illegal. It doesn’t make sense.” I wrote about the hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan TPS holders losing legal status overnight as a result of the Trump administration's mass deportation push.
