Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays: Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink. If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business. Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I've never sobbed uncontrollably at Meadowlark before, and I've easily heard the song a thousand times. Ariana DeBose is just that good. #TheBakersWife #CSC

Just give Joshua Henry all the awards. Then invent new ones to give him. Wow. #Ragtime

Whoever designed the Orlando International Airport had a twisted sense of humor.

It's not too late to vote early--and if you vote today, you'll get this extra-cool sticker! Find your polling place and go!

This could be fascinating. Depending on who gets it next, the title of Duke of York could be passed from a father to a son for the first time since the 1400s.

Take a lesson from the Black Panthers who understood how to feed people

This! Excellent work, @catcardenas.bsky.social!

ZERO arrests at No Kings in NYC. (And the NYPD isn’t notorious for being sympathetic with people anti-Trump.) This proves what shameless liars Speaker Mike Johnson & Karoline Leavitt are to slander the participants as violent anarchists.

Reposting to remind myself next time I get cynical and mean-spirited. (And let's be honest--when am I not cynical and mean-spirited?)

Great, cheerful #NoKings crowd lining the streets in Bethlehem, Pa., and lots of cars honking as they go by.

I might not find some political activism that compelling but I try to keep in mind Kwame Ture's point: "You don't criticize somebody who's doing something when you doing nothing."

I’ve been thinking about Kiss of the Spider Woman since Friday. For all its challenges, it’s amazing how a story from nearly 50 years ago feels so timely and relevant today.

Next month, voters will head to the polls for a contest that could have huge implications for the future of fair elections in the Keystone State — which means for the next presidential election, too. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/why...

You gotta put down the ducky if you wanna play the saxophone (honored to be quoted)

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising. Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

Oh no...

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

BREAKING: Per MSNBC, Nexstar has ALSO CAVED and will stop preempting Jimmy Kimmel Live! Way to go, everyone!

My employer New York Public Radio just announced that it is offering @onthemedia.bsky.social, @radiolab.bsky.social, and other programs to at-risk public radio stations for free! More info: current.org/2025/09/wnyc...

Kimmel: "Disney has asked me to read the following statement and I agreed to do it. 'To reactivate your Disney+ and Hulu account ... '"

May we all be written in the book of strong coffee, good friends, a peaceful life, and a winning Mets ❤️❤️

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Just a reminder that a staggering number of Black women have also lost their jobs due to capitulation to this administration. That deserves more outrage.

Some people on the left think just repeating “Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” frees them from the work of thinking critically about what is and is not antisemitic. And a whole lot of people on the right think being a strong Zionist functions as a “get out of antisemitism free card.”

Very interesting insight.

as always i encourage u all not to post things that may attract the attention of an authoritarian secret police with unlimited power to surveil american citizens at this time

please do not post things you don’t want to see on The Free Press and Fox News later this evening

NASA scheduled a major workshop for early career researchers during the most important week of the Jewish calendar, during two of the most important days of that week and expects me to accept that this was “difficult scheduling conflicts” That’s what casual antisemitism sounds like

Misogyny would explain both, but unfortunately it’s illegal to suggest people really really hate women

You know what's crazy? There have been no op-eds or editorial statements in major newspapers this year calling on Trump to resign. None calling for his impeachment. None asking if he's medically fit to be in office. Not one in any major newspaper all year.

As someone who grew up in old-school Jersey, this feels so amateur.

I'm really pleased with how many elements from the 1990 workshop version of the Kiss of the Spider Woman musical will be in the upcoming film. Some great moments that were lost to the cutting room floor as the show evolved will be seen again, and that's pretty exciting.

"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.

Hey, just checking -- have the Epstein files been released yet?

Amazing how peak masculinity for a Republican is swearing that you’re too afraid to go outside

I've been thinking about this comment about AI for much of the day. Really hits the nail on the head.

3 August 1902 | German Jewish woman Regina Jonas was born in Berlin. In 1935 she became the 1st woman ordained as a rabbi by the liberal rabbi Max Dienemann. Arrested in Nov 1942 she was deported to Theresienstadt & in mid-October 1944 deported to #Auschwitz where she perished.

Best deal in streaming, hands down.

All the pigeons in the park are breathing a sigh of relief. Thank you for the music and laughs, Tom Lehrer.

An initiative launched last year by Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has now erased $429 million in medical debt for 352,000 Arizonans. Elections matter. www.abc15.com/news/state/m...

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

Stephen Colbert wouldn't bend the knee. There are no words for my admiration--and this makes my decision to cancel my Paramount+ subscription much easier.

Damnit. It should have run for years.

All Biden had to do…NOPE. All Harris had to do…NOPE. All you had to do was vote against the man that literally said he was going to be a dictator on day one. Fuck all the other sideshow bs…he literally told you what he was going to do. Him saying that should have been the only messaging needed.

1977: why would the bartender in star wars even care if some robots with artificial intelligence came into his bar 2025: ohhh ok

It’s honestly so disrespectful and irresponsible that the national media has mostly ignored the DC33 city worker strike in Philly so far. It’s a huge story with massive implications for the 6th biggest city in the country. Hell, I’ll write about it for ya! Email me! www.inquirer.com/politics/phi...

Not a single one of those missing children in Texas voted for Trump.
