I quite happily live in a neighborhood where most people do not share my religion, where multiple languages are represented, and where people have come from a lot of different countries. Bigoted assholes always assume everyone else actually shares their bigotries.

Do not watch Sesame Street on Tubi with the subtitles on 😭. I swear, I didn't edit or add anything. Is it hilarious? Yes, but also, they need to fix this immediately. Absolutely incomprehensible and bad

From an interview I did re. publishing/art organizing: I think a lot of people assume they won’t be taken seriously if they do something that isn’t at the invitation of an institution. But we create our own authority for our projects based on the level of seriousness that goes into them.

You've posted a very droll fictional scenario. Please select a response: • A fact about the joke you told, the existence of which forms the premise of it. • Correction of errors I spotted in your imagination.

Whether through impeachment or the 25th Amendment, it’s clear that Donald Trump is dangerously unhinged and must be removed from power.

“Among the 10 largest metro areas in the country, Chicago was one of only four that saw improvements in domestic migration last year.” For the third year in a row, Chicago’s population is on the rise – and it’s no surprise that people are recognizing what makes it the best big city in the nation.

This is missing the key to Section 4 of 25: It can be done immediately. That, in fact, is the word in the amendment. Further action almost surely will be necessary. But now is now. I make this point repeatedly (to the point I thought it redundant) in my piece:

When a 1-unit house is replaced with ONE larger house, the new house is ~3X pricier. When replaced by 5+ houses, each new house will be (on avg) cheaper than the original house.

Change is part of the deal. Will we choose greater physical change, or greater price change?

The NYT should be ignored and shunned until it changes or goes out of business. They’re a perversion of journalism. They should accept a base level of ethical beliefs and standards, and not be ashamed of reporting negatively on those who violate or seek to destroy them.

It's impolite to call Musk a genocidal white nationalist because "civility" in American discourse functions not as a neutral procedural norm but as an asymmetric weapon to shield the powerful from accurate moral characterization while policing the tone of those who object.

If you’re replying with “but Mamdani!” realize you’re saying, “but [generational political talent]!” And my reading of the numbers is that he didn’t need the turnout from the “zero primes” to do it.
