It's hard but really important to keep making new friends as an adult so that you always have a fresh crop of people willing to listen to you complain about stuff your oldest friends are sick of hearing about.

I read the NYT piece, and I am holding onto the words of a woman who fended off inappropriate advances from a 60-year-old Cesar Chavez at the age of 19. “It makes you rethink in history all those heroes,” Esmeralda Lopez said. “The movement — that’s the hero.”

We obviously can't erase the damage that Cesar Chavez did on his victims and their children, but we damn sure can erase his name off of all of these schools, monuments and the life that his name is on. We shouldn't celebrate someone like that.

It's telling to me that on the same day the Cesar Chavez revelations have dropped I have someone in my mentions trying to defend Al Franken. Sexual assault should never be tolerated anywhere, but especially in halls of leadership. If you cannot stand by that principle you cannot stand by anything.

One unabashed generational prejudice that I do have is against zoomer TikTok euphemism speak. ‘Unalive’, ‘SAed’, and ‘grape’. Fuck you. Talk like a goddamn adult.

🧵 Five reasons #NCAAGym needs to eliminate exhibition routines. 1. At some point we have to decide what we want this sport to be. Is it a high-level, pressure-packed team competition or is it a loosely structured showcase?

Surely we understand by now that men are psychologically unsuited for sports.

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

You should not be working on the railroad all the live-long day, nor should you be working on the railroad just to pass the time away. You should be working on the railroad for the duration of a reasonable shift, for fair wages.

There seems to be a lot of discussion about Gavin Newsom today. I wanted to re-share this piece that I wrote, because I have a lot of center-to-left Dems that follow me that want to understand. There are very good reasons transgender people do not like Gavin Newsom.

One of my most cherished annual American traditions: Experiencing that thing I don't care about through your posts while I watch a movie or something.

man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you
