Mozart's Requiem is on the radio and it is the perfect accompaniment while reading political posts

Truly amazing arc for the man who killed Borders

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

"Goodbye To All The 1 Percent"

"The librarian is a seeker and keeper of truth, and that makes her a dangerous figure in the eyes of those who fear the fullest, most comprehensive, and most uncomfortable truths emerging."

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest. The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says. "I could smell the onions and mustard."

Listening to this 2022 podcast episode is a total delight

Well, shit — a killer new horror bookstore in NYC got flooded and damaged by hurricane remnants. Help is needed if you can. Please share! www.gofundme.com/f/support-th...

Wonder if “Kavanaugh stops” is getting to him and if so, good

Hey @colsonwhitehead.com you definitely have an AI-impersonator sending emails pretending it is you (I've also received similar emails impersonating other authors, so if one is going around with my name on it, please let me know!)

"Curtis Sliwa has a mixed record with matzoh balls" is definitely sending me
