Last time I went to Carnegie Hall, Botstein was conducting. Then he turned up on the list. Now I learn that JE took his victims there? I don’t want the pedos staining Carnegie Hall. Levine & the Met was bad enough. But of course they have stained everything.

No thank you, I’m good.

It’s disgusting that any person—much less a sitting member of the United States Congress—espouses such vitriolic hate & bigotry. Congressman Fine—You’re a disgrace to this country & the office you hold. Resign.

Don’t let Jordan’s suffering be for naught. Read this thread.

I watched it. It’s clearly an execution. You don’t need to watch.

This thread 💯. As is often the case, Micah expresses my own thoughts better than I could.

"John Henry Frontage was Eisenhower's Secretary of Transportation, who realized that the interstate highway system was going to need a system of secondary roads in order to function. These 'Frontage roads' greatly increased the cost, but also the usability, of the highways."

I’m fairly certain that if somebody organized a “Fuck you Nekrotzar” rally, it would not get 7 million participants.

For reasons, I saw Dylan live several times in the 90s, and it always went like this: • strums guitar and makes sounds with throat • a couple of recognizable english words • hey, I know what song this is! • repeat

I hope it has a happy ending.

The survivors support the Massie-Khanna bill, which demands the full release of the Epstein Files. Anything less is an insult to the victims. Speaker Johnson—why won’t you listen to their voices?

I had a professor of Jewish Studies at UChicago who made the administration very angry because every year he made a proposal for the university to create an on-campus memorial to the worldwide victims of the UChicago economics department.

Some of my Democratic colleagues need to understand: this isn’t 1965. Republicans are no longer playing by the rules, so neither will I. Thank you @repmarkdesaulnier.bsky.social for inviting me to talk about how we’re fighting back.‪

He was very good in person with his trans fans too. Growing up going to SF cons, I met many trans people before I even knew what trans meant. I gave my parents very little they needed to accept in their child, so they had lots left over for everyone else. 😉 www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...

So glad my daughter opted to get her masters at a different university (that cost half as much).

When you strip away humanity

A few days ago my dear friend Ed passed away from cancer. Ed was a Marine who served in the Vietnam War. He cared deeply about our country & that's what we talked about every day. His dying wish was to see his awesome cats placed in a good home. DM me if you're interested in 1, 2 or all 3.

one last thing here: mamdani's politics are the literal opposite of zero-sum. "our city is rich and vibrant enough for all of us to prosper" is not zero-sum. "perfidious elites are stealing your birthright from you" — the view of salam's political patrons — is.

Ozzy literally pissed on the Alamo.

In case you missed the deleted posts:

This is an incredible story and a reminder that ethnicities are vague approximations.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent. Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.

I didn’t rank Cuomo. Ok, I live in Massachusetts. BUT I WOULDN’T HAVE

ICE out of fucking control, the organization needs to be completely dismantled NYC: rank this guy first or second with Mamdani

I was an immigration lawyer for about fifteen years. The people I met… the way they wanted to give their absolute best to this country, and then DID. Skills, ideas, beauty, culture… that’s what they bring. America is a nation of immigrants, and immigration is what made America.

Move the World Cup, the Olympics, and every international meeting out of the U.S. It is not safe to come here until conditions change. That's not alarmist. That's the reality we are looking at. It's never been like this my whole, getting to be longish, life.
