Me too! See y’all there 📚

Here to report that your 40s don’t feel much less confusing than your 30s but that’s probably ok or just a me problem

I don't think LA has much over on us, but being able to yell along to this on the dancefloor in a goth bar on their 80s/darkwave night really got me youtu.be/yG7MPEQm1-w?...

I’ve peeled a lot of skin off my thumb and eaten a bunch of leftover Halloween starbursts, it’s only Monday

Times are trying but I carved a little pumpkin tonight 🎃

Stuart Gordon’s Dolls but with squishmallows just because I want to see what I’d look like as a squishmallow

I hear there’s giveaways and games! if you’re at BBF you should stop by 🤗📚

I fucking knew it.

I love my stupid filthy city and more won my less stupid, marginally less filthy neighborhood

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

ProPublica is a national treasure living up to its name. Speaking truth both to power and to us all.

oh ok ok cool cool NBC BLK in particular was a great home for nonfiction books coverage and I’ve worked with all of these outlets over the years, I hope for the best for all the talented teams behind them

I’m boosting tf out of the PVD economy today, have gotten new earrings and necklace, 2 tattoos, and a dope We Buy Haunted Houses long sleeve tee

New England Wegmans might be my spiritual heir to the Red Hook Fairway (RIP)

I wonder if I’ll ever not feel confused

Every October I wanna go see Type O Negative and I cannot but I will never not google the band the first week of the month like clockwork

weeping at how Minnie Bruce Pratt described falling in love with Leslie Feinberg

Been gone from home for two weeks as of tomorrow, I miss Hot Bagel

actually living my best life in the suburbs, drinking mezcal and making soup

subway graffiti remains undefeated

A message from Assata Shakur's daughter, Kakuya Shakur:

While out walking the dog I’m watching this morning I passed a woman in athleisure pushing a double wide stroller listening to the Daily on her phone/a speaker, I guess this is the suburban Boston version of those dudes who listen to their music on speakers on the subway

NJ PBS shutting down next summer. “15yrs ago Gov. Christie ended 4 decades of state funding for public TV, forcing them to find a new funder. The state cut $750k in funding this yr, but that was hardly the fatal blow; that came from the end of federal funds.” newjerseyglobe.com/media/new-je...

I hate having nightmares so much. Having nightmares and waking up with a new pimple seems like extra punishment

I really really need to stop picking the skin on my thumb again

50 years after Jaws nearly destroyed Spielberg's career, a new exhibit spotlights the groundbreaking film.

Half my coworkers at Taco Bell are homeless. Some live in their cars. One guy literally lives under a bridge. Apartments around here start at $2000/mo but I could rent a dilapidated trailer with plastic sheeting for doors for $850/mo

JEFF HILLER!

"I just want to say, go birds, fuck ICE and free Palestine," "Hacks" star Hannah Einbinder at the #Emmys

this is where it winds up, all the small comments about how “he had a family” etc it all balls up into a ratking of this

I cited actual Kirk quotes where he calls Black women less intelligent, demonizes me for being Muslim, & dehumanizes LGBTQ people—& his supporters are upset at me for “speaking evil of the dead.” If quoting him is “speaking evil” maybe ask yourself why you followed someone who believed evil things.

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

I am so excited for all the “apolitical” women lamenting the fate of CK’s widow as a new single mom in need, to start doing community work with the many people who have lost their spouses to gun violence, had them taken by ICE, killed by the police, etc.

“I’m getting so many labubus on this tour.” - Ethel Cain last night at kings theater

suddenly decided instead of feeling despair and complaining I should appreciate the things I do have. I like my apt in which I live with a friend, in my city that I love. I have increased my gym days lately. It’s almost our brief fall.

The 2025 tour dates for The Coroner’s Silence - a must read for abolitionists and anyone who wants to learn more about how coroners and other death investigators can be complicit in obscuring the violent nature of deaths that occur while in police custody.

I made my album Songs 2014-2022 now $2 or more for #BandcampFriday. Just $2 for 25 tracks of weird pop, in reverse chronological order. Cool time to support trans art in general 😎 by listening to it or talking about it and/or paying money for it 🤷‍♀️ theknightdreams.bandcamp.com/album/songs-...

I'm so stoked for this year's Literarian Award recipient, the one, the only @roxanegay.bsky.social www.nationalbook.org/national-boo...

the icon, the legend 🥳

As more of my favorite spots close I feel bad not just because I’ll miss them, but also because I know I haven’t patronized them as much as I wanted

Thinking about how rich people with generational wealth purchased so much good real estate decades and decades ago

if he dies i'm gonna get so fuckin trashed

I don’t know if it’s the past 48 hours or some nightmares I’ve had lately or I’ve suffered some kind of brain event, but the idea of monogamy with a deeply caring person sounds kind of ok

We were going to do another big marketing stunt for THE TOXIC AVENGER UNRATED. Instead, Toxie, whose life was upended by crushing medical bills, has joined forces with Undue Medical Debt to erase at least $5 million in un-payable medical debt for those who need it most. Learn more:

Wegmans in the suburbs goes hard

Thinking about the lovely tinned fish dinner, with cod bake from Portugalia I had last night. Summertime ease with friends after a long day 🥰

The housing crisis is requiring creative scrambling and new partnerships from health care organizations to keep older patients out of expensive nursing homes as homelessness grows.

This is beyond the pale. We seriously need no more reasons to resist & refuse AI.
