I'm attending Indivisible's event, “Storytelling, World Building, and Establishing a Better United States” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

My friend’s mother’s 1946 fantasy novel is back in print—including the chapters the publishers thought were “too scary” for kids!

if an adult plays the trombone in the peanuts universe it sounds like words

Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think

It’s not a plot hole that Elmo has been 3 years old for 50 years. He was bitten by The Count, willingly. Elmo asked for the Dark Gift

NYC! 🏳️‍🌈Thursday at 4pm 🏳️‍🌈

RIP to a legend variety.com/2026/film/ne...

My rabbi's somewhere in there!

One of the best things I've ever done. Got this pic of Captain Hook on a program field trip

Pam Bondi is under fire, but she has her Al Pacino-like stoicism to protect her.

Strongly agree.

Very fond of this Mr Hyde by Grickle, look at that lovely Mr Hyde face

An incredible turn of events here. 10/10, no notes. 😂

fucking horrible. V for Vendetta shit. hell is not hot enough

birnham wood came to dunsinane

This singed my eyelashes off.

My goal as a parent was always to raise better men than me I just received a video from one son of my other son juggling dildos outside the Whipple Building There are many things I could have done better but I can't really argue with the results

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

Nick Davis has directed a FANTASTIC documentary about Godspell and the evolution of Canadian Comedy. You Had To Be There includes remarkable archival material provided by Martin Short and input from all cast members. EXTREMELY entertaining. Soon to have a theatrical run - don’t miss it!

Certified banger. I cackled so loud my neighbor banged on the ceiling.

The true reason for the season.

Relax, bread department

Gatsbyesque

It's spaghetti al'assassina time.

Teaching almost 30 years and observations still stress me out.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

If you're a Broadway fan/nerd/devotee - and I know some of you are - a high school classmate of mine is part of putting together a 3-day festival this August, featuring Audra McDonald, Norbert Leo Butz, Jesse L Martin, Anthony Rapp and a bunch of other theater luminaries: broadwayfest.com

"The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone."

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

🧵

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

Today is, among other things, a reminder that you don't get a general strike by posting that we should have a general strike. You get a general strike—on the rare occasions you do—by the long slow slog of building organizing power with those around you in response to local conditions.

Nailed the joke

somebody said that everyone in this Peanuts strip is correct and I think about that—and the strip—a lot.

NYC is forecasted to get 3–16 inches of snow this weekend. And we’re ready. We’ll issue a Code Blue later today, and outreach workers will ramp up efforts to connect unhoused New Yorkers to safe shelter.

If you're only reading headlines and see "Trump Says He Won't Use Force" it will give you a misimpression of both how bellicose this speech is and how dug in he is on Greenland.

A game store in St Paul is being targeted for exercising their free speech. Keep them in mind when shopping!

Right on cue, here are the push alerts from the 3 major newspapers lmao

This looks fascinating. www.gmtgames.com/p-953-cross-...

The trick to living in Roku City is that you have to live on the right side of the Roku River. The nearest bank has pachinko parlors, international cuisine, and art deco movie palaces. The farthest shore is all volcanos, Godzilla, and UFO attacks.

Pro tip: next time you've got two doctors appointments in the same neighborhood within 90 minutes of each other, find the place that serves Golden Sour and Spicy Fish Soup.
