I’m not going to take the turkey out of the freezer until it’s defrosted.

So basically, we're now facing widespread hunger because a lot of people don't think the self employed deserve access to affordable health insurance.

Saw a social media person describe early 2000s low rise jeans she was about to try as "historically accurate." Yes we all wore low rise pants, but we were also all vaccinated, so joke's on you young people.

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

Another violent attack by an ICE officer on a civilian at 26 Federal Plaza—this time on a journalist, who had to be carried out on stretcher. Another attack on the First Amendment, our neighbors, and our democracy.

everyone up in arms about the shutdown...unless you were up in arms about some of your fellow Americans paying like 1K/month for health insurance, please just stop

It seems pretty clear at this point that any real critical media — journalistic, artistic, you name it — is going to have to come from a place independent of the handful of oligarchic corporations consolidating power. Luckily the infrastructure to build that out exists. But the funding??

Someone should write an essay about healthcare tax credits through the lens of both parties' perception of small biz owners and independent contractors and freelancers. My down-the-rabbit hole read has been that nobody gives a shit about us (until it's politically helpful) because this group...

just want to give a shout out to @amtrak.com for being awesome. Our NY to FL train was very delayed but everyone on the train was incredibly kind and accommodating. we also received a travel voucher as an apology. this level of service is so much different than how airlines would handle this.

Any freelancer who's not putting "Epstein's client list" in the subject of pitch emails that have nothing whatsoever to do with Epstein is missing out on a great opportunity to increase pitch email open rates. It's finally the time to shop around that idea on haunted whale's milk, people!
