It’s always funny to remember how deeply unpopular these gross little fascist hobby-horses actually are. No one signs your petition because no one thinks what you’re doing is correct or worthwhile

Hamas offered to return all the hostages in exchange for the IDF not intervening in Gaza on October 9, 2023

Joshua Minsoo Kim What comes to be recognized as “good taste” is often a function of how well someone has written about it.

Newspapers of record still acting as though Israel “detains” civilians and Palestinians “take hostages.” Thousands of Palestinians are in jail indefinitely, without charges. There are many left, including scores of children. And more will be taken in the future 😡

D’Angelo was probably the most captivating singer of my lifetime, three perfect albums, a voice that sounded like cream in the center of a pastry, his arrangements made 1970 and 2000 and 2014 feel like it all existed in a mysterious and every-lengthening continuum of music. RIP

Delighted to be reading some poetry with these fine folks on Saturday night. Be there or be 🟪

I already voted for him so I get to say this: It’s pathetic to concede on defunding the police and decriminalizing misdemeanors, and there will be a reckoning on this, whether he wants it or not. Too bad for him and parts of the DSA who want to wish away criticism.

Hope Zohran uses this as a reason to drop his disappointing pledge to keep on such a pathetic leader of the corrupt, excessive, fascist NYPD! Would be great if the left abandoned campaign promises for centrist voters, just as centrists jettison promises that appease the left
