Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders. After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

This is a fun one. Give it a read!

B-M is into this show. I think she’s on S2.

“If anyone *should* show…” would indeed make more sense but also impolitically suggests that NYC bears culpability for Trump, which seems rather unfair anyway.

Anyhow, whatever. It’s a good day.

I read a very good essay about him at one point, forget where, but yeah, this is absolutely on brand. Good guy.

Geez, dude. There I was feeling a little lame for even mentioning it and then you go and write something super-nice like that. Thanks much!

A friend and I finally watched KPOP DEMON HUNTERS last night, then turned our attention to our seasonal pumpkin-carving today. We may have felt inspired. #MovieSky #Kpop #Halloween

I actually wrote the Britannica entry for HEAT. www.britannica.com/topic/Heat-f...

Hebrew calligraphy in dark green stretches in lines across the image. Negative space makes room for a simple representation of an inflatable frog costume with a blue bandana. That shape consists of the English translation of the Hebrew, in a lighter green, and in much smaller text. -- Famously, the Egyptian tyrant causes Egypt to be overrun with frogs because he refuses to free the Hebrew people, but there are additional details that make this a fun one to ponder. For one, the Hebrew says "the frog came up" - ONE frog - even though the rest of the time it says "frogs." So there are a few explanations rabbis have come up with to explain this. One is that a single frog multiplied to create swarms. A more creative explanation is that there was a singular giant frog who traveled and brought destruction. Jewish social media was sharing videos of the Portland Frog protester with the caption, "One Big Frog! One Big Frog!" Of course the frog protesters did multiply, and many were seen in crowds all over the world on "No Kings" Day. This calligraphic work takes the verses addressing the frog plague and combines them to form a simple rendering of the Portland Frog protester. The frog figure itself is made up of the English translations of the Hebrew around it. At the bottom left my signature is in the shape of a lily pad.

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)

As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

"Oxford commas are a sign you write with ai" I will find such a unique way to rip out your spine that they'll make a movie about it

The American Archive of Public Broadcasting has so much cool stuff! It seems that they have really accelerated their digitization projects over the last year or two. americanarchive.org

Oh yeah, I really liked that. Actually I think all of my favorite King books are when he steps a bit outside his wheelhouse: 11/22/63, etc.

I attended Atlanta's #NoKings march yesterday with @dzgrizzle.bsky.social and his boyfriend Michael. We saw @warnock.senate.gov and @staceyabrams.com speak, which was unexpected and cool.

I left feeling energized, but also obligated. Our country's sliding into fascism. We must act. #StopFascism

I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous it is to dismantle our disease surveillance infrastructure.

Happy Brand New Comic Book Day! I got ABSOLUTE BATMAN 12, BATMAN & ROBIN: YEAR ONE 11, ABSOLUTE SUPERMAN 11, and DEADPOOL/BATMAN.

Embarrassingly, I got Marvel’s DEADPOOL/BATMAN thinking it was DC’s Morrison-written BATMAN/DEADPOOL. 🤦‍♂️ Ah, well.

#ncbd #ComicSky #Batman #Deadpool #comics #comicbooks

This is embarrassing for an old fan like me but I mistakenly bought this ($6.99!) comic thinking it was the BATMAN/DEADPOOL book by Grant Morrison. (sigh) I still haven’t read it yet; the only reason the odd team-up appealed was because I knew Morrison would try to do something interesting with it.

Seth Rogen Revives ‘The Muppet Show’ as a Disney+ Special Starring Sabrina Carpenter The 2026 event is meant to serve as a backdoor pilot.

Oh hell yeah. I feel like every attempt to relaunch the Muppets is doomed but I always appreciate the attempts—and coming off THE STUDIO I’m particularly pleased to see Rogen’s name attached. (As for Carpenter, sure, whatever.)

This is a bad idea for all the obvious reasons of, like, integrity and craft. But it’s also a bad idea because instead of just writing the thing yourself, you are instead letting the Convincing Lie Machine see if it can trick you into getting fired because you didn’t fact check every single word

reject booktok culture. go to the library and get a weird little novel you've never heard of in your life and read it all in 2 days like god intended.

Opinion | Charlie Kirk Didn’t Shy Away From Who He Was. We Shouldn’t Either.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“We can mourn Charlie Kirk. We can send prayers to his friends and family,” writes our columnist Jamelle Bouie. “We can — and should — do all of this and more without pretending he was something, as a public figure, that he was not.”
