I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee.

I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

This is perhaps pedantic, but in a sign of how vapid and superficial these folks' engagement with antiquity is, they're giving a 'Bellator' award with a Latin name - a word the Romans rarely ever apply to their own (or Greek) soldiers - featuring the image of a Greek helmet the Romans didn't use.

My latest premium newsletter is about the failure of the anti-Mamdani media blitz, and what it says about the decaying influence of The New York Times.

Capitalism is good. Capitalism is right, capitalism works. Capitalism clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Capitalism will win.
If you think central planning China can compete with buggy, unoptimized Al chips that crash all the time guzzling power against American ingenuity, the smartest Al researchers in the world, and hundreds of billions of annual capex spending from the most profitable companies in history, good luck with that.

Mamdani accurately links climate to affordability. Like most Democrats, he got the memo to emphasize the latter, which is how many peoples' concerns about the climate manifest. His platform includes climate, renewables, green schools, free buses, etc.

Nos han bombardeado tanto con todas las variaciones del «es burdo, pero vamos con ello» que hay gente a la que le cuesta entender un principio elemental del periodismo: antes de publicar una información, un periodista tiene que someterla a una serie de diligencias para comprobar que es verídica.

Friends— here it is. Updated & expanded thanks to the space afforded to me in the @therumpus.net & the guidance of the brilliant @roxanegay.bsky.social’s edits. The win centers Muslims humanity — but what does that mean in a country that rejects that?

image of andrew cuomo at his nyc mayoral election watch party with disco elysium ui text overlay that reads:

Suggestion [Challenging: Failure] - You thought you did everything right. You had the money, the power, and the fame. Where did it all go wrong? Why couldn't those sniveling little city dwellers see that you were meant to lead them? You're now a twice certified loser from a family of winners. Your father's name is on a bridge. Your name is next to a Wikipedia entry that says "sexual harassment allegations."

New York Times, New York Post y Wall Street Journal no han podido evitar que Mamdani sea alcalde de New York.

El mensaje es claro: hay que reformular el periodismo de arriba a abajo, este ya no sirve.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Zohran Mamdani polled +40% on men under 30. So we wasted all that time on all those think pieces about how we need a Joe Rogan for the left, when what we actually needed were *policies* for the left.

A Journalist Asked Why Israel Isn’t Paying to Rebuild Gaza. It Cost Him His Job. Italy’s Nova news agency confirmed it let reporter Gabriele Nunziati go for asking a European official about Israel at a press conference.

The reasoning by Nova makes no sense in English either. theintercept.com/2025/11/04/j...

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

‘If it was anybody else, we’d arrest him tomorrow,' Justice Department aide said of Trump A handful of documents found by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago were so sensitive that even a senior Justice Department official didn’t have authorization to see them.

Wow. “If it was anybody else, we’d arrest him tomorrow,”Justice Department aide said of Trump. “A handful of documents found by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago were so sensitive that even a senior Justice Dept official didn’t have authorization to see them.”
