It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

New York has her back.

Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

Thank you so much! Off to add to queue. 😁🥰

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of knitting I’ve ever seen. I hope you do finish it and share, but I get that tastes vary. Who’s the designer?

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.

[they told her to be small, so]

she magicked the moon
into the milk she takes with her tea

wisped into a peckish wind
and swallowed a tasty sea

borrowed all the greening leaves
from every grounded tree

murdered all the chiming clocks
to finally set us free

I just spent my weekend writhing in pain trying to get my rib back in place because I contorted my body around a cat in my sleep. It’s a 20 year old injury that gets easier and easier to flare.

They’re on DoorDash where I live. The substitutions are usually pretty relevant, occasionally odd (still food in the same section, but not a direct parallel)… To get to the fun stuff, there’s a different screen you have to find. It won’t show up if you’re just scrolling.

My exact political microgeneration is such that my top two triggers are bipartisan Islamophobia and Clintons telling me what to do so this week has been very affirming

It’s both. It’s absolutely both.

If you ever get a chance to hear Kaveh Akbar read, take it and bring your friends. I was lucky enough to attend an author talk for this book, and it was such a beautiful experience.

One of the worst clinic harassers at the former abortion clinic in my hometown died and you can get your donation to Just The Pill matched in her honor tonight only fund.nnaf.org/fundraiser/6...

I am. What are you seeing that I’m not?

Is it? The crease lines aren’t raised, except the life line around the thenar eminence.

How is that possible, if the surface is raised? An impression would leave the negative — to get this, you’d need to intentionally create a new positive, using the original, dried impression as a mold.

Murphy: "There's no guarantee that we are gonna have a free and fair election in 2026. He's trying to rig our democracy, to destroy dissent, to cripple the opposition, so that even if his approval ratings are in the 30s next year, there isn't the ability for his opposition to muster a real campaign"

My love of reading is strongly link to this man…

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the texture and the fit.

My chomper had an epiphany that she hurts me, so when she gets too overstimulated and tempted to be aggressive, she rolls over and bunny kicks her own feet until it passes. It looks a bit like she’s using emphatic hand gestures to tell me to fuck off, but so cute.

There was a Nepali restaurant in Minneapolis that had the most phenomenal bison mamacha, and they also had hands down the best chai I’ve had in the US. I’m also haunted by the Russian punch cake at Demel in Salzburg. I don’t even like cake most of the time, but this made me want to cry.

I’m so happy you find it helpful! I learned it in massage school.

Ignore if not helpful, but something that can help deepen a stretch while reducing the chance of injury is to stretch to the first point of mild tension, squeeze the muscle and release, then deepen. It interrupts a reflex to resist the stretch.

I have never wanted to move to Illinois before, but this has me thinking about Tetris-ing my stash into a box truck. I hope you get all the support you need for election!

Elara is currently Benini, and she just turned two, my little prodigy.

Andrew Chen, co-founder of one of my favorite denim brands, 3sixteen, breaks down how the tariffs affect his company

IG 3sixteen

I have tariffed
the penguins
that are on
Heard Island

and which
you were probably
assuming
did not export goods

forgive me
they were taking advantage of us
so cunning
and so cold

Wishing you all the right for you support throughout.

100%. I live in a red state. Being visible to people who are feeling shaken and isolated has been so powerful, because our community has grown so strong and cohesive since the election.
