You put inept people in charge, you get inept.

Honestly, I don’t want to hear my priest or rabbi or ímam endorse someone or some party—particularly if I don’t agree. In a holy space I want to feel the spiritual, not the profane.

$5.99 a gallon of regular in Mt Kisco — or was it Bedford?— yesterday.

Protect and defend editorial cartoonists this World Press Freedom Day

So much easier to drive in Manhattan with congestion pricing. Freedom from being stuck in traffic.

Consider that Columbus likely got expelled Jews and the recently converted out of the country before they could be declared heretics.

A Ticking Clock on American Freedom It’s later than you think, but it’s not too late.

"Look around, take stock of where you are, and know this: Today, right now—and I mean right this second—you have the most power you’ll ever have in the current fight against authoritarianism in America."

Hmm. Just like Germany built their camps in Poland.

A quote from the novelist Katie Kitamura that reads, “Novels and writing in general feel incredibly important, because it is already clear, in the new Administration, that language is going to be a terrain where a substantial part of this battle is going to be fought: what language people are allowed to use, how language is manipulated or denuded of meaning. I think what writers do or can try to do is to use language with precision and care.”

“When words stop meaning what they’re meant to mean, then we’re in trouble.” In a new interview, the novelist Katie Kitamura talks about why writing is particularly important right now.

Oh, wonderful!!

NYC.

Nobody is coming to save us but us.

Yesterday I launched my campaign for U.S. Senate because we deserve – and we need – a new path.

We’ll be there at the livestream.

Amen to Delaware AG Kathy Jennings’ open letter to BigLaw 100:

Just got a hotdog from a Midtown vendor who asked me, Is this for here or to go?

Wow.

Very weird first paragraph.

Wisconsin, you know what NOT to do.

We were just saying that in so many words as we made our morning coffee.

I’m having nightmares.

But it’s still only March!!

Haven’t had to carry these in the past. Only a state issued driver’s license. If there is a new law the public needs to know. (Planned to carry my passport after May when the new law was supposed to go into effect).
