Traitors recap! after a wild episode 8, we broke down the internecine violence in the turret, the unlikely murder, and Rob's terrifying allure with @notalawyer.bsky.social -- plus, we close-read the casting announcement for Chris Harrison's new trad dating show
As @claireefallon.bsky.social said, we’d love to have you on the Love To See It pod to chat “Traitors”!
now *THAT'S* how you give a speech
“Hear me, President Trump, when I say: To get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us.” -- @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social
the first muslim woman being elected to statewide office (in any state!) the day dick cheney died is beautiful
great news for abortion rights in Pennsylvania
So cool to have an election night not exclusively filled with existential dread. This hope thing feels pretty nice.
It's a great day to vote down the WFP line in New York City if you haven't already!
This nation is in such a dark place.
Always love chatting with the brilliant @gibsonoma.bsky.social
I hit the mean streets of the Upper East Side with @dreamfornyc.bsky.social to see how voters in Cuomo Country really feel about Trump, Musk, harassing women (allegedly), and how many politicians it takes to fail New York's public schools.
concur. extremely annoying and unnecessary -- like the current system was working fairly well??
Bret Stephens deserves some respect for finding a salaried position for posting excruciatingly bad and unpopular takes every day. I do that for free!
obviously this guy shouldn’t be within 100 miles of the department of defense but i think it is interesting that none of our Meritocracy Defenders have come out to say that we shouldn’t hand important jobs to plainly unqualified people like hegseth. weird! i wonder what’s different.
unfortunately The Guardian has actual standards and wouldn’t let me say it in the piece 😂
Wrote about the incoming predator-in-chief, and his merry band of sex creeps for @theguardian.com
Nothing will fuck up your placid mood quite like reading that noted crank Dr. Oz will probably be running Medicare!!!!!!
Woke up this morning remembering how, after Kerry's 2004 loss to W, the Democratic party and the press decided it was abortion's fault. When I tell you that this is not an exaggerated memory:
“I have received some guidance to avoid terms, like ‘camps,’” because “some people think it makes us look like Nazis”
Seems like things are gonna be great and normal not at all cartoonishly dystopian!
What an achievement vaccines are. What a monument to our love for each other it is to stare straight into the face of something as horrific and unstoppable as smallpox or measles or polio or cervical cancer and say “You know what, it doesn’t have to be like this.”
HUMANS!
I feel so seen
I have never been more aware of and grateful for my fluoride-filled water

come join me and @emmagray.bsky.social on substack, we take streaming holiday romcoms way too seriously
I think what we all need right now is some good old fashioned horny holiday rom-coms! Enter “Hot Frosty” ☃️ 🥵
@swordsjew.bsky.social’s newsletter is always a delight but this one is really bringing me the energy I need for right now. buttondown.com/theswordandt...
Should I tell Twitter I’m here? I don’t want to inadvertently cause an influx of all the worst accounts on the internet.
Oh so we’re back on here, very cool!
