I hear you and agree — I just want like to make sure it’s clear how duplicitous these mofos are lol. They took advantage of crisis for selfish gain and it’s part of why we’re here. Trump thinks he can manufacture a crisis response because it’s been done before.

When was there a labor dispute, do you know? It’s been insane here up until like, last week (and im still treating the timeliness this werk as an aberration. keeping my expectations low - adhd mantra. but also it’s baddd)

This makes it sound like it was a generous extension from a place of compassion rather than the strategic exploitation that it was. Surveillance states love them some trauma.

This is the most in-love post I’ve ever seen on this app

oh hahah dope. (i joined virtually last time cuz I have writing group just before on mondays - was v cool!)

I feel bad for all of us who have to be good at our jobs when the answer is to be sufficiently white, rich and powerful and then you can just drool on yourself and the press will be like “audiences intrigued by his unusual communication style”

pls tell me you’re coming to the next torah study!!!

😄 Appreciate you and your OBB ~enormously~! 🫶

the life of a DIVA!

calling all sexy jewesses! sisters - it is time to cabal up & use our cosmic tatas to space-laser-blast these losers’ scrota clean off — dong, sack, even anus & taint. leave them with the diabolical ghost itch of inaccessible pleasures & the hot-garbage stink of their own wretched company. dayenu.

(I’m learning French — total beginner, hence the double subtitles.)

It’s a tight contest for which one of these I’d want to experience live as a crowd chant…

Cheered me up as I was solo blobbin sick at home! Thankful 🙂 En stor plump! En stor plump!

Hoppin on socials for the sole purpose of sharing this French translation of a bit from Old Baby with @mariabamford.bsky.social: “Un gros pâté! Un gros pâté!”

For fun, I tried other translations, including Romanian and Swedish (see screenshots).

There was no translation in German, which tracks?

You may have heard: Our editor-in-chief, @arielleangel.bsky.social, is moving into an editor-at-large role this spring.

We are in an active search to find our next editor-in-chief—please pass this along to anyone you think may be a good fit for the position!

I’ve never seen Sunday in the Park with George, but the recording just came on. 1st — Steven fucking Sondheim, you bastard 😭. Second — from the few songs I’ve listened to (Mandy Patinkin & Bernadette Peters!), you really need two “Georges” for such a romance to work. And women need to be free.

zohran rly said it’s cuffing season (getting closer to your neighbors, making sure everyone is warm and fed, etc.)

Ben was def being sarcastic. We don’t have time. The right is certainly not taking it.

same same saaame!!! 🫶

1) Miista raised their prices because of Trump’s tariffs. 2) They don’t use sweatshop labor and are beautifully made and will last years. 3) Ppl who run these headlines know exactly what they’re doing. (Meanwhile, at Mar-a-Lago…)

*muttering* Simpsons-ass clouds

(Happy 2026! It’s a beautiful, unprecedented New Year’s Day in NYC!)

hell yeah — follow. who needs religion — kate bush and leonard cohen are everythinggg.

what a weird / cool way to find my people on bluesky!

“he is bigger and wilder than rome.” not christian, but this is beautiful (as an orientation toward any divine figure or gospel). it is ironic, however, because i think he’s trying to make the same argument, except the office (via sect) becomes the holding metaphor for divine continuity. yikes

this is the BEST idea for holiday gifts!!!

I had one week where I played with dialectical reasoning “emergence” with Claude (sorry to my fellow leftists. I’m into language and I got pulled in…) and eventually I was like, “not sure if ‘through the looking glass’ or just mirror.” Claude was very affirming of this revelation, of course.

“hey baby, did you know that objects entail the possibility of every possible circumstance?”

It’s giving Breathless. I’d bet my house* that he watches Lupin.
