Reading makes you a better person. Writing, however, and writing fiction in particular, makes you a far, far worse person. If you're a fiction writer who doesn't read then God help you.

Not only a better writer, reading simply makes you a better person, period.

Among many delights in last night's results: transphobia lost. All you wussy Dems who were willing, eager even, to compromise on this—the normies are more humane than you.

Earnest take: I think it’s probably not healthy for the practice of democratic self-government that so many people have developed strong rooting interests in elections in countries they don’t live in.

In NYC-DSA's democracy, electeds and members are equals. I'm proud to organize with Groundwork and run on their slate for convention this year. GW is committed to growing DSA into an org as multiracial and powerful as the World's Borough. Vote Groundwork by midnight tonight!

We’re excited to announce the Socialists Must Lead slate for City Convention! Socialists Must Lead (Groundwork & Friends) sees 2028 as the biggest opening socialists have had in generations, and NYC-DSA needs to be ready to run AOC for president and a socialist cadre for Senate.
