It’s time for my annual re-reading of the “hey ladies” series on @TheToast + the book. Bless @CarolineMoss and @michmarkowitz for this awful, amazing creation

Wow. What a year. One of the nicest people in the world. Just as sweet as you would expect her to be. The warmer of greetings as a child seeing her on the set as well as every time in my decades as an adult. Love you Betty. Give my dad a kiss.

Does anyone know any pro-bono immigration lawyers in the US, Canada, or Australia? I’m working with a group that’s helping several Afghan journalists & their families escape the Taliban. DMs are open.

I wrote about Thalia Field’s Personhood for @thenation’s @BooksandtheArts, a work that interrogates how we think about nonhuman life and what we mean by “personhood” in the first place. I took the opportunity to get nerdy about Ruskin’s pathetic fallacy. thenation.com/article/cultur…

As a blood cancer patient, there’s a good chance the vaccine didn’t work for me and that I’m not creating antibodies. (Still got vaxxed of course, because I’m an optimist.) So now I just get to count on my community to get vaccinated so I can stay alive too✌️be cool pls!

My favorite part of voting is voting. My second favorite part is the old person who checks you in, and then the second old person who looks over their shoulder and always says “you went too far in the alphabet!!” and stresses out the first old person

Since the term “normalize” is the trend now, we need to normalize the fact that it’s racist and discriminatory to label things as “ratchet” or “hood” or “ghetto” because it’s associated with melanated people.

Today I got laid off at HuffPost, after a decade of work I am so incredibly proud of. I am one of 47 of my deeply, beautifully, funny and talented and wonderful and kind colleagues who lost their jobs today. I'm the most sad that we can't all hug each other. (Also... hire me?)
