Trying to learn how to make small talk. Otherwise I'm listening to Wilco, Belle & Sebastian, or Yo La Tengo; reading; being an alright dad; or negotiating with my dog.

I choose to believe the Mamdani and MTG things happened because I listened to The Stone Roses for the first time ever today, and my reaction caused a disturbance to the fabric of the universe.

I have a super catholic aunt who's also super into Trump, and I'd be lying if I didn't admit I take a petty, little delight in how torn she must be right now.

I'm donating to any decent candidate who primaries any Dem who caves at this point without a clear deal on ACA or other something as substantial.
Also, good to know @schumer.senate.gov is a no, but as minority leader, he should have the other senators in line.

I get there's a lot of racism and hatred for people in poverty, but it breaks my brain that nobody in the GOP is like "Maybe the optics of going out of our way deny food to hungry people, families, and children is not the best look."

I somehow lucked into seeing a 2nd show of David Byrnes tour a month after my 1st one.
I can’t recommend seeing this show enough, and if you do, try to get a seat you can see the stage floor from.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I usually hate things like calling it "The Epstein Ballroom" because I think those kinda things (TACO for example) stand in for doing anything real and ride the line between clever and dumb but I love that we're calling it "The Epstein Ballroom."

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.
