I knew Leah Libresco Sargent (of that Roth Douthat piece yesterday infamy) when she was a feisty, outspoken, progressive teenager. Weird how people change.

maybe silly q: doesn't the curbless sidewalk make it easier for cars to drive onto the sidewalk / hit pedestrians? I'm all in favor of raised crosswalks but I feel like I'm missing something here. (is it just that the cobblestones force cars to go super slow?)

This is basically the entire argument of Caste, but Wilkerson, iirc. Why don’t we have public polls? Bc places like DC filed them with concrete rather than integrate them. Te etc.

closely followed by letting his supporters speak, as the guy did on Brian Lehrer yesterday when he was like "the heads of the State Senate and Assembly pressured him to step down while he was governor and have backed his opponent; this is why Cuomo will be more effective at getting $ from Albany." ?

In the last week, Trump tore down a portion of the White House, claims that a friend of his is paying the military, posted a video of him dumping shit on the American people, demanded hundreds of millions of dollars from DoJ, and unleashed vicious ICE agents on peaceful American cities.

Here’s looking at the lady who swore and said “I fucking hate kids” when my then-8 year old startled her while we were out for a walk (he was playing some game in his head while sort of skipping down the sidewalk). Lady, he heard and understood you and it stung.

Wow I think also some ppl forget that children are, in fact, also *people*. Good grief.

“35/10,” by Sharon Olds
As my skin shows its dry pitting, she opens like a small pale flower on the tip of a cactus
