At New York Presbyterian standing with @nynurses.bsky.social to demand a fair contract now!

Nurses are a critical part of our healthcare infrastructure - hospitals must do everything in their power to protect them. Anything less is a betrayal of our communities.

At every level of government, New Yorkers deserve better than corrupt politicians who think they’re above the law. Both Trump & Cuomo gotta go.

Cuomo and his team can keep courting the right wing - they lost in June and they’ll lose again in November.

seeing Hozier 14 times on the unreal unearth tour (23-25) was one of the wildest and most self indulgent things I’ve ever done but also one of the most joyful. my first show was the live debut of Abstract and he played Abstract last night (and I have an abstract tattoo) is the cherry on top.

hurricane waves were pretty good.
a tall person stands facing the ocean with their back to the camera. They’re wearing a beige rain jacket, white sweatpants and blue shoes and hold a purple umbrella over their head. In the background you can see a skewed lifeguard chair and the foam of white waves. The sky is overcast.

was having a rough week but went with a friend to see the first preview of Twelfth Night at Shakespeare in the Park and gotta say, core memory. How lucky I am. What a pleasure to be reminded of the fact that beautiful experiences are possible.
the delacourte theater stage at sunset, on stage in red light read large words that say “what you will”. There is a string quartet on stage and people sitting in the rows ahead of me. The sky is light blue and Central Park is scene in the background of a stage.

went on a long walk this morning and the views were good.
the lower third of this photo is dark water, above the water is the lower manhattan skyline in the distance as well as warehouses and the industrial waterfront part of south Brooklyn, above the buildings there are clouds of lots of different shapes and a blue sky. Somewhere off the right side, offscreen, the sun shines.

my only commitment to myself in this election cycle was that on Election Day I’d go submerge my body in the Atlantic Ocean. Grateful for mass transit and to live in a city that feels full of possibilities tonight.
