Anybody who is like “Piracy is activism!”—trust me, supporting your local library is about 1000% more effective activism, and it’s still free for you and authors still get paid!

I've spent a lot of time, publicly and privately, trying to educate folks on why they should leave S*bstack. But I've mostly focused on the writers and creators POSTING on there. I didn't realize the readers/users were so married to hanging out at the nazi bar.

he fell victim to one of the classic blunders! the most famous of which is, ‘never answer the phone for isaac chotiner,’ but only slightly less well-known is this: ‘never behave in a manner which causes derek guy to critique your fashion choices’
can't believe this ancient mesopotamia shoe wearing ass said people need to dress up at the airport

so, somewhat of a life update:

after a lifetime of mostly just being mean/abusive towards me and her two stepdaughters in private such that we barely believed *ourselves* it was going on,

my mother is now mean in front of everyone, so they all now understand why I left

We as a country must dedicate our entire national energy to making sure that Ryan Murphy does not make a mini series about Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza.

It ain’t the first time RFK has prompted this kind of enemy of my enemy statement, but it’s good to see each time.

Hi, James Carville here, I am TERRIFIED of the RABID WILD DOGS Chuck Schumer has sicced on me in this HAUNTED FOREST I've been banished to.

To keep my fight for survival going, would you donate $10 to ActBlue right now?
What if Dems ran on sacrificing James Carville's human rights?

something i'll note is that if nuzzi ran catch-and-kill ops for rfk jr and lizza knew this prior to him being appointed as HHS, and instead of telling anyone, he decided to save it for his substack long after rfk jr had made communicable disease into federal policy, that's completely fucked

The **chief justice of the Rhode Island Supreme Court** called to expand virtual hearings —citing this incident where ICE threatened to smash the window of a judge’s car — because people who work at the courthouses are no longer safe

people are reading "catch-and-kill" in the journalistic sense but she was probably just finding raccoons for him to eat

even people who lionize *all* of the kennedys think there's a fucking curse, you don't need a journalism background to know it's a really bad idea to get involved and the women die way too often

(the curse is privilege leading to hubris leading to dead women)

Sexting with a Presidential candidate that you're supposed to be covering for your journalism job is the kind of thing that ONLY happens if there have been previous incidents where you broke the rules and got away with it

Watching people who didn't know Alice use her and use her death for their own ends in a way that necessitates the erasure of her agency is really ... fucked.

The thing about the latest news in the Nuzzi/Lizza story is that RFK cost the nation its measles elimination status.
"Heck of a job, Bobby."

"If the outbreaks cannot be extinguished by January, the anniversary of the first cases in Texas, the United States will lose what is known as “elimination status” as determined by the World Health Organization."
