I wrote about how fans are now content producers and artists are fans of art because all of us are just workers in a world where billionaires have taken art and culture hostage. https://slate.com/culture/2023/08/writers-actors-strike-sag-aftra-wga-hollywood-fans-scabbing-solidarity.html

A simple approach to public safety (more police = less crime) is seductive.

But it’s not true.

As @radleybalko.bsky.social notes, US-wide police staffing shortages exist alongside a likely historic drop in homicides this year.

People with guns don’t keep us safe. Healthy & just communities do.
I have a piece in The NYT this morning. When a Minneapolis suburb hired a Black chief and assistant chief, over half the department quit. Yet the world didn’t end.

When cops would rather quit than respect the wishes of the communities they serve, maybe it’s okay to let them go.

Got my first photos in the New York Times Magazine. The story haunts me. Went to see Jade last month, they wouldn’t let me in to see her.

Sorry I’m not responding to your emails, I can’t put on pants because all my clothes feel vile against my skin, and the idea of my computer chair against my bare flesh makes me nauseated.

Okay, sure, but have you ever experienced the existential despair of Canned Tamales? I've literally never regretted putting anything in my mouth more than the time I tried these.

Thank you Morning Joe for having me on talk about the lifting of Title 42.

Yes. Its about making sure there is a secure border. But its also about humanity and understanding the journey of these immigrants and asylum seekers.

As expected the CNN town hall turned into a long Trump campaign ad full of lies with fans clapping and laughing at everything from rape comments to threats to democracy to family separation.

A stark reminder of what some networks will do to get views, and what a threat Trump is to our freedom.
