What do you mean “do I like you?” I bought the fancy bread and TWO cheeses, and I turned the heat up.

I’m not sure they’re for sale, but I will ask!

I’m married to the artist; he’s not on Blue Sky but he would love to send you one if you’d like it. It’s hand-set wooden type on nice paper.

No, but I also have a few of these? I feel like we should consider some sort of clearinghouse of free dissertation ideas people (you, me, other nerds) want to read but don’t want to write themselves.

Your Thursday reminder that when you meet a baby you DON’T actually have to guess their gender. Just say “And who is this tiny perfect person?” Guaranteed no one will ever, ever object.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Right? I felt very upgraded by association.

The First Jew in Canada: A Trans Tale Three lines from this hilarious, tender solo play beamed out to me as the mom of a trans teen

Today I read a review of my new show that described it as, among other very nice compliments: “…if Spalding Gray were alive, and happy.” I’ll take that any day.

This was also my first thought.

Boston friends, check out Bear's show! I was lucky enough to see it last year, and it was such a great evening of storytelling!

Thats so nice, thank you!

this is an amazing storytelling experience, i was just talking it up the other day.

This is a flyer for a show called “the first Jew in Canada: a trans tale“ written and performed by S. Bear Bergman. The show will be performed on November 2, 2025 at 40 Berkeley St. in Boston at 5 PM. There’s a QR code for more information and notes that it will be interpreted into ASL.

Boston! Come see the show @broadwayworld.com called “skillful, deeply affecting, funny and sad and sweet and difficult and true,” and @intermissionmag.bsky.social says is “a solo show with a sense of heart and honesty that'll leave your cheeks wet and your chest warm.”

I am having a hot bath because I’m fighting a cold.

While soaking, I finished the water in my glass, and then had the thought that I wished I could stay in but I really needed a drink of water.

So I would obviously need to get out.

Of the bathtub.

To get water.

(The cold may be winning.)

That tracks. I have a 10yo who is like this (last year he picked up two extra kids at his birthday party) and I once found him running around at the park with a kid, pointing at stuff and saying the English word for it, and then the other kid would say the word for it in his language.

I was going to say, how’s her Farsi coming along?

This silly joke made me laugh a LOT this morning; thank you.

When my children sass me, I just remember that as a child who could not keep my nose out of a book, I got many scoldings about watching what I was doing. Once my mother was particularly aggravated and I said yes, she should go complain to the other mothers about her child that won’t stop READING.

My 80 pound mutt Francis is tan with white feet and a black nose and ears, plus varied dramatic black markings around his eyes. He is seen here stretched out on a gray couch, with his head resting on a stuffed IKEA shark. The entire situation is Extremely adorable.

I have enormous dog; also very good.

Some years ago, a Jamaican friend introduced me to the phrase “no broughtupsy” and while I don’t use it (feels appropriative; I am a middle aged white Jew from New York) I do find that I think it a whole lot these days.

I recommend you share a few potato chips with a dog if you have the opportunity. A big cozy ding-dong is ideal for this, but really any dog.

A very a very dignified looking tan dog with a black muzzle dog is curled into a circle on the couch. His head rests on a mustard coloured yellow cushion, and over his head is a faux fur fuzzy blanket. He looks a bit ridiculous but very cozy - he picked his head up just as I raised my camera, in case it was peanut butter.

Francis, teaching his graduate seminar in coziness. Enrolment opens soon for his summer intensive, rolling on your back in a cool bed of clover.

I’m a transgender Jewish writer and storyteller; imagine how I feel.

How many rides before one (1) free beheading?

Say a prayer? I would not call the cops, because I’d be concerned that they didn’t have a car seat because they couldn’t afford one, and that the gigantic ticket they would get for not having the baby restrained would put them further from safety in any of several ways.
