Escape Room Idea #8: You're a parent and you need to take your kid to school within the hour. But your glasses are missing. Plus make breakfast. Go.
Something is deeply wrong if we, as a society, cannot agree that an administration that snatches up children, uses them as bait to hunt down others, is morally repulsive.
this is a phenomenal book. i had the honor of presenting freedman with a hillman award for it a while back
I’m just going to tell the story. Back in 2000 I was volunteering for the Gore campaign when he came along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Alfre Woodard and Dule Hill to a GOTV event here in MN. He ended up sitting down across from me stuffing his envelopes.
Mayor Mamdani!
Advocating for affordable health care Broward Health chooses to go out-of-network as of July 1, 2025 — Florida Blue will continue negotiating for you
Advocating for you Memorial Healthcare System chooses to go out-of-network as of September 1, 2025 — Florida Blue will continue negotiating for you.
We want to share an important update with you, as our records show that you or someone in your household may have a Florida Blue plan. We are discussing a new contract with Florida Blue. If we are able to reach an agreement, Cleveland Clinic may no longer be in-network for Florida Blue members as early as March 1, 2026.
First it was Broward Health. Then it was Memorial Healthcare. And now Cleveland Clinic is advising Florida Blue members that they may go out-of-network next March if they fail to negotiate a contract with the insurance company.
Broward County Florida Blue members are running out of options.
RIP Jill Godmilow
Oh shit! How did I miss this? Rest in power, Jill Godmilow. What Farocki Taught is an all-time great work. I got to spend an afternoon with her, and she was such a unique and exciting person to be around.
Be prepared.
Poster for the film With Hasan in Gaza by Kamal Aljafari. Images shows the close up of a young man seen from behind walking through rubble in Gaza with a young child in the background.
With Hasan in Gaza. Second screening tonight at TIFF and one not to sleep on. Really extraordinary feat of filmmaking as an act of recovery, investigation, and testimony. Don’t think I ever seen a more powerful film at the fest.

This is just straight up totalitarian. This demand that nobody ever say anything potentially alienating to Midwestern apes lest the fascist right might turn it into a political issue, is without realizing, the same thing the fascists are. A complete submission of civil society to the partisan agenda
Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.
When I say don’t mess with Texas women, I’m talking about State Rep. Jolanda Jones.
I don't enjoy facing the truth about the Supreme Court, either, but if I believe anybody, I believe Sherrilyn Ifill. Read this, and sign up for the webinars.
this world punishes clarity.
So grateful for the clear, unequivocal witness and voice of Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social who visited the horrifying detention camp in Florida. As he said, “I didn’t see any Russians who’ve overstayed their visas. Only Black & Latino men who look like me.” @maddow.msnbc.com
A helpful PSA:

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal."
That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.
