Latina NYC-area biz/corp-lawyer, but not yours. Opinions my own. Dilettante dabbler. Profile pic is me dressed to lead an outdoor mobile silent disco, because joy makes people underestimate me. Banner is a Tiffany stained glass window at NYC’s Met Museum.

Tragedy of the commons? No, tragedy of the wannabe-aristocracy

It’s not that Libertarians are hard working but rather too lazy and miserly to invest in their communities. It’s a moral rot that is killing America.

It would be really funny if RFKjr used this as an excuse to finally invoke the 25th Amendment. “He got vaccinated so clearly he’s not in his right mind!” Funny and stupid.

The Trump administration has been spreading anti-vaccine propaganda for months. Tonight, Trump's physician announced he just received a flu shot and a COVID booster.

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Kristi Noem should never have been confirmed after this. It ended up being a perfect representation of what she would do.

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

This. It’s a big fat lie.

Stop listening to GOP LIES

No undocumented immigrants are getting Obamacare, Medicare or Medicaid. Only a sliver of the spending on their healthcare comes through ERs, which are required by law to give emergency care to everyone.

Yes I know I’ve heard about it repeatedly. We all make dating mistakes sometime (Kate; Bari was obviously very lucky in love at the time)

Not to be a pedant but Bari Weiss was a junior editor who occasionally wrote opinion pieces in the opinion section, not a columnist.

Yep. Her wife is also from a super rich family so it makes sense

100% this. Also, we’re becoming less creative (and probably less innovative) because we’re all exhausted and don’t have time to let ideas marinate.

Ada Palmer @adapalmer.bsky.social · 5d

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

It’s obnoxious that my work’s open enrollment and my husband’s don’t overlap at all.
