Incredible opening night at @metopera.bsky.social with Michael Chabon’s #AmazingAdventuresofKavalierandClay directed by Bartlett Sher. Love the production. Orchestral score (conducted by the indomitable Yannick Nezet-Seguin) was moving and the story was beautifully told.

Every American should be fed up with this regime’s actions to Make America Poor/Sick/Dumb Again. We needed help to elevate everyone out of poverty and illness, but lowering standards isn’t the correct solution. Definitely not the ethical or moral one.
🔴 THREAD: RFK Jr. just canceled 22 mRNA vaccine projects.
