It was bracing and intimidating to face her, but in the times I had the chance to do so—while working at Asian CineVision, writing at the Village Voice, and running A. magazine—I learned a helluva lot.
Rest in passion, Chris. You will not be soon forgotten, and your voice will continue to carry.

Every time I saw Christine Choy, she yelled at me—shouting praise, criticism, advice, advocacy; abjuring, exhorting, complaining, exulting. She always lived life with the dial turned to 11.

Oh yeah, Republicans are going to spin up “PROVIDER-OWNED HOSPITALS” in the <checks notes> two weeks before our healthcare system goes into systemic financial crisis and potentially millions of people lose insurance
Insurance subsidies for tens of millions of people expire in a few weeks.
Republicans on the Hill are still at the "concepts of a plan" stage.

If you’re going to look at “P and L” for the government:
The IRS generated over $5.1 trillion in FY 2024 on a tiny budget of around $12.3 billion, yielding an INCREDIBLE return on investment of over 400:1, and yet Trump has laid off 25% of its workforce

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

We are months away from Trump forming a Suicide Squad out of hired assassins, serial killers and child predators, although a case could be made that this is redundant with the Trump cabinet
Giving the president the pardon power was a mistake. The most corrupt president in American history is conducting a jailbreak for his fellow criminals.
