This has been said a million different times and ways and it never seems to penetrate but I’ll try again: Using AI to “do” art isn’t possible. Art is not the process of coming up with a good idea to get started and then executing it flawlessly in the style of someone you admire.

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

Woke up to news that I won tickets to see one of my favorite bands (fronted by one of my top celebrity crushes) at the best venue ever.

If I disappear after the 22nd, it’s because I died of joy.

If you say “but” after the sentence “I’m for free speech” then you are in fact not for free speech and are in fact a butt.

i’m trying so hard not to devalue other people’s organizing, or fall into the “bad protester” trap, but i do think asking people to put themselves on a registry is indicative of such a massive misunderstanding of our current political climate, it makes me doubt their potential for driving change.

I’ve written almost 30,000 words in the last five and a half days.

Is it 2011 again?

Kurt just half teased me that I should go to New York and see a musical on Broadway.

The speed with which I pulled up videos from the Kennedy production of Chess likely broke multiple records.

Two things can be true.
1)You did your best.
2)Your best caused harm.
It’s a hard truth.
"I was doing the best i could." Ok. It wasn't good enough. 🤷🏾‍♂️

If someone tells you "Hey, this person is dangerous and here's the proof backing up my claims" and your response is "That sucks for you but they've always been nice to me!"

I hope you know this means that you are unsafe, untrustworthy, and unworthy of being a part of any community.
