The criminal @POTUS wrecks every day with assaults on democracy and decency, but this weekend, that fat, tangerine bitch has insinuated himself into two of my favorite events: the @FIFAWorldCup and the @kencen honors. The day we are rid of this mediocre fuck cannot come too soon.

When it’s cold in December, frigid for the first time in the season and as the solstice approaches you decide to clear out the fridge/pantry, what better bowl to conjure than Pete’s Berbere Curried Bean Porridge..? #DoIt #Hearty #PlantBased #Stew #Slowcook #Spicy #Vegan #Winter #Hashtag #Again

The Spanish & Portuguese Synagogue on CPW is the current home of the oldest Jewish congregation in the US, established in 1654 by a group of Sephardic Jews, emigrants from then Dutch Brazil. My city, my nation, hotbed of diasporic fecundity. #Diversity #Thanksgiving #AutumnInNewYork #LoveThyNeighbor

On Bowery, just below Grand, the Southeast Asian grocery I frequent for sauces/condiments (Chinkiang vinegar, Thai chili basil, Sriracha, Tom Yum paste). Priced well, and I always discover a novelty (to me!) to throw into rotation. If you cook, take a look. #NYC #Chinatown #BonAppétit #Xinmòi

Yes, the guy who said he could grab women by the pussy, who bragged about ogling naked teenaged girls in a beauty pageant, and who wanted to date his own daughter, that psychopath fucked little girls with Jeffrey #Epstein. #GetREAL #CauterizeTheROT #ItsACoverUP #ComplicitREPUBS

One season, one holiday at a time, please. Don’t rush me past the russet and gold, the amber and tawn. There will be plenty of time for tinsel and flake. Relax. Wait a while. This moment is precious. The world is in molt. We are divine. Why hurry? #NYC #AutumnInNewYork #LesFeuillesMortes

I first took notice of Zohran #Mamdani early in the year, when his campaign was just gathering speed. In the spring, I took this photo in #Chinatown, struck by the many communities energized by this guy, and wondered how far he’d go. Today, we find out. #NYC #MrMayor #VOTE

The psychological infirmities of the president and his adolescent administration on pathetic display.
The White House website has updated it's Major Events Timeline to include some extremely political content attacking Democrats. Every structure, symbol, and system has to be debased to serve the MAGA-agenda.

Man, remember when this was the ethos of a nation and not just a recreational equipment cooperative? Those were the days…and, we can get ‘em back. It starts with you, your neighbor, the truth, kindness, respect. You know, the shit all the great oracles and messiahs preach. #GetREAL #theAntidote

Should you run to the new Ruth Asawa exhibit @momanyc.bsky.social? You might do better to stride with purpose…but get there. It’s an extraordinary testament to ingenuity, rigor, form, practice. Astonishing productivity. She was a freaking badass. #Art #theAntidote #MOMA #DoIt #EveryDay #RuthAsawa

This president disregards the Constitution at nearly every turn, and any true patriot recognizes it. We can't have the entire military resign...but, every act of resistance is justified at this moment. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Hamas released 140 living hostages by January 2025. They’ve been ready to end this. Netanyahu held out to get 47 elected, then hit the scorched earth/genocide threshold to ‘re-develop’ #Gaza w/Kushner. This is no grand peace. It’s a grotesque colonialist transaction. #WarCrimes
