Also, hi. Took a break here because everything is too much. But we get another fresh start with Lunar New Year. I hope the arrest of Andrew, the former Prince is the first domino to fall.

"there’s a crack forming in the system of patriarchal abuse, that what you are starting to witness is a fraying of our social order. That what was once quietly circulating in elite circles under layers of secrecy is now a giant house of cards ready to collapse." My god, I hope this is coming true.

Complicity as infrastructure. Every woman has a story.

He likes to be charmed and he likes winners. Mamdani is very charming—he totally charmed him today. Still, it was bizarre. Can't wait to see this cold open on SNL this weekend.

Thinking of Virginia Giuffre today. We all should be. It's heartbreaking that she's not here.

An American Muslim immigrant is now the mayor of NYC. A huge win for the people and a big fuck you to all the billionaires who tried to stop him. I love my city! 🎉💙🎉

This is sad and all too suspicious. Teen Vogue had some of the best political journalism in a sea of journalism lacking moral clarity.

One of my favorite things about Halloween in NYC. Diane Keaton, I see you doing the Thriller dance back there. Halloween this year felt special. One night to get our minds off *waves arms around* all this. Pure fun and joy.

This will date me, but I just remembered the Columbia House music clubs—12 hits for a penny!

We used to own things, but subscribe to them instead. This model of convenience over ownership benefits corporations who own our data. What’s insidious about a subscription society is the marketing of an illusion of infinite choice, but how much convenience are you willing to trade for dependence?

Please donate to your local food bank. It's really unfathomable that in a few days time, SNAP benefits will run out and millions to go hungry. This government doesn't take care of its own, so what is left to do but for communities to look out for each other?

The fact that an influencer gets the American flag flown at half-staff while an elected government official does not is a pretty accurate snapshot of America right now.

I'm not shedding any tears for this guy but we don't need an American martyr for the conservative right. Also, feel for the students who witnessed this.

This is an absolute shit show of a day in America. I don't wish gun violence on anyone, not even that guy. Who do we want to be as a country? Not this.

My cousin was recruited to work for one of the shipbuilding companies. Moved to Seoul for the year with the idea that he would lead the US buildout. Yeah...I don't know, we'll see.

Right, and MAGA is celebrating because they think Hyundai "stole"475 jobs that should have gone to Americans. More like, they lost 8000 jobs if Hyundai pulls out.

This is just going to stoke more anti-American sentiment in S.Korea, who is supposed to be our ally.

This is so incredibly moronic. Now 8000 American jobs are likely lost, just to what...fill an ICE quota?

Companies should really go to Canada. We don't deserve it here.

This is just going to erode trust from the S. Korean govt after pledging $150B investments in the US. Why would any company want to build here. He wants to bring manufacturing to the US but then pulls this shit where workers are chained & shackled? They should pull out—foreign employees are at risk.

I did not know that survivors of Epstein and Maxwell's abuse are speaking out today until I read Jenna's piece here. Spotlight needs to be solely on them until the Trump administration quits being cowardly and releases everything relevant to the investigation. jennapark.substack.com/p/we-need-to...

We need to believe them
The symphony of cicadas, the silencing of women, and the muse of Manhattan.

It's disappointing that this is not more widespread. Didn't see a mention of it in WaPo or the Times emails this morning either.

Jenna Park @jennapark.bsky.social · 03/09/2025
Today, I stand with the Epstein survivors. We need to listen to these women. We need to believe them. Not Ghislaine Maxwell, not Speaker Johnson or Nancy Mace, and not the president. They've been silenced for decades and need our support as they stand at the Capital steps and tell their stories.

Every once in a while I miss being an active designer in a community where we critique the shit out of a rebrand. Holy hell this is bad. Kerning that makes it look like a feminist mag, the flag shape, lines in the tagline that read like navigation. This is supposed to look like a source we trust?
