Please stop overestimating what a democratic Congress can do. The oligarchs are spending money to make you think a Dem Congress can arrest people and hold trials and pass laws without a POTUS signature so that you’ll be disappointed when they don’t do stuff they can’t do. Don’t fall for it.

In an Uber. Driver having loud phone conversation with someone in Spanish. A little annoying, but it happens. He hangs up. Says, “Mi hermano. La Migra.” And starts weeping.

One of the sad things about shows running for years and years is that after a few years they can start to feel...tired. The energy just isn't there. Everyone is working hard but there's a sense of fatigue that starts to set in.

While waiting for the upcoming Kiss of the Spider Woman revival at NYCC, I'm dreaming about who I'd like to see play the lead roles. In no particular order... For Molina: Robin de Jesús, Brandon Contreras, Tonatiuh (loved their performance in the film), George Salazar, J. Harrison Ghee

I agree with this, but the problem is that so many people dig their heels in and refuse to listen when told they're wrong. The only way I've been able to change someone's mind is to say something like, "I understand your perspective, but have you considered..." and work from there.

Folks, it case you haven’t been keeping up with the news this year, we have an election on November 3rd. I’m not here to stress you out about it. Quite the opposite. If you don’t yet have plans for that day (besides voting), consider serving as a poll worker at your local election site. (thread)

Lots of other languages have second-person plural pronouns and English should too. "Y'all" is a great word and we should use it regularly for clarity if nothing else.

Dolly Parton used her gift for music to highlight the challenges of poverty, inequality, and struggle in ways that uplifted and inspired working people. “And I told 'em all the story / Momma told me while she sewed / And how my coat of many colors / Was worth more than all their clothes”

Parton's legacy as a songwriter, a performer, a personality, and a beacon of warmth and acceptance all make her one of the greatest to have ever done it. But when you add the truly astounding level of her philanthropy...what is there to say? She inspired decency and shamed the wicked. All hail.

One of the many reasons why she was one of the best. If she had only created great art, it would have been enough. But she kept going and embodied the spirit of tikkun olam. She set so many high bars. May we all strive to reach them.

I met Lindsay Graham once. He sat behind me and a friend at Hamilton in August 2016. At intermission, I asked him if he was enjoying the show. He said that he was, and that he was surprised to learn how much conflict there was among colonial Americans, even among those who wanted independence.

Happy Fourth. On this day, I like to revisit Frederick Douglass’ “What to a Slave is the Fourth of July,” and in particular, this video NPR produced a few years back of portions of the speech being read by Douglass’ descendants. youtu.be/NBe5qbnkqoM?...

There’s a special kind of irony in watching the “shall not be infringed” crowd twist themselves into knots insisting birthright citizenship shouldn’t exist. It’s amazing how flexible “absolute” rights become when they’re someone else’s.

Juneteenth is a day to reflect on the ways power holds on. How it held on through sharecropping, redlining, & Jim Crow laws. How it continues to hold on through the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery except as punishment for a crime, mass incarceration, and the gutting of the Voting Rights Act.
