Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 17/05/2025What was Choire’s old line at Gawker? The New York Times is just a fancy blog. 071
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Maybe we can bury that old “Gawker was a good website” chestnut forever and replace it with “Gawker was a Likud website.” 010
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 25/02/2025I am certain Nazism will be the death of so many of us. Anybody’s guess what level of sincerity it will be. 020
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 21/02/2025If your economic boycott doesn’t include a 24/7/365 ban of the NYT and WaPo, and I mean even sharing links to their stories, then I don’t want to dance in a Costco parking lot with you. 010
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 16/02/2025I said it then, I’ll say it again. If you weren’t pro-Occupy Wall Street, you were anti-democracy. 062
Reposted by Andrew KrucoffThis is Now @thisisnow.bsky.social · 15/02/2025America is finally being run like a business: a business acquired by private equity, leveraged to the hilt, its assets gutted, workforce slashed, and pensions raided before it gets offloaded in a fire sale. Hope you like working gig jobs for stock options in a company that won’t exist in five years. 052

Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 13/02/2025I’m sure this is universal but I checked my FB feed for the first time in forever… and wow. It’s beyond anything I’ve seen before. Total war. Thanks for the Heritage Foundation > Libs of TikTok filtered explanation of cultural Marxism, Carla. Get some rest. 030
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Thinking about who I followed on Twitter during Trump’s first term. Just the right mix of (imagine all of these in quotes) media, comedians who only occasionally talked about sports, writers, activists (not in academia), crushes, musicians (no more than 5), and petty nobodies like myself. I miss it. 130
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 06/01/2025When I see some anti-congestion pricing people justify why they’ll still drive into the city instead of using mass transit because of the “math,” it’s like, great, do that! MTA needs the money. That’s the point. 030
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 05/01/2025I miss the me who would’ve gone to this for 10 mins and acted like it was the moon landing. 141

Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 20/11/2024There is no good argument for the preservation of cable news, WaPo, NYT, etc. Your time and money is better spent elsewhere. 250
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Was gonna post something about my cats here but realized that scraping the bottom of the barrel is probably not a great way to set the tone. 030
Andrew Krucoff @krucoff.bsky.social · 16/11/2024OK, I am seeing way too much Thomas Chatterton Williams in my feed. Blocking that idiot is step 1 here. 060

![[Amy] Seimetz told the story of how she placed a bet with an early investor, saying she’d surf a famously dangerous wave in Munich if he gave her $10,000 for her first film. She showed up for that early morning surf. The investor didn’t — but they put up the money anyway. As Seimetz and I left the stage, an audience member came up to say he’d broken a rib surfing that exact wave, suggesting that even in the down and dirty world of indie film, there are probably some limits.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4wfl3nq4hkhgzctsli33qy36/bafkreiaspzfmr7fycmp44llnkpt5jzrggjvzglznccvypbntimbgq45kty)
