In college my male friends were all doing online IQ tests and got me to do one. I scored the same/higher than each of them and they suddenly changed their tune about all their score boasting and insisted I must have done it wrong. Learned then that IQ tests are bunk AND that dudes' opinions suck. 🙃

Opinion | Trump Has Finally Lost the Plot (Gift Article)
It is now apparent that many Americans — probably enough Americans — are determined to live within the truth rather than the lie.

Watching my twenty-something kids fall in love with CDs and vinyl is something else. "I can listen without paying every month?" "Nobody knows what I put on or when?" They're not being nostalgic. They're discovering, for the first time, that a song can belong to you and only you.

Re reporters saying Karoline is super normal off camera: I'll never forget the time I was on television with an anti-immigration think tank person. She lied like she breathed on air. Afterward, I said, you know none of that is true, right? She smiled and said something like, that's not the point.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

On this date in 1936, the Summer Olympics opened in Berlin, and the efforts by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party to demonstrate the superiority of the “Aryan race” were undermined by the success of African American athletes, notably Jesse Owens.

It's funny how some cis people are saying you have to support Amy Acton in Ohio because she's better than the alternative. Better for who? Ohio already passed a ton of anti-trans legislation, a lot of which was vetoed by a Rep. Governor. It still went into effect. It can't get much worse.

For years the right criticized “activist” justices for “legislating from the bench.” Is this not what they are doing? It’s odd that “unitary executive” theory only gets trotted out when there’s a Republican president.

The Supreme Court just launched one of the largest attacks on immigrants in modern American history. Thousands of Haitians and Syrians now risk losing the right to live and work in the country they call home.

This decision will cause enormous pain across the five boroughs. Here in New York, it falls hardest on our Haitian community, one of the largest in the country, alongside Syrian families.

I joined labor leaders with 1199SEIU, elected officials, and advocates to send a clear message to immigrant New Yorkers: You belong here. We will not turn our backs on you.

The Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs will share additional information and resources soon. If you have questions about your status or need legal assistance, call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 800-354-0365.

The Kennedy Center has been hidden behind tarps since the de-defilement. I am expecting that tarps will soon surround the reflecting pool. Then, if there is a god of broken egos, the site of the former East Wing, the White House lawn.. It’s as if Christo and Jean-Claude have returned.
