It was a pleasure meeting with Dayton, Ohio, Mayor Shenise Turner-Sloss this week. We had a productive conversation about strengthening communities, neighborhood safety, and which issues matter most to the people of our cities.

Throughout transition my brain almost daily told me the person staring back at me in the mirror was hideous. Honestly you gotta tell that bitch to shut up. I look back at early photos I'm just like... my brain was so mean to me. The voice never went away I just stopped listening to that liar.

This is not a trick: spooky season is taking over parks and rec centers across our city this month, from free haunted houses and pumpkin patches to Mad Science demonstrations and arts and crafts. We're building a city where every New Yorker can access joy and play.

I think the realization I had that made me move forward with transition was that I was already dead if I didn't, and it was simply a choice between living or just watching a first person movie of some dude I couldn't care less about.

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.

Star Trek: DS9's celebrated episode "The Visitor," in which frequent Trek guest star Tony Todd appeared as a grown-up Jake Sisko, was inspired by the real-life story of a high school student who showed up on writer & recluse J.D. Salinger's doorstep in 1980 and interviewed him.

The subject of the self can be a complex one. If it is, the subject of compassion follows a similar complex path. I began dismantling my self years ago. It was complex, but age and responsibilities demanded that it be so. buff.ly/ZFXQmiJ #LGBTQ #Transgender #Self #Identity
