It’s almost like if people tell you that to win you have to turn your back on poor people, or Muslims, or trans people, or immigrants, you can just say, “no, that’s immoral, we’re not doing that,” and keep doing good old fashioned organizing and campaigning and things will be ok

I still have no intention of watching White Lotus because I live on the upper east side and deal with enough awful rich white people

Teaching a class to SF students. Halfway through a picture frame starts shaking behind one of my students’ walls. ‘Is that an earthquake?’ he shouts out to housemate. It is. We continue. They all agree to grab a burrito after class. Did I just stumble into an SNL sketch on California

Me: should we go and see Santa? My seven year old: you know it’s not real Santa, right? You’re just taking a picture of your child next to a stranger

Also if you’re an American follower whose favourite Thanksgiving dish is turkey, please let me know! Every year I conduct an informal survey amongst students and NO ONE has ever picked turkey

Thank for all your birthday wishes! Age feels better than it looks. Also the children insisted we have birthday cake for breakfast so I’m certainly feeling very awake this Monday morning. And last but not least, my darling husband gave me the most ‘welcome to NYC’ present🗽 🚕 🥨

We move to New York and the west coast gets flooding and the east coast wildfires. Sorry y’all, this one is on us! (And climate change). To quote my husband: ‘It's the flipside of "CA had covid masks because we had prepped for wildfires". Now NY has wildfire masks because of covid.’
