For Esquire, I'm looking to chat with people in and out of book publishing about the recent high-profile book announcements from politicians like Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, John Fetterman, Gavin Newsom, etc. Have thoughts? DM me or email: vershbowiswriting@gmail.com

Of course! He backs Brad and Zohran and encourages everyone not to vote for Cuomo.

I feel like the people who think Zohran is antisemitic also think the subway is unsafe.

I had to block soooo many people because of that Zohran post, like OK bye!!!!!!! If you call me a "self-hating jew" you actually don't get to look at cute videos of my dog on the internet.

Delighted to share my first article for Dwell magazine on Sniffspot, otherwise known as "the Airbnb for dog parks." www.dwell.com/article/snif...

The Sharing Economy Has Moved to Backyard Rentals—for Your Dog
While pet ownership and housing costs rise, Sniffspot helps you use someone else’s outdoor space as your private dog run.

Sorry I can't come to work today, I'm busy liking pro-Zohran social media content.

This Instagram video from NYC votes is the best explanation I've seen of ranked choice voting. If you believe in using your voting power strategically even when your top choice is out of reach, I encourage you to use your whole ballot to keep Cuomo out of office. www.instagram.com/reel/DJXbdrd...

A friend who wants Brad Lander to win told me she isn't ranking Zohran even though she prefers him to Cuomo. I wrote back explaining why it still makes sense for her to rank Zohran, and I wanted to share it here for any other anti-Cuomo folks who aren't otherwise inclined to rank Mamdani.

My NYC mayoral election ranking: 1. Zohran Mamdani 2. Brad Lander 3. Adrienne Adams 4. Zellnor Myrie 5. Michael Blake I encourage everyone to put Zohran/Brad or Brad/Zohran up top for the best (and only) chance of defeating Cuomo.

I was lucky enough to attend an event with @bradlander.bsky.social tonight and became an even bigger fan than I already was. He's a compassionate man with a plan who brings so much experience to the job. I implore you to rank him and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social in your top two slots.

The "he's only good at making videos" comments about Zohran's campaign ring of, "the intern made that viral post" discourse and proves a fundamental misunderstanding of how valuable effective digital communication is in 2025, assuming anyone good at it is otherwise inexperienced.

My main comment on tonight's mayoral debate is that the moderators did a phenomenal job.

Simon and I are proud to endorse @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as our no. 1 choice to be the next (actual) mayor of NYC! Don’t forget to fill out all 5 slots on your ballot and, whatever you do, DON'T rank Cuomo at all. A better NYC is possible, but we have to believe in it. www.nycvotes.org
