“Difficult takes a day. Impossible takes a week.”

I remember, before I started writing, reading Goodbye, Vitamin with The Wing book club. So beautiful to have @rrrrrrrachelkhong’s generous words a part of #LastNightinBrooklyn’s journey! ✨🥂🪩💛

Everybody who’s celebrating…the day has finally come…..HAPPY BUNNY BOWL!!!!!🐰🏈🇵🇷 #badbunny #superbowl @badbunnypr

Love him or hate him—and I am CERTAIN you all have opinions!—Andrew Yang came to politics in 2019 with a big problem: AI was coming for jobs. He also proposed a big solution: Universal Basic Income. 7 years later and #AI job loss is more real than ever but nobody is talking about #UBI or any other solution. I asked @andrewyang about why for @theatlantic… 💸🤖🅰️ #andrewyang #theatlantic #class

There is nothing authors dread more than having to solicit blurbs (well, maybe sitting there while their bio is being read at events?) So I’m feeling so grateful to the amazing authors who leant some time and generous words to #LastNightinBrooklyn. Thank you @nathanhillbooks!!! ✨🥂🪩💛

Ok, storytime. And 🍵... But first...Jeffries failed to whip the democrats and now ICE still has BILLIONS in funding from the Big Ugly Bill and little leverage. NY Mag’s headline is “Democrats got Less than Nothing.” 💀 I HATE talking shit about anybody from Brooklyn - let alone somebody who was my representative for YEARS who I’ve supported. But the truth is, I saw Rep. Jeffries’ true colors in an exchange that told me everything two years ago at an event at the White House…

Do not worry, I’m going to vote right at the midterms, BUT I’m just so dejected by the lack of leadership and the BARE MINIMUM we are getting from Democrats right now… And today, it all just felt embodied by Corey Booker’s weird social media? Like drop your representative’s worst take below and let’s expose them 🙄ARGH!!! But believe me… I’m cynical about politicians, but not about US!

A little after I recorded this, that professional liar, Karoline Leavitt was behind her podium saying they don’t want to see Americans being killed in the streets. SOOO, I’m just saying, stay vigilant this week and this year. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Keep calling your reps and talking to your loved ones who are afraid and may want to take a reprieve as “enough.” 🚫🚫🚫

Alex Pretti, I am so sorry this happened while you were being good and brave. My heart is breaking for his family and friends and for America. But I am thinking of how we act. I spent a lot of time this morning on USAspending.gov trying to see who we should be boycotting— bc we need to be boycotting!— and what I discovered is how MANY companies— big corporations but also smaller companies we’ve never heard of— have a very vested financial stake in this moment… and how many of them are tactical and tech and surveillance companies. So first, we need to be organizing locally, in real life, to meet our moment. But also, we need to start looking at who— besides the big names we know— have a vested interest in keeping this administration in office, and what electeds they are supporting. More soon. Stay safe.. Be kind to each other. pray for Minnesota. 💔
