I was so excited when I thought this was an app to protect libraries and books from censorship and burning 😭
Over the last few months, I’ve been advising @bookprotectors: a new app for ordering an on-demand security detail. Or more simply: Uber with guns. Today, they’re debuting in Los Angeles and NYC at No. 3 on the App Store. If you have a hot date this weekend, pick her up in a Protector.

I can’t tell if Elon naming his government agency DOGE is a clever wink to medieval Venice’s doges and his deranged oligarchical ambitions, or if it’s just a coincidence palazzoducale.visitmuve.it/e…

I wish a “jury of one’s peers” meant a jury entirely comprised of people with disabilities and bad spinal surgeries

What will Elon tweet if one of his many kids gets cancer that there’s no cure for no matter how rich you are all because he killed the bill that would have funded pediatric cancer research

So many people I was homeless with as a teenager are now famous musicians and performers. It’s like the movie FAME except under a bridge with a chorus of rats

Laugh-crying with a friend about how being a journalist diagnosed with agoraphobia is hilarious because 85% of my job as a journalist requires meeting new people and going new places. I’m literally the Mr. Bean of journalism and relentlessly subject myself to exposure therapy

are you neurotypical or did you study Emily Post’s book and other 19th century etiquette guides to help you fit in at middle school

You know we’re in an age of oligarchy in the US because people say things like “We got married after Trump” or “I had surgery before Trump” or “We met during the Trump election”—We mark time now like we’re fully embracing America’s feudal age year Tickety-Two of the Trump Dynasty

When Mary on #RHOSLC ordered Pastrami Soup I was thrown into memories of my mom’s horrendous cooking because she used to make pastrami soup with sauerkraut. It was so bad. I became a vegan when I was 8 and taught myself to cook for the family so I didn’t have to eat my mom’s food

I used to be a kidney transplant + cadaver coordinator. When politicians ask me about organ trafficking my answer is 100x longer than expected and begins with the origins of oncology in ancient Egypt, plasma donor coercion, research ethics, politics of prison, eGFR medical racism
