some disappointing news: ESPN has decided to pull our documentary AMERICAN SON about Michael Chang, the 1989 French Open and Tiananmen Square from the Tribeca Film Festival. The film is now slated to run next summer. Tickets should be being refunded over the next few days.

“A billionaire named Harlan Crown is flying Clarence Thomas all over the world in unreported trips [and] paid for his mama’s house… We can all see Clarence Thomas, but he belongs to billionaire Harlan Crow. And that’s what an NFT is.” @RoyWoodJr #WHCD23

“If you’re going to buy a Supreme Court Justice, why would you spend all that money on luxury yachts and planes for Clarence Thomas?? You could have bought Brett Kavanaugh for a bottle of Jager…” @RoyWoodJr @TheDailyShow #ClarenceThomasIsCorrupt #SCOTUS

“It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.” Amanda Gorman How can Republican Senators listen to the words of Amerie Jo Garza’s father Angel and do nothing?
We never took away your guns. But your guns took away our children.

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.) It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public. 🧵

I’ve always been proud to be an Iranian American immigrant. But to follow Stanford’s new language standards, I would need to call myself an “Iranian US-citizen person-who-immigrated.”  This seems awfully wrong. (Thread)

Hey @elonmusk tell me why this isn’t real-time doxxing? Fox News has a drone flying over people and reporting their exact location “right now.” Is that why you’re saying wow? Because you’re stunned at the violation of your policy?
