A great thread of options for newsletters:
This is a nice example of what I do: buttondown.com/milner/archi...
My nerdy little podcast company moved our newsletter from substack to beehiiv and are super happy with it! nydproductions.beehiiv.com
buttondown.com/charliejane/... I abandoned Substack a few years ago. Alas, images have disappeared from all my old newsletters, but this was the top image on my "I'm leaving Substack" post (The subhed was "He went to Chicken Cacciatore's down on Sesame Street, La la la la")
I wil start bc I did do this Preeti.beehiiv.com

since Bluesky is chock full of Newsom-stan-bots insisting that "Dems should compromise on trans issues", I will re-up my November essay about why this is not only immoral & unempirical, but BAD POLITICS. Dems WILL LOSE if they do this, here's why (no paywall): juliaserano.medium.com/should-democ...

I will miss him. I’m grateful for the ways he helped define my upbringing with the characters he brought to life on screen and the way he changed how all of us are allowed to be on screen.
But he won't just be remembered for the roles he played on screen but for the work he did in our communities, for the kinship that he had with folks. He was a good man. He will be missed.
In every role, but especially in the role of Mogie, Greene made sure to portray the truth about humanity that we are never just one thing, there is never just one thing that defines us. We are not just bad or just good as human beings because we have the capacity for both.
This one hurts. I've always admired his work and the depth that he brought to every role. One of the roles that has stuck with me for years is Mogie in SKINS. Graham Greene was so gifted in the way he way he could bring so much nuance to the characters he played. youtu.be/uaW2sd_cswg?...
On September 1, 2025, we lost a true legend. Graham Greene, Oneida from Six Nations Reserve, walked on at the age of 73. Over the span of more than 175 acting credits, he gave us characters that were unforgettable, complex, and real. redpopnews.com/remembering-... #redpopnews
I quote “Stand” in #EdgeOfSpaceTime, which people can preorder here: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/746817...
I feel this loss
Rest in power, Graham Greene ✊🏽
this isn't an exaggeration either, gavin newsom said "my son is a huge fan" to charlie kirk, who is an actual fascist, a real white nationalist
Oh yeah, any of these dipshits accusing us of purity testing when we demand opposition to genocide are always, invariably doing partisan purity testing themselves "Vote blue no matter who" is on its face a purity thing
Friends, comrades: if you’ve seen or written a good explanation of how the NYT has failed/done harm on — Palestine — trans issues Do me a favor and link to it here? Note: not an invitation to defend the NYT, the request is clear!
✊🏽
same. in dec. 2023 i asked the rabbi who told me “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere” how THIS was anything other than a threat to justice everywhere and he talked about complicated questions with no satisfying answers and i felt the blood drain out of my face
It's genocide.
For NYT on trans issues, I think this piece of mine from January is both a good overview and a good source of links to other writers who have tackled the topic. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...
I was definitely planning to go through AM, so thank you for making that easier :-)
I will not be! It’s too early to get a narrator but I have one I’m hoping for!
It does not escape me that those of us who have been saying it was a genocide, since early days, are also the ones who correctly called what is happening here fascism, since early days. Things are pretty obvious if you are willing to look.
Friends, comrades: if you’ve seen or written a good explanation of how the NYT has failed/done harm on — Palestine — trans issues Do me a favor and link to it here? Note: not an invitation to defend the NYT, the request is clear!
Glad it's been declared officially. Journalists, take note that you can now refer to what's happening in Gaza as genocide. There is no higher authority on the subject than the Intl Assoc. of Genocide Scholars.
Sent with a note saying that genocide denial is a shande
😹😭
Send this to all the genocide deniers in your life I’m sending it to my rabbi
Buy all of the doctors books. She’s wicked smaht. Go wildcats
Call your members of Congress. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social return all AIPAC funding you've gotten. The blood is on your hands
This has been clear for a long time now. And it's appalling that western governments are, at best, doing absolutely nothing. And at worst, are actively helping them commit this genocide.
💩 www.gawkerarchives.com/politics/rem...
Those of us paying attention are in the real bubble
Elon Musk is a radicalised extremist openly championing the most racist faction who would deport the Foreign Secretary, the Leader of the Opposition, the Justice Secretary and the last Prime Minister The govt silence about such a level of extremism is craven: infinite tolerance of racial hatred
I’m horrified that there’s even still an argument over whether it’s genocide, when Israelis will boast about how it’s genocide.
Woke up this morning to someone saying I’m critiquing Newsom because I have a book coming. Checking my notes and it seems like my book is still about physics and not about electoral politics but I digress …
I wrote a late night post once about how LED headlights were too hard on the eyes — while my spouse was driving us home — and woke up the next morning to see it had gone viral and people were accusing me of being dramatic to sell books lol Magical times on Twitter
imagine years of this, every day
The body of a child was pulled from the rubble as families searched for loved ones trapped under the remains of their homes, following overnight Israeli air attacks on multiple buildings across Gaza City.
Jewish Artists for Palestine protesters interrupted a performance by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra at the BBC Proms in London, accusing the organisation of silencing artists who have criticised Israel’s war on Gaza.
Agitators target a mosque and assault Muslims as the St George flag is flown widely following anti-immigration protests.
Israel murders journalists. Keep their voices alive. #JournalismIsNotACrime
I'm saying this as someone who was attacked by a Zionist lynch mob at the UCLA Encampment. newpol.org/issue_post/o...
It's genocide. We know it's genocide. It's defined as genocide. It is being live-streamed to the world. Never again has to mean something, because it clearly didn't mean anything before, to some people. It. Is. A. Genocide. Intervention is required. #FreePalestine #Genocide
THE HAGUE, Sept 1 (Reuters) - The world's leading genocide scholars' association has passed a resolution saying that the legal criteria have been met to establish Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Forced famine/genocide. Will the rest of the world finally agree and act to stop this madness?
Yes, they do
Looking forward to someone saying that I’ve been consistently talking about the genocide the entire time because I’m trying to sell books Cake taken only by the time someone accused me of posting about headlights to sell books
this is a major news story bsky.app/profile/chan...
The way my mentions light up when I criticize Newsom but don’t when I post news about a whole fucking genocide But I’m supposed to take the Vote Blue folks opinions about me seriously?
"we can't pass your purity test of finding a non transphobe so you must pass our purity test of voting for someone who actively hates you" Find another canidate or you won't find our votes
Glad to see this is being recognized by even more institutions. Every scholar and professor who protected Israel, who tried to criminalize and harass the encampments, is criminally complicit in this.
The numbers are not amazing if you look past that headline. Also: elections2024.thehill.com/national/new...
I have been told reliably that purity politics is when you have a dozen possible candidates and you think eleven of them would make passable presidents
Let me know when the articles publish!!!! I’m hoping for front page of every newspaper.
That’s also a complete misuse of “white passing” which has a very specific meaning in the American context: passing for white is a series of actions that involves obscuring one’s non-European heritage and historically was quite dangerous.
"Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948)". Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, genocide scholars' association says - www.reuters.com/world/middle...
Today, hundreds of media outlets in over 50 countries are mobilising in solidarity with Palestinian journalists in the Gaza Strip, alongside RSF and Avaaz. Find out more: bit.ly/3UXUSOS #ProtectJournalistsInGaza #LetReportersIntoGaza

Pritzker is a white Jew. don’t do this in the mentions of Jews of color, seriously.
By the time DOJ files this status report, Judge Sooknanan will have been awake for nearly 20 hours.
So tired of reminding people that this isn’t theory, this is our lives, and we are people who bleed
There are people who are MEDICALLY affected by these actions and your words
When there are public attacks on Black women that are based on their identities as Black women — misogynoir — every Black woman witnessing it is a victim That includes the Black woman you’re discussing it with and/or in front of And this has health implications for every single one ICY forgot
I don’t see a solid basis for this claim at all, especially as he goes around preaching trans acceptance
Rolando and I are cool, I think he just didn’t read through
Same lol
For you coming into a conversation you’re not a part of and adding only misreading? Absolutely
Tangential but it’s notable that when California does things it gets reported as “Newsom” and when Illinois does things it gets reported as “Illinois”

Illinois is currently exploring the possibility of purchasing Covid-19 vaccines in bulk straight from manufacturers to make sure everyone will still have access.
Let us pray ✊🏽
And that’s assuming that they are both Deltas!!!
The county where the University of New Hampshire flagship campus sits has a population of 130,000 I guess we are all in a conflict of interest now and no one can sit on a jury, administer an election, or do anything else now That’s the standard being applied here
More directly, the S&B parallel is a Final Club.
Hasty Pudding is the least of my concern when it comes to groups at Harvard. The Final Clubs are the more powerful networks.
No, read the thread I’m quoting
I say this as someone who generally admires your commentary: I get sometimes folks miss the very obvious racism in his posts but the moment you realize that this has happened to you, it’s probably a good idea to slow down and say less until you are ready to speak with the needed care.
That’s fine but I’m pointing to the second half of the sentence
“I have no idea if that’s true or whether that would require recusal.” The second half of this sentence is very “I don’t know if he can require voter ID” You see the work that does?
It’s a sorority with over 300,000 members
Like let’s be clear bsky.app/profile/chan...
The Deltas have over 300,000 members. There is no reason to assume any two know each other, unless the position is “all the Blacks know each other” and “no one in a NH county can sit on a jury for anyone else” because that’s just over a fifth of the NH population.
And there’s no evidence they are at all acquainted
Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Robert Reich and Clarence Thomas were all in the same COURSE at Yale Law. The incestuousness of the U.S. government is through the roof but the minute two Black women demonstrate a passing acquaintance it becomes a conspiracy.
It’s not “maybe Trump has a point about conflicts of interest” How many of these white dude lawyers and judges went to Harvard together, ok?
The judge makes her own choices, the national leadership of her sorority does not make choices for her, and this is an attack on the judge and the judiciary as well as Black women and Black women’s organizations Please do not post irresponsibly about it
Let’s not to the “maybe Trump is saying things that are true” bit 😬
Absolutely no basis for recusal unless they have had meaningful contact with each other. It’s a national sorority.
