Just extra props to @thecity.nyc not just for the work but also for not treating this like some special scoop or exclusive They went in and did the work and emphasized that this is to persecute specific women

On Sunday, my friend, Jonathan Joss was murdered and it took me a minute to find the words... Like so many of our lives, Jonathan's existed at the powerful intersections of Indigeneity, queerness, visibility, and vulnerability. He was fierce, funny, flawed, and real in every way that mattered.

I think it's very strange that Democrats including their voters are using "Big, Beautiful Bill" over and over again.

A million years ago, this was a national scandal. Today, it is just an every day occurrence that we all tacitly accept.

Following up: while Jonathan Joss complained about years of homophobic abuse from his neighbors and his husband wrote that the murderer was screaming homophobic epithets, the San Antonio police says there’s “no evidence” of a hate crime. This is why so many queer folks don’t like cops at Pride.

Want to say if any academic identified with the left who was even 1/4th as influential as Yarvin is said something as offensive as “put the church Blacks in charge of the ghetto Blacks,” it would lead the coverage and call for a round of soul-searching for everyone left of center.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Jonathan Joss was so perfect as Chief Ken Hotate on Parks and Rec, a character who loved messing with white people above all else. RIP

Been sobbing on & off since I heard the news about Jonathan Joss. You don't understand. It's so, so rare to have an Elder in Hollywood. We have a literal handful to look to, to learn from. Redcorn is often referenced by Natives as the only authentic (& funny) characters we saw growing up on TV

I feel completely heartbroken over the murder of Jonathan Joss. A gay, Native man murdered in cold blood saving his husband’s life from the hatred of another. The rage is endless. The pain is endless. They keep hurting us. It has to fucking stop.

Jonathan Joss (Comanche, White Mountain Apache) did not simply die from a gunshot. He was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime by his former neighbors. He died saving his partners life. Honor his legacy-- both queerness and Indigeneity are inextricable to why he was targeted.

I was sitting quietly in the forest this morning, watching a Royal Flycatcher nest when this wonderful Keel-billed Motmot perched near me for a few minutes. These are one of the toughest motmots. They're quiet, small, and love the dark forest. At @tapirvalley.bsky.social #costarica #birds #nature

Once you realize that every public good you want has a cop in the way, then you begin to understand our current predicament.

9/11/2001 was one of my most difficult teaching days. In many ways, it also marked the start of my adult political life. After living through decades of 9/11 commemorations, I expected there to be national mourning for Covid so that we could all grieve together. If this happened, I missed it.

Sat on the deck w/ Mom, talked with a mentee, continued planning our container garden and mini greenhouse, watched the bees and birds play around the pond, and beheld another sunset. 🙏🏾

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

What bothers me: only some deaths are seen as extraordinary, deaths worthy of mass mourning. For many of us, our people's deaths are seen as fodder for the daily news. Totally normalized. 💔 Sitting on the deck, listening to birdsong and the hum of traffic and A/C, that is where my thoughts lie.

[Trauma, homophobia, animal cruelty] I've been teary off and on. He just wanted to be a newlywed and they killed his dog and burned his house, and took his life and ruined his husband's life and I can't. The cruelty of this world. I can't.

I wish I agreed with the people who seem to think Yarvin is not a big deal.
