Steve Martin says Maya & Martin Short now have Covid. Without masks and PCR tests, I feared #SNL50 (concert/show/parties) could be an inevitable supers preader. Loved Mulaney's musical & Eddie/Black Jeopardy, but was furious that they thought willfully endangering everyone's health was hilarious.

His emphasis on the freedom to "joke" is telling. Because hearing sexism couched in humor leads boys men to adopt more sexist views and makes both men and women less likely to speak up and challenge others' sexist acts.

I want every Democrat to sound like this. Meanwhile I'm listening to the sounds of (congressional) silence.

Big Tech is a huge problem. But gutting Section 230 will make Big Tech bigger and kill off alternatives like Bluesky and Mastodon. We're in the middle of a fascist coup but Senate Democrats are stuck on stupid on this issue. Call your Senators again and again until they get it BadInternetbills.com

Years ago I was harassed+stalked by a scary stranger (began online, escalated to phone, snail mail) and law enforcement I couldn't get a restraining order bec. he "hadn't done anything physical." The "yet" was implied. Trump has long behaved as a violent spouse abusing the nation; Musk, now, too.

There’s an intense battle in NY over Proposal 1, which would enshrine abortion rights in our state constitution. And now a bunch of Trump donors have poured $8M last minute into the NO campaign. It’s critical that you and everyone you know in NY turn over your ballot and vote YES on Prop 1.

In honor of #SNL50, first time I'm sharing this video of me (and my friend Desi) kicking, stretching, and kicking at my own Sally O'Malley birthday this Aug. Gave her outfit a glow-up. Vintage Betsey Johnson red velvet jumpsuit (with sensible arch support sandals... because I'm 50. 50 years old).

Resharing last night's #SNL50 🧵. Did you watch? What are your takeaways? Mine: special mirrored SNL itself: a few hilarious bits (Black Jeopardy, Mulaney musical, Kate&Meryl), some explicit bigotry+sexism, boring filler, snubs (Jane Curtain, Billy Crystal). 33 posts in🧵, not inc comments/replies.
