Some personal news: I'll be joining @Catholic4Choice as their Director of Communications and Strategy on February 1st. As a Christian and someone deeply committed to pro-choice policies and reproductive health, it's a dream to join this team of brilliant advocates. (1/2)
Catholics for Choice is a pro-choice, pro-LGBTQ, pro-equality org that centers marginalized voices. Our new president @jamielmanson doesn't shy away from tough fights, and I feel grateful to be working for her. I'd like to ask folks for two favors in this next chapter...
1. I would love if you could all follow @Catholic4Choice to keep up with our work.

2. Please consider making a donation to the org through this announcement link. These next few years will be especially tough for repro rights, and we could use your help: catholicsforchoice.salsalabs.org/comms
Sorry! The donate button on that page is understandably obscure and small. Here's an easier link to make a donation that helps us fight for reproductive rights and health: catholicsforchoice.salsalabs.org/donate4change/…

Seems like Sen. Schumer's getting a rise out of a lot of people with that "erection" gaffe.
These things happen. No biggie. I expect Sen. Schumer will just ride it out.
It's okay to laugh at this. Don't be so stiff.

OMG, I'm watching the group of amazing folks behind @TedLasso in conversation with @YNB, and it's as amazing as you'd expect. I love this group. ❤️
I could definitely listen to @YNB gush over "Ted Lasso" for a few hours. 😂❤️
God, this conversation is so wholesome. I love it.

The National Rifle Association is filing for bankruptcy. I guess that means they're no longer loaded.
I guess the NRA didn't hit their target goals for finances.
I can't wait for all the NRA bankruptcy mentions in news clips and magazines.

I wrote a lot of pieces in 2020! As we close out the year, I want to share a short list of my favorites. (thread)
In March, while we all watched in horror as the Trump administration botched the initial response to the pandemic, I wrote for @Independent about the bizarre and unjust access many healthy celebrities gained to COVID tests, which were quite scarce. independent.co.uk/voices/coronav…
In April, when it was apparent Joe Biden was on his way to winning the nomination, I wrote for @washingtonpost on why progressives should have optimism about a Biden White House. washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/0…

Well, folks, I'm officially the latest online personality to start a Substack, and the question that might be on your mind is: “Does the universe really need this?”

I seriously doubt it, but let me explain why I’m doing it. (thread)
I’ve always wanted to write for a living. Like actual personal writing and commentary, basically what I do on Twitter every day for free. Up until now, I’ve been paid to do communications work—of which I’m proud—but that’s not even close to being the same thing.
In the past, despite a number of offers, I’ve always declined to monetize my Twitter account because there’s a chance of risking a loss of trust with folks who follow your work. I really admire the people who have made that work, but I didn’t wanna risk it.

I watched an advance screener of "Promising Young Woman" today, starring Carey Mulligan as Cassie Thomas, a med school dropout who exacts revenge against rapists and sexual assailants, and it's one hell of a film. Here are many thoughts on it. (thread)
Right off the bat, I should say that the film graphically references, describes, and depicts rapes and sexual assaults and also suicide. In case the trailer hadn't been direct enough about that, consider this a trigger warning. It is DEEPLY uncomfortable to watch in some parts.
The film opens up with three younger guys at a happy hour engaged in, uh, "locker room talk". Well, two of the three. The third is the apparent moral center of the scene, played perfectly by Adam Brody. He's the Nice Guy. He chides the other two.
