Coincidentally, just last month I finished ‘The Burglar Who Counted the Spoons’ by Lawrence Block, which was a delightful read.

When was the last time you thought about "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button"? Well, now's your chance—the musical version of the "what if a baby was old" story is now playing at the Public Theater through the beginning of December. hellgatenyc.com/benjamin-but...

Attention voters in the NY State Senate District 27. Early voting begins this Saturday. Let’s all write in “YUH-LINE NIOU”. I’m not a fool, I don’t think we can pull a huge upset off, but I *do* think it’s an important message to send to Grace Lee and the rest of Albany. Let’s let em see some votes!

This is obviously our universe’s version of the Terry Sloane Mister Terrific, and y’all are totally blowing his cover. Sheesh.

Saw an old guy with the craziest drip today

Large red onion, carrots, celery, garlic, ginger, thyme, salt, pepper, bay leaf, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar. 1 lb mushrooms, 8 cups broth. Sautée the mirepoix, add mushrooms, spices etc. then add the broth, let it rock out for a minute and then simmer aaaalmost covered for 45-60 min

My Dad and I saw this at a Drive-In! Being in a car while watching added a whole other level!

Trump administration considers building baseball park in Grand Teton National Park
 Major League Baseball contacted the administration about hosting a game in a national park, with an agency official scouting Grand Teton as a possible location.

My unsolicited suggestion? See ‘Resident Evil’, and see it in a theatre. Not just because it’s great on a screen, but because it’s great with an audience.

‘Wanted’ flyer-style wheatpastes now up in midtown Manhattan via the ‘Department of Class Solidarity’. The signage highlights that Benjamin Netanyahu is responsible for the U.S.-funded genocide of Palestinians. Comes ahead of Netanyahu’s speech at the U.N. General Assembly.

Today I have rearranged some newly rebuilt shelving. Yes, that means Iceberg Slim is no longer next to E. Howard Hunt, but next to Chester Himes. As such, it’s now Donald Hamilton next to E. Howard Hunt, and I think we’ll all be the better for it.

NEWS: Our first general election campaign ads are out today. My life is guided by the golden rule: Do unto others as you would like done unto you. Tennessee deserves a fighter who will take on politics as usual in BOTH parties. That's why I'm running for Congress in TN-09. votejustinj.com

Would be great to not have a senator that was lobbying for this but Gillibrand gonna Gillibrand.

TODAY: The Senate is expected to take up a bill that would turbocharge Trump’s corruption. There is absolutely no good reason for any Democrat to support this legislation. Email your senators and demand that they vote NO on the CLARITY Act.

I want to take the occasion of #StarTrek60 to pay tribute to Frank Verna III, who often hosted nightly viewings on WPIX during the ‘88-‘89 academic year at SUNY-Purchase. We lost Frank 12 years ago, and what a loss it is. Live long and prosper, and rest in power, wherever you are.

Thanks Elise!

Nearly 60K New Yorkers in the North Country are expected to lose Medicaid coverage thanks to the GOP's health cuts That's why I stood at Adirondack Medical to announce my Protecting Health Care & Lowering Costs Act: to reverse the cuts, restore ACA tax credits, & help families keep their insurance

Realize: what's destroying our country right now is not just Trump. Trump wasn't even supposed to be the main character! It's a concerted effort by multiple interest groups, with Thiel as a kind of ringleader. When Trump goes, it won't be over. It will be time for the sequel: Return of Ted Cruz. 7/

Still just sort of reeling from the incredible afternoon of live music during the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival at Tompkins Square Park yesterday. Pictured: The Ravi Coltrane Quartet. Absolutely stunning.

From today’s earlier meet and greet with Illapa Sairitupac @illapa.nyc Super excited to have him representing us in Albany as our Assembly Person for District 65. Illapa didn’t just come to talk, he also came to listen. Stoked to support him while he gears up to fight for us.

Of all the primaries that needed a challenger, even if it was just some symbolic pressure…. Alas.

I think it's bad that the Democrats' House leader is having secret chummy meetings with a guy doing a domestic ethnic cleansing operation and funding a genocide abroad, then spending his entire week going on cable news to complain about a lefty Twitch streamer who nobody knows. Sorry for offending.

Maaaaaybe I’m wrong, but has (Grateful Dead archivist) David Lemieux let some more “Canada” back into his accent? It’s always there, but to my ear it’s usually fairly subtle.
