Considering how the anti-crime panic of the past several years has enabled Trump’s takeover of DC, I’ve been thinking about this piece I wrote for @newrepublic.com in 2021 about John Walsh, America’s Most Wanted, and our distorted understanding of “crime.” 🗃️ newrepublic.com/article/1632...

Photo of my fluffy white cat Francie meowing at the camera with her little pink, toothless mouth open looking like the cutest lil gremlin. The words art show are written in sloppy digital crayon above and below her face.

how do I tell one of my doctors “I told you so” w/o saying it lol because… I told him so (he’s perfectly nice he just was wrong about me not having a pain flare from a cortisone shot)
