An Apple+ executive inadvertently makes a strong argument for the importance of unions—the bosses will never cave unless they’re forced to. “The only way writers will get more money or time or anything else is by getting what they want into a contract.” allyourscreens.com/en/component/k…

It's infuriating to see explicit calls for state violence like this get filed under "culture war wedge issue." At some point you have to take seriously that the people pushing this stuff really do want to punish and hurt trans people and their families. twitter.com/ErinInTheMorn/…

Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers. He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.

Please consider this a commitment that I will fund fixing the water in any house in Flint that has water contamination above FDA levels. No kidding.

The Model Alliance will be given the inaugural Positive Social Influence Award at the 2021@CFDA Awards, an honor that simultaneously acknowledges Ziff and her team’s achievements, and highlights the fact that there’s much yet to do. vogue.cm/nlAyRqt

For this week’s @nytmag I wrote about actress-director Rebecca Hall and her new adaptation of Nella Larsen’s “Passing,” out on ⁦@netflix⁩ very soon! This book played a large role in my own multiracial reckoning, and is sure to ignite conversations. nytimes.com/2021/10/20/mag…

Democratic leaders pushed Henry Cuellar over Jessica Cesneros in Texas, pushed Ed Case over Kaniela Ing in Hawaii, Carolyn Bourdeaux over Nabilah Islam in Georgia. Now Pelosi and her leadership team are watching all 3 threaten to blow up the party's entire agenda.

Judge Preska—a leader of the Chevron-funded Federalist society—needs to open up my trial to public scrutiny immediately. What are you hiding?

Bill Gates could pay the entire $25 billion needed to vaccinate low- and middle-income countries globally and he would still be $31.5 billion richer than he was before the pandemic. Greed is a terrible addiction that must be cured by taxing the rich and ending drug monopolies.

Completely and utterly unacceptable. Biden promised to welcome immigrants, and people voted for him based on that promise. Upholding the xenophobic and racist policies of the Trump admin, incl the historically low + plummeted refugee cap, is flat out wrong. Keep your promise.

Breaking News: The Biden administration will keep its cap on refugee admissions at the low level set by the Trump White House, walking back an earlier pledge. nyti.ms/3eadvJw

You know what would be really revolutionary? If all the female filmmakers over 50, whose careers were destroyed by the misogyny of Hollywood, were now given money to direct the movies they never got to make.

Robert Packer—who celebrated the mass murder of 1m people at Auschwitz—was released with no bond after violently storming the Capitol. I've been under pre-trial house arrest for 17 months after winning a pollution case against Chevron. Again: What are U.S. courts protecting?

I think we should have a federal holiday to honor the people we’ve lost to COVID. It’s the least we can do to make space for all the grief chaos has forced us to displace.
