In that case, let me say publicly that I love Elizabeth Warren & I think she can win. I love how smart and fearless she is, how she seems sincerely concerned about social justice, and how she has concrete plans for change. Also she seems very funny 😍😍😍

Reminder that today's "far left" is basically FDR-era policies + race/class/gender diversity. I'm never sure which part they object to

For the last two years of her life, Etty Hillesum kept a diary of her sexually liberated, intellectually roving, and deeply spiritual life in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam. Decades on, it was hailed as a literary masterpiece. New #FeminizeYourCanon @parisreview: theparisreview.org/blog/2019…

GOP defensively say, “we’re not scared of dancing women!” yet proceed to use footage of me dancing “with the color drained to make it look more ominous.” 🤣
Spoiler: The GOP *is* scared of dancing women, because they fear the liberation of all identities taught to feel shame.
The Democrat appearing in CPAC videos and speeches the most, by far: @AOC. More than any 2020 Dem. An Oliver North-narrated NRA video just ended with the footage of her dancing outside her office, with the color drained to make it look more ominous.

There is an essay in my book (all the essays are new & probably too long) about what I think are the seven defining scams of the millennial generation, from the recession to the election, with Fyre/Facebook/girlboss feminism etc in between! 🙈 penguinrandomhouse.com/books…
