I find so many of the recent attacks on Mamdani really silly, and don't think the below is a big deal. But, as someone whose name is often mispronounced, I find it really stupid (and dishonest). If your name isn't common, people will likely mispronounce it. That will be true

“DEI” is to right-wing activists what “racism” became to some on the left: real issues turned into meaningless buzzwords, flung around to play the victim & shut down productive conversation. In so many ways, people like Charlie Kirk are what they claim to hate.

I saw the headline and thought, "surely, the op-ed can't be as stupid as the headline suggests." Reader, I was wrong. And if you don't believe me, here is a free link nytimes.com/2025/07/10/opi…

An exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC, originally conceived in 2021, repeats the now-debunked claim that the “unmarked graves” of 215 children were found in Kamloops, BC. I wrote the following letter to the curator, explaining why this needs to be corrected.

.Jeremy Corbyn: sit this one out. You were part of the "Committee for Peace in the Balkans" that didn't want "one-sided" NATO intervention to stop massacres like Srebrenica. You only care about people being killed when Israel is involved.

Mirhossein Mousavi, former Iranian PM who, despite being under house arrest since the 2009, remained a member of the regime's loyal opposition, has released a statement calling for a referendum to re-write the constitution. People-led regime change is inevitable.

Honestly, I feel sad for people who deliberately choose not to have kids, especially because they think it’ll ruin their lives. It’s incredibly hard but it’s also by far the most incredible life experience. Nothing comes close to raising your own kids and watching them turn into

این ادعا که پهلوی در چهار دهه گذشته موضع ثابتی نسبت به جمهوری اسلامی داشته، واقعاً مضحک است. (من همیشه از موسوی، خامنه‌ای و دیگر اعضای رژیم متنفر بوده‌ام، با این حال پهلویِ این ویدیو که اهل همکاری بود را به پهلوی امروزی ترجیح می‌دهم.)

"How could Trump [a man who lied to everyone his whole life about everything] have lied to us about the Epstein list?" has got to be my favourite genre of MAGA tweet.

Are there maybe, possibly, some downsides to forging closer ties to China? That question isn't answered in this op-ed. That question isn't even contemplated in this op-ed.

امیدوارم با رفتن افغانستانی ها آب و برق و اقتصاد و حکومت سکولار برگرده به ایران! چون اینجور که نسبت به افعانستانیها خشم دارید انگار ۴۷ساله اونا جمهوری اسلامی بودن ! #تف_به_نژادپرستی

The mass deportation of Afghan refugees and long-time residents is among the most shameful things Iran's shameful regime has done. And those Iranians cheering this on -- and regrettably they aren't few in number -- are truly disgraceful. nytimes.com/2025/07/16/wor…
