I’m not saying I WAS RIGHT, but every time I get interviewed by the New York Times (today’s @nytstyle), I am vindicated.

This article is about @itsjojosiwa and her public transition to adulthood, and her attempts to have a Miley Moment. There’s a lot to say. One of these days maybe I’ll write that book.

I cannot overstate the horror of what I hear daily from trusted sources at MSU. Firebomb threats. LGBTQ students barred from running for campus leadership. N4zi images on campus. Most media won’t cover this, because everyone is scared.
I’m scared too. MSU students, faculty, and staff who are under attack: we stand with you.
