"Vibes" and "culturally" are doing a lot of work here. It's a way of not having to state that rich Republican candidates are good at overcoming class differences with appeals to bigotry. You can say "Democrats need to find a way to fight that," but you can't pretend it's not the problem.
You can't make this up.
Also--this gets weird--"I hate gay halloween" is itself a gay internet meme; that sentence in the NYT story links to an Out Magazine piece that makes it clear that "I hate gay halloween" is used solely as a way of posting pix of fantastic costumes. So why not just write a celebratory headline?
Once the media admits that a gay phenomenon is actually fun and not harmful, the next phase is generally to decide that it isn't gay. So look for headlines like "Gay Hallowe'en Isn't Just for Gays Anymore" a year from now. (BTW, no piling on to this writer, please. The story is not malicious.)
Gonna be the Gay History Nerd for a sec: This headline continues a decades-old tradition of explaining gay cultural phenomena to readers via straight confusion/resentment--and of assuming that highly specific references are designed to confuse or exclude, not delight. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/s...
This is a rabbit hole well worth falling into. Go down into the replies and up into the quote tweets, and enjoy a fantastic group writing project.
Today is Lee Grant's 100th birthday. This remarkable movie/TV/stage actress and filmmaker is the definition of a survivor. Read up on her fascinating life. Better yet, see her movies! (Also, if you can hunt down anything from her Emmy-winning run on Peyton Place, totally worth it.)
I know I've posted a lot about this, but even if you don't live in New York, you have to admit that the Andrew Cuomo campaign is...something special.
Scene from my early '70s childhood:
Me, in probably flammable Batman costume, holding orange box: "Trick or treat for Unicef!"
Scary voice from behind closed apartment door: "I hate the goddamn United Nations! Let me see that--"
Me: [runs, terrified]
Happy Hallowe'en, everyone!
I would 100% watch another season of The Crown. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/30/w...
"I'm holding my nose and voting for Cuomo." Yeah, and? Nobody is going to award you bonus points for supporting someone you have the discernment to know is awful. Elections are only about results. You vote for him, you own the consequences.
People will say this is very esoteric--and it is--but it's also astonishing.
LOL god it's...very possible.
Good try, wrong answer.
Yesterday someone glowered at the sticker on my jacket and snapped "I don't share your politics!"--and all it said was "Manhattan Votes Early." Maybe she'll like my "Jews for Mamdani" button more. Here's hoping!
Nah, you made the accusation, so you search it, and come back with specific examples or drop it. I'm not here to do your homework for you.
