Alysia Liu going for pure joy in complete DGAF mode is an inspiration. Also if she’s this DGAF at 20 (remember being 20?)…what will she be like at FIFTY? Watch out world.

And same to you. Art sees us through.

Years ago when I was married to a man I loved dearly and deeply, I would post pictures of him and of us on Valentine’s Day. And then that ended horribly. I’m so sorry for “flexing” on Valentine’s.

(I am happily partnered and have been for over 10 years now but will no longer “flex”).

it's #SuperbOwl Sunday! Best day of the year. For your consideration, the Blakiston's fish owl. Largest owls in the world (six-foot wingspans, weigh close to a bald eagle), salmon eaters, live year-round in remote forests of northeast Asia. 🦉

I love your grandma.

I think it's entirely possible that when we topple the fascist regime currently running the US, and we will, we will look back on the beginning of 2026 as the moment when the tides turned.

In social change, the oppressor rarely admits defeat and collapses entirely all at once.

My new approach is to “match energy.” It’s time.

It can get lower!

Threads post that says “The hardest part of menopause is the fascism…”

I got no words. Just rage.

I am at the age where wearing vintage clothing makes me look like I’m just wearing my old clothes.

I like that the same day a guy was like “this place will never be Twitter” this thread gave us the most 2015 Twitter experience (complimentary) imaginable.

They’re coming for all of us and the most privilege-minded ones need to WAKE UP.

That “developing courage in real time” was remarkable to watch.

From the minnesota community on Reddit: ST. PAUL, MN: A sobbing resident calls 911 as federal agents force their way into her home to chase down a DoorDash driver who was just trying to deliver food. Explore this post and more from the minnesota community

Everybody should watch this and see this woman, who has a baby in her arms and is thrust into basically a standoff, develop courage in real time.

Have we ALL learned that “law enforcement” is NOT on our side? They will shoot you. It’s fucked up. But they will kill all of us for “not obeying.”

Been researching this bc it’s part of a story I’m writing and it’s epic. And it kept returning in waves!!!

I am looking forward to Saeed the Elder.

Korean Buddhist temple food. There are cookbooks now by at least two Korean monks.

Accidental Emily Dickinson poem.

Lord, please never let me be hated by someone as skilled as that Vanity Fair photographer. Let all my haters be incompetent.

Will be using Calibri for the indefinite future.

Why is it when folks say “my old lady,” it means wife/girlfriend….and when folks say “my old man,” it means not husband or boyfriend but father?

Huh.

I wish writing were like GPS where if you do something weird or make a wrong turn, the story just continues (without judgment) and somehow still makes sense. But nope.

Apparently there was some discourse? And I missed it?

Wait. What discourse on Toni Morrison did I just miss??? Are ppl besmirching her genius?

Most movies from the 80s and 90s don’t age well. Cutting Edge got a lot right, including the concept of consent.

Please please please double space your essays when submitting. When you are >50 and on your 20th essay read of the day, you will understand what an immense courtesy it is to double space.

Just saw a man running across the street in SF holding a toilet plunger in one hand and an empty glass coffee carafe in another.

This is a story.

S.F. Fleet Week air show photos: Meet the ‘rock star’ Canadian Snowbirds With the Blue Angels sidelined by the government shutdown, a team of Canadian flyers was promoted to a starring role in this year’s San Francisco Fleet Week festivities.

wow, SF is so insistent on Fleet Week, that bc the Blue Angels aren't available (due to govt shutdown), we are getting "Canadian Forces Snowbirds." Are we in a mockumentary, clue #257.
