This is Bowser. He thought the doorstop was a back scratcher at first, but then realized it is actually an enemy. 12/10

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

We will not forget

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

Big mistake. Huge.

if you can recommend anyone who knows american immigration law and is comfortable with talking about it on a podcast please let me know. would like to try to record something within the next few days

It’s been on mine for a while too but holy cow I’m glad I picked it from my TBR jar. What a wild ride!

Well this is a beautiful first paragraph ✨🩷🥹 #booksky

Book is: The Two Lives of Lydia Bird by Josie Silver 🐦

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.

I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

a golden retriever pup sits on some fresh snow beneath a clear blue sky. he’s holding one paw at the bottom left corner of the frame as if he’s taking a selfie. he has on a plaid vest and a dark blue harness, and, it must be said, has a bunch of snow glued to his little black nose. he was measuring with his snout. he’s sticking the tiniest tip of his pink tongue out, either because he’s concentrating or he’s about to lick all the snowflakes off his face.

This is Kai. He is on ski patrol reporting snow levels. According to his measurements, it has snowed. 12/10

Yesterday I finished Harry Potter 5 and DNF’d Lolita by Vladimir Nobakov (I could not stomach it nor could I understand the point of writing this kind of story). I started both of these books and am loving them so far!

What are we all reading this week? #booksky #bookclub #thriller #romance

Maine Coon Alert---her expression is all of us this morning.

a brown pitbull with tan eyebrow dots and a white chest sits in the backseat of a car, paws up on the center console, and makes a snarling expression at the fake rubber cockroach his human in the driver’s seat is holding in her hand. the pup’s eyes are narrowed, his snout crinkled up, and his front teeth slightly bared.

the person moved their hand with the fake cockroach slightly closer to Cobra’s face, and he is blurry as he jumps back in surprise. his teeth are still bared and his eyes intently focused on the monstrosity.

cobra has regained some confidence and is trying to stand even taller to tower over the little fake roach. his ears are pinned back, and he looks like he’d like to share some stern words with this intruder.

This is Cobra. His human showed him a fake cockroach and he got super grossed out. Knows an enemy when he sees one. 13/10

Asking for a friend #booksky

a golden retriever puppy stands inside a bathtub with his front paws propped up on the side. he's wearing a brown bear ear headband with two small sunflowers on the right ear. there's a smidge of concern in his face, but mostly he seems ready to get this over with.

This is Dunkin. He will not take a bath without his bear ear headband. Partly because it keeps his face dry, and partly because it helps him feel brave. 12/10

Ah the joys of being an adult 🤌🏼

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

Not to brag but the review by my AirBnB host called me an "ideal guest" because "she was hardly here and the time that she spent here was like she was not here", in case you were wondering what my best quality is

This is a black and white book cover showing a parent and toddler on some rocks with a choppy sea behind them. The books title ‘NESTING’ is in bright pink capital letters and there is a pink strip along the bottom and top of the book cover.

Just finished #nesting by #roisinodonnell, out at the end of January from @simonschusteruk.bsky.social . An exceptional, heartbreaking story of a woman trying to break away from psychological violence and starting again while keeping her family safe and together.

I think you should tell people how important they are to you not because they could leave at any moment, but because they're here now, and it's worth saying.

Love my mini indoor garden. I keep replacing the bulbs and flowers when they stop flowering. A source of winter delight.

You’re doing great ❤️

Drink up mama ☕️
