⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A+ Mani/Pedi/Brunch conspirator. Would mani/pedi/brunch again.

A friend of mine calls it "sneezing a moustache."

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

A challenge coin.

never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.

anti-trans Dems ate shit last night

Digital illustration done in a graphite style on a toned paper background. A classic style mermaid seen sort of in profile with her body in an S-shape. Her hair is very long and flowing around in the expected way. She’s examining a human cranium with a hatchet embedded in it. She’s set against a swooshy shape filled with hatched shading. Under the bottom curve of her tail some small lettering reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

(1) Casey Means is a dreadful nominee and should not be confirmed.
(2) I don't have any desire to defend for-profit advertising of any kind.
(3) "Obesity is a national crisis" as a message both relies on and perpetuates bias against fat people.

All hands on deck, folks. This will effectively eliminate all books by queer authors and about queer lives, even books with secondary characters, books where the author or a character uses they/them pronouns. This bill will erase identities and harm kids. And it won't stop at public schools.

I mean yes, the real villain is often Ronald Reagan.

"Be reasonable about this," he says. "Meet me in the middle."
"OK," you say. You take a step forward.
He takes a step back.
"Be reasonable about this," he says. "Meet me in the middle."

Came across the phrase "cognitive DDOS" to describe our present culture.

Understood instantly what it meant.

A digital illustration in a colored pencil style. A drawing of a Polaroid SX-70, a foldable instant camera that some would say is one of the best cameras ever in history. It is silver and black with patches of brown fake leather on some of the body panels. It is unfolded into its characteristic mass of unlikely angles. The camera is set against a background rectangle filled with the colors filled with the colors of the Polaroid packaging rainbow. A photo is protruding from the camera and has developed to reveal only white letters on black reading ‘Maybe it’ll happen today’.

If this happens, I will buy your dog a new toy.

instantly assumed this was a kaiju situation

Didn’t think the first NYPD power struggle would start over literal snowflake bullshit

I feel this sentiment in my bones.

the burden of proof is on the mother-fucker asserting something.

A long horizontal sign based on the ones at CTA stations that tell what stop you’re at. It’s gray with red, purple, and brown bands at either ends. Four pigeons are perched on the sign in various pigeon poses as a sunrise is seen in the background. The sign itself reads, ‘Maybe It will happen today’

Since the early days of the space program, astronauts have quarantined before missions because any illness could be disastrous. It’s eminently logical — not “extreme” — for athletes who’ve trained their WHOLE LIVES for one event to take similar precautions in order to stay in peak physical condition

The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children

And all at once?? Not, like, a few at a time? Ludicrous.

Man, don't threaten me with a good time.

This picture smells like a warm embrace.
