technically Hot!Scarecrow mentions the winkies in the first film

but i do agree we should have had winkies

as someone from fort worth, i approve this message

DM: The orange fascist lurks in his lair, hunched behind his massive desk, revelling in his stolen power. His acolytes hiss at you as you approach. What does your human bard do --

MAMDANI: Let's fucking go. <FLUTE TRILL>

one of the main reasons the US won the revolutionary war was because Washington insisted on smallpox inoculation for every member of the military. That was TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS AGO.

When we learned Carol purposely straight-washed her romantic lead to sell books I read it as self loathing? Girl sold a bit of her soul and is furious because of it.

Just constantly self dealing and annoying everyone by ring huge bodyguards to ranching events

I watch it because Fort Worth and because I’m just so fascinated by how frequently atrocious it is?

also because of how it tries to make Fort Worth glamorous. LMAO

really love how everyone now just says the quiet part out loud

I love that one so much—and a friend just saw another of hers in Florence! Queen producing many different variations of a queen!

Still thinking about how many school districts, including Fort Worth ISD, no longer teach entire novels to students. Just excerpts.

socializing on social media is like socializing in a school cafeteria. it is carefully cultivated and maintained by others and the threat of suspension for saying something objectionable is high.

but the socializing sure is convenient!

the world is terrible but this queen is at the Kimbell in Fort Worth through mid January and it is absolutely worth the visit.

she is Karen Prime

if i understand it correctly that “clean bill”
- killed US hemp
- further cut food safety
- gave a few senators enormous financial handouts for their possible roles in Jan 6

Saw the terrific terrific Librarians in Fort Worth tonight. it’s all about the white christian nationalist push to ban books in the US—including in the town I’m currently living in! Terrific group of people.

crossing my fingers Trump tries to do a Cuomo and distract from Epstein by legalizing weed.

But weed tastes better! do not be afraid weed lobby.

Patrick tried this ban in Texas at the behest of the liquor lobby. Curious who got Mitch to add it to the spending bill.

as someone who just moved from a weed state to a hemp state i hate them.

One of the most timely and terrific books i’ve read this year was Greg Grandin’s America, América. It’s most haunting part was its painfully incisive assessment of the modern US in its final pages

Anyways just like you shouldn’t blame writers and editors at GMG for spanfeller be informed before you blame conde writers and editors. they’re doing largely excellent work and shouldnt be the target of anyone’s outrage.

this condé nast thing, from what’s been reported, reminds me of when Spanfeller fired Barry because the whole union was waiting in the hallways before a big meeting. reflexive terminations are never a wise move when dealing with union activity. it just makes the upset workers furious.

Me: I’m gonna watch that new show where Garfield gets assassinated!

Mom: (horrified) who would kill a cartoon cat?

Yeah I’m not a fan. But cant change things from another state.

I’ll def be back in town quite a bit! not just for weed and broadway shows!!

someone will tell you that hemp-based products are just as good but the flavor is NOT. The people who tell you this are used to the skunky dry stuff from high school. others will tell you to get a prescription and go to oklahoma.

but they forget that then you are in oklahoma and that’s ain’t right

I moved to Texas from New York last month and I’m surprised at what I find myself longing for. I miss my friends and good Asian grocery stores that don’t require 40 mile drives. the parks and theater. the loss of top bars too. yet not the loss of fine dining or NYC museums
but god man i miss weed.

i don’t normally endorse going full dentures when you have healthy teeth but i feel all of your loved ones might in your case.
