Someone in a meeting said I had switched quickly from football to basketball (Seahawks are local to me, so big deal this year). I glanced up, with all of the sass I could muster, and said "ew, you think I watch men play sports?" ☠️☠️☠️

We've all just got curling up on the dual monitors at work, yeah?

Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream is a good book on the topic!

Angel Reese jersey on today, hoping to channel some of that boss bitch energy.

We had maybe one morning with a dusting. Stopped buying the kids snow boots last year because they're used so infrequently 😭

This is my introduction to the word "asceticism." It's a good word.

I don't have any great scholarly thoughts here, but have certainly noted that restriction and removal of joy from daily experiences as a fad seemed to precede the latest shift to accepting and adoring starving bodies.

Please stop cutting to "famous" male partners when women do something cool. Especially when that person is Jake Paul.

Okay but my big question is why don't they tuck their glasses into the hoods instead of leaving them on the outside?

And listen, I'm no better than anyone else. I have other things that I should toss and haven't been able to. This one just stuck. But it wasn't until I stopped participating that I realized just how engrained it really is in culture.

I actually really enjoyed football. I watch all the Seahawks games, played Madden constantly as a kid, went to games when I was in college. I loved it.

Haven't watched a game in five years because I just can't support both the long-term brain injuries and the acceptance of DV and SA by the league.

Because the clients of these agencies are primarily looking to the system to provide them with a perfect substitute for the experience of natal parenthood, the industry that serves them conducts continual propaganda campaigns to try to boost the domestic infant supply.

one more thought about the Super Bowl #adoption ad by the NCFA. It isn’t about permanency for foster youth. It has nothing to do with stability for children already among us. It is the antiabortionist’s cross-partisan β€œtriangulation” strategy of mainstreaming adoption as an alternative to abortion.

It shouldn't happen to anyone, but it happening to Rickea... I'm HOT! Put him under the jail.

Just ... lifting up Rickea Jackson, and I hope the league and teammates are too. <3

I guess we can't be surprised by an organization that puts its headquarters in a state like Georgia that doesn't respect women πŸ€ͺ

Another day, another "is this cat puke or food" meal that turns out to be delicious☠️

aka, Hulk beans. Blended spinach, cottage cheese, and some pesto with chickpeas and some parmesan. Add dippy bread. Simple AF 🀌🏻

Reign forever, but there's at least one Thorn I'll root for. Wonderful to see more NWSL talent who are outspoken in this way.
