this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart

1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks

2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

The narrative of Christianity is asymmetrical. Why Jerusalem? Why this and not that? The questions will forever and perpetually lead away from symmetrical order; rather, they iconify what makes reality itself interesting.

And that is a phenomenonal spontaneity.

I agree with President Donald J. Trump on Space and his space policies.

I don’t agree with President Trump’s policies on other matters but I am not an expert on those matters.

This is America and if Americans did not want Donald Trump to be President, he would not be. And he is. Full stop.

We Will Rise Again edited by Karen Lord, Annalee Newitz, and Malka Older We Will Rise Again manages to hold many apparent contradictions within its pages.

Johnny Appleseed in Space Once upon a time in America-meets-New Space

Indeed. Though my focus was on Johnny Appleseed, I explored many of the great space botany projects–like the aforementioned moon trees as well as space tomato seeds–before shipping the JA apple seeds to space aboard the (messy) 2019 test flight of Starliner. mikemongo.medium.com/johnny-apple...

Raising two kids, leisure reading time simply no longer exists. Audiobooks can happen between daily trips to daycare, or school, grocery, soccer, library, etc. I don’t give my kids tablets, I spend most of my waking time with both, and I am allowed some me time. Audiobooks are now friends and peers!

audiobooks are great and count as reading!! if you don't like visual books or have a schedule that makes them difficult, read an audiobook!
