Started my morning by calling my senators to tell them to call for and support a change in leadership. Suggested to @vanhollen.senate.gov that he should be leader.

Once again, I'm saying @vanhollen.senate.gov for Senate minority leader.

This is awful, but at least I feel confident that @vanhollen.senate.gov is raising holy hell within the Dem caucus.

The Senate is working on a Sunday! I actually have hope the shutdown will end!

Men: Women want a man who is 6', has a 6 pack, and makes 6 figures
Women: I want a man who will listen, make plans, and ideally carry snacks for when I have forgotten to eat and am about to be hangry.

Kinda bummed I didnt realize how nice it was going to be yesterday and didn't get my paddleboard out for one last paddle.

That is shitty. And my critique is not of you. But that because society demands things that cost money be profitable, they are forced to do shitty stuff like that.

The price is so high because so many people want to take the train in the NE. And the NE is the only profitable region. And because we demand everything that charges a fee is profitable, the NE tickets are high.

Guillermo Del Toro definitely reads and maybe writes on AO3, right (complimentary)

Guillermo Del Toro should adapt the @silviamg.bsky.social novel, Mexican Gothic.

Why does the cricut started pack not come with a cutting mat. A thing that is apparently necessary for many projects.

Also, follow Mark Parker in social media. A pastor and big advocate for immigratants. His parish pre election was in highlandtown and he was super involved in the community. He is also good about making sure he gets his info out in spanish as well.

I think the last show is tomorrow but would definitely recommend. The writing, acting, production was great. But it was very heavy. I knew most of the stuff about the prison system but hearing it all at once is stark.

Thanks! I saw it last night and it was spectacular. I really appreciate this creative director especially who has tried to make Center Stage a home for Black and queer creatives. Also, the next show is by the guys who did Mexodous. So pretty excited now.

Does Lena Waithe have some connection to Baltimore? Because she produces a Peculiar Patriot, which appears to have only been shown in prisons previously. And she is having the World Premier of her new play here in February. I mean, I know Baltimore is Black. But is there any other connection?

Basically if you have a deviated septum or polyp, go talk to an ENT. Because while they surgery sucks. Its still makes my life so much better

My breathing was so blocked before that even with a huge scab in my sinus that my doctor just removed, I still felt a million times better.

I am going to Center Stage tonight. But if you don't have plans, you should go on this tour. Sad to be missing it. Also, a reminder that if you go on enough tours, you get a super awesome mug.

I have no idea if this is true and I'm not high on the list of people this might happen to. But can you imagine. So many flat tires, clogged toilets, reply all emails, sharing the SharePoint? The list goes on and on.

Since no one took advantage of this awesome special yesterday, I’m making it good through today!

My coworker told me yesterday that some feds are being told they have to go work for ICE or get RIFed and I spent like 20 minutes daydreaming about all the chaos I could cause through petty incompetence before they fired me.

Call the White House and your members of Congress with this brilliant idea to protect the people's travel? Shut down the 12% of air travel that takes place in private jets--not the rest of our flights! Let them fly commercial so we can all reach our destinations!

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

I have an ENT appointment tomorrow. Going to see if there's any chance they have the covid vaccine. If not, will get mine this weekend. Already got the Flue shot from my PCP.

I canceled today. I was lured in previously by the $1 a week. But this is too much. I quit
