I met a millennial who didn't know what a twink is. I had to explain it to him.

I've been busy chasing this guys around, but I finally got around to writing about it all! Well, some of it. This is a review of the literature combined with some anecdotal tidbits.

I don't think it's a coincidence that cops started acting extra out of hand once we let them wear military gear. Make them wear clown outfits for several years to restore humility to the job

My stress threshold has been redlining for a week now and I've had two anxiety meltdowns in three days - but my client's kitten is laying on top of my head purring away and it makes this moment a little better

Hey Sweetie How a birdsong from my childhood showed me how little I actually know.

Idk man, I've been thinking a lot about birds lately. And how little the general public (myself included) knows about the world we inhabit. #nature

The term "Biological sex" as used by the right is scientifically meaningless. But that's fine for them, because they aren't trying to do science. They're trying to enforce a class system. It doesn't matter that it's social constructs all the way down, it always has been, for five thousand years.

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

I read a lot of fiction, but the books that grip my heart and inspire me have a nonfiction trend.

(Fun fact: one of these authors is on this site and is sweet as heck.)
