Schools in Springfield, Ohio are currently closed due to bomb threats that explicitly reference getting rid of Haitian immigrants.

I grew up in Ohio, and it is infuriating to see violence so clearly fueled by the president’s baseless lies about our immigrant communities.

I love reality tv. Love watching, learning from, and reading about it

@stephenfishbach.bsky.social nailed it. Escape! feels like watching Survivor: All Stars & UnREAL at once

Enough easter eggs to make you smile w/o taking you out of the story. A triumph of the fictional reality tv genre

Folks, it feels like below zero. The wind is atrocious. Don’t leave your homes for anything.

However…

We regret to inform you that, after this morning’s prediction, Staten Island Chuck the Groundhog is no longer a trusted member of NYC government.

I love a memoir and loved dance moms so can’t wait! Idk if you’re into reality tv (and books about it) in general but Behind the Mirror was really good (big brother) and Parvati Shallow’s memoir Nice Girls Don’t Win (survivor) was fantastic!

There is no better feeling as a woman than anticipating a huge shower with lots of creams. I’m about to get slimed up later.

As someone who does this for a living, I do believe the general public would be surprised by how many elected officials run their own social media accounts. It is more than everyone seems to believe, yet not the people everyone seems to think is doing it themselves.
