💗💗💗 hi!!! I texted you sometime last year but never heard back. So glad to hear from you here! How are you doing?!

Do not let Brett Kavanaugh's increasingly reactionary politics distract you from the simpler fact that Brett Kavanaugh is a dullard and a shitty writer whose colleagues all (albeit for different reasons) very obviously have nothing but contempt for him

Alysa Liu’s Olympic run came with terms. Her choreographer helps her express them Liu is the best U.S. hope for an Olympic medal in women's figure skating, which would be the country's first in the competition since 2006.

“When Liu, 20, decided to return to skating, she did so with conditions. She’d wear what she wants. Dance to the music she wants. Eat what she wants. Take breaks when she wants…. [Skating] would be the vehicle through which she displayed the real Alysa.”

she did it! her! way!!

This really is a great picture:

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

Democratic governors to boycott White House dinner More than a half dozen Democrats said Donald Trump disinviting two of their colleagues is the latest example of administration's 'chaos and division.'

No way will I attend the White House dinner with this President.

I’m standing with @govwesmoore.bsky.social and @colorado.gov — and standing against Trump’s corruption and hatred.

And I’m calling on my Republican colleagues to do the same.

“suspected political message”

Anyway, back to the METS

This post is extremely tough to write. Last night, I lost my best friend/husband from complications after what was supposed to have been a simple procedure. Our hearts are shattered, my babies are shattered. Our whole family is lost. This was so unexpected. Everything Zane does is centered around his dad. Baseball,hunting,fishing. Skylyn said “i dont have a daddy anymore,he’s up in heaven in the stars”. I don’t know where to go from here. I feel like I’m living my biggest nightmare and feel so lost. He loved his children with everything in him. He loved coaching the youth and those boys absolutely loved him. Please keep our family in your prayers for the coming days and for the strength to get through this. Life is precious and is too short. What I would do to give you one more hug or kiss. We had so many more memories to make 🙏🏼 I love you forever Terrance Gore and I’ll continue to watch over our babies.

Him and I have been friends on Facebook for years. His wife and other friends have made posts this morning about it.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The older girl's poem - written out of RESPECT - cracked my fucking heart.

Ernie Banks wears a home pinstripe Chicago Cubs jersey and signs a baseball, circa 1973. (Doug McWilliams/National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum)

Ernie Banks’ boundless optimism, along with his powerful swing, made him a perfect fit for the Friendly Confines of Wrigley Field.

Macaulay Culkin pays tribute to his on-screen mother Catherine O’Hara:

“Mama. I thought we had time. I wanted more. I wanted to sit in a chair next to you. I heard you. But I had so much to say. I love you. I'll see you later.”

Not me grief-eating chocolate chip cookies while sobbing to "Somewhere in my Memory."

Catherine O'Hara Dead at 71 Catherine O'Hara -- famous for her work in "Schitt's Creek," "Home Alone," and "Best In Show" -- is dead ... TMZ has learned.

Catherine O’Hara gave us all so much. Her comedy inspired me. Her characters served as proxy mothers for many of us.

All of our lives, and our culture more broadly, are better because of her life and work.

Catherine O’Hara didn’t steal scenes she just showed up and ownership automatically defaulted to her

Noooo 😢
