Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

Have I ever seen a group of Faithfuls as bad at the game as this current Celebrity UK edition?? Soooo entertaining, though, I love them all! #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK

“Surely I too can drink from the whites-only water fountain”

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

Among the greatest promotional photos of all time are these for the 1990 television movie of IT, where it looks like a prestige legal drama about a firm of hot young lawyers and one associate who likes to dress up like a clown.

Amaya Papaya top of every list for me! Huda / Chelley sitting at the bottom... sorry, but, I'm over both of them. Ace and Taylor both down in the sewers, too. #loveIslandUSA

Always loved the people who are like, "But my ancestors came here the legal way!" and by that they mean they arrived via ratship to an island, a man asked them their name, they were like, "Uh, Jeff... Smith?" another guy said "sure?" and then they became permanent residents of the United States.

Ok, stop letting the cast vote on who stays and goes. Two strikes now. #LoveIslandUSA

Seems like we're all about to find out!

I agree, I loved this season and found a lot of it relevant and resonant. Amazing job by everyone who worked on it.

Today’s NYT connections is like something the jigsaw killer would make, come on.

Pretty sure they are angry because the government is trying to defy the law and go around the law, not because of politics.

Libs: "Black Lives Matter"

Conservatives: "All Lives Matter"

Conservatives, again: "Maybe not all Lives, but definitely Blue Lives Matter"

Conservatives, yet again: "Well not all Blue Lives, but at least Officers who Support the Convicted Felon Lives Matter"

😀 I've been here a month or two now but didn't know any of my real life friends were, too! Glad we can be in it together.

ah, the old conservative two-step:

1. deliberately sabotage a thing

2. oh look, the thing is having problems, guess we’ve got to pay twice as much to my buddy to replace it with worse and more expensive service

It would be cool if anyone criticizing Biden’s pardon of his son looked at virtually any other post-Nixon president, addressed the non-reasoning or middling reasoning the others gave in comparison to Biden, or realized that this will have literally zero effect on what Trump will do.

Books

Just added to the collection

If you have recommendations along the same lines, I'd love to have them!

In recent years, I've also started working my way through Iona Whishaw's Lane Winslow series set in post-war Canada. Lots of spy stuff in that series, if you're into that sort of thing.

When those authors are in between
#books , I also really love the authors Lynn Messina's and Andrea Penrose's female-led regency-era
#mysteries . They have a much lighter tone and a romance element, but they are so fun. Really really enjoying Messina's Verity Lark series right now.

Let's talk #books -- in my middle-age I have gotten really specific with genre and I tend to stick to British murder #mystery. A few of my favorite authors in the genre over the past two decades have been Kate Atkinson, Anthony Horowitz, and Tana French (hers actually are Ireland-based).

I guarantee that the Republican Senate and the Supreme Court will tell us that is exactly the purpose a few months from now.

I wouldn't by any means say that I'm an early adopter of new technologies, but I do tend to start my social media accounts earlier than the other 2 people in the world with my same name so... good for me, I guess? I'm a Leo, expect self-absorbed posts from me.
