Great. Now do something about it.

Students who are scared of judgement so they perform cynicism... I see this in some young organizers too.

This is precisely why I constantly say that sincerity is A VIRTUE. Let's bring back EARNESTNESS:

I asked ChatGPT what will I be?
Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?
Here's what it said to me:

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
STICK YOUR HAND IN THE GARBAGE DISPOSAL

labubu? aren't those just injuries in france?

There’s been a robust discussion on the #StarTrek subreddit about cancelling @paramountplus.com even though a new season of SNW just started. This is such a big deal because Trekkies are very hard core.

make art! if it's the end of the world, you might as well make art! if it's not the end of the world, then the future will be better because people made art right now!

My point is, the US has been involved in conflict in the Middle East in one form or another for almost my entire life.

Leave us millennials alone. We’re tired and we’re not going back.

We pulled out of Afghanistan 2021.

And now…?

I remember the “shock and awe” campaign against Iraq in 2003. I had just graduated high school and many of my friends and classmates put their lives on hold to serve in the ongoing conflict.

I remember the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan. I was a senior in high school. I was 17.

One of my earliest memories and the first big news story I remember was the begining of Desert Storm in 1991. I was 7 years old.

at least toby keith is dead this time

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

A woman walking home alone was shot point-blank with “non-lethal” rounds fired by officers in Los Angeles. A neighbor filmed the assault and rushed to help only to be fired on and ordered back.

While I share everyone’s amusement at the very public falling out of two unrepentant narcissists, can we not compare them to a gay couple gojng through a messy breakup? Please by all means give them the ridicule they deserve, but gay jokes during pride month are a bad look.

Foxx: This is the American Dream story they all claim to support. I’m a first-generation American, raised by a single mom in Section 8 housing. SNAP benefits—food stamps—put food on our table.

Those social safety nets—they are not handouts, they are hand-ups.

You want June to be Veterans Month instead of Pride? November is already Veterans Month.

If you don’t already know that, you don’t care about veterans. You just hate gay people.

I think I’ll listen to the Boss today…

It’s really striking how irregular the bands of mostly men conducting federal immigration enforcement are. They seem to have no particular uniform, they wear a variety of different agency initials on their tactical vests, or none at all, they’re inconsistent about displaying a badge…

I made 38K my first year teaching in Arkansas. I held a BA.

I made 41K in Missouri after 16 years of teaching. I held an MA.

See the problem?

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

American Pope is the name of my Bad Religion cover band.

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter.

They graded it.

Bwahahaha.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS.

Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!”

Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

Safety message: Make your coffee before assisting others with their coffee.

me listening to music: 🙂
me listening to music that has a saxophone in it: 😀

@docholaday.bsky.social we need to make stickers that say “Authoritarianism gives you hemorrhoids”

Stay safe out there today. 💪🏻
