lotta colors and textured clouds over the Manhattan skyline

feeling sorry for all the millionaires and billionaires who didn’t get to see this perfect NYC sunset because they fled the city forever today. 😞

I was already a fan of Sabrina Carpenter. Now I'm ride-or-die.

call us old fashioned but, this account finds newsom's "check out my rock-hard AI nipples. they're absolutely glistening" platform less inspirational than pritz's "you fascists bring that shit here and I will personally fuck your asses up."

The problem is far bigger than Jeffrey Epstein | Rebecca Solnit Treating the scandal as an aberration misunderstands the global epidemic of violence against women

"One of the reasons the epidemic of violence against women is so unacknowledged is because cases like these are talked about individually, and often treated as though they are shocking aberrations rather than part of a pervasive pattern that operates at all levels of society."

“if you just ignore the raging grease fire and toxic black mold then this restaurant is michelin starred”

Well said. “Authors are ordinary people with talents” is my next tattoo :-)

Thank you for this. I really need more of this sort of thing in my feed, to counter all the drek.

This outfit definitely falls under #goals

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

I just hope more parents in Tennessee and parents in general realize you only have so much control over your children and what they become, and the best way to fuck of your relationship is by dictating who they must be, even at an early age.

This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.

Yes. When you crack this code, will you let us know? (She types after checking notifications she checked moments before)

Same. It feels like a creepy way to disrespect yourself (and whoever reads the result)

My student said she’s navigating life’s chaos by perfecting her “smokey eye,” so I asked her to give me a tutorial and let’s just say that now I look the way 2025 feels.

So does thinking about opening the file and eating some gummy bears ;-)

I love everything she writes. There’s no book like it, and it’s even better on a second read.

Fair warning though, I will write it on this letterhead.

Look, a thing about me is that at this point the only way to ensure I write you a letter of rec is to attach a picture of a heron. That’s just how it is, kids. Herons or bust.

We can become pen pals when I assume my rightful place as a Swamp Goddess :-)

Sort of extraordinary how you keep painting pictures of my life goals :-)

I’ll see your “book I keep open in the background” and raise you a “script I keep writing on my notes app.” 🥹

At least this way the task gets stuck in your head until you address it :-)

Thank you for this list! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate knowing which books to fix my attention on. Otherwise it just goes wandering aimlessly about :-)

Love this artwork. Might be my new style goal :-)

Hahaha! This is awesome. I need this to add this to my university letterhead.
