fDon’t hurt yourself; freeze them and make banana bread out of them!

lol society hates moms and then gets mad and surprised when women are like "nah, motherhood ain't for me". 🤷🏿‍♀️

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

I really hope this is real

We made these shirts in the early 2000s. Thinking about doing another run (with slight updates). #KnowYourRights

Pick one or two lanes and keep at it. You are one person and cannot do everything or take 10 actions a day.

I am tired. We are all tired

Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post, and the Cost of Speaking Out As Saudi Arabia hosts comedians and courts gamers, the silenced voice of Jamal Khashoggi still echoes.

I wrote this piece about 7th anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi's murder.

On the costs of speaking the truth in today's world.

And how Jamal's memory still stalks Saudi Arabia--- and the Washington Post.

This is a great time to lean into local community and make sure you have folks' current contact information. Check on your strong friends. Check on your trans friends. Check on your disabled friends. Check on folks.

Step 1: Acknowledge you're all out of comfortable or convenient options

Step 2: Consider their alternatives w/ protecting the most vulnerable and achieving the goal of saving the greatest number of people the most harm as 1st priority

Step 3: Collaborate w/ people doing Step 2 or get out the way

It is about time journos are calling it

"I don't think people like you should have any rights and I would prefer it if you didn't even exist. Debate me," is not a call for a calm, rational, reasoned debate.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Remember, they didn’t burn witches. They burned women. And I have no doubt that some would like to bring that practice back.

The shingles shot is a whopper, but shingles is worse

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

last week I got my flu and covid booster shots. Today I took some acetaminophen…which i can pronounce. I feel better.

The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
