Watching Savannah Bananas reels and reading the angry comments from men about how it’s “gay” and “not a real sport”… meanwhile they’re selling out every game.

Go ahead; be mad. It’s so hard when all entertainment isn’t made to entertain *you*.

To be clear, if you’re defunding Sesame Street, you’re not the good guys in this story.

Jeff Bezos sending a group of women into space on a pleasure cruise is performative feminism.

Meanwhile actual women are being disenfranchised by the “Save Act”.

Don’t tell my daughters they can “grow up to be anything” while you pass legislation that makes it harder for them to vote.

This is what corruption looks like.

The image is a heatmap titled "Measles," showing measles cases across U.S. states from 1928 to 2003. States listed on the y-axis include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The x-axis spans years from 1928 to 2003. A vertical line marks the introduction of the measles vaccine around 1963. The color scale at the bottom ranges from blue (0 cases) to red (4,000+ cases), with shades of green, yellow, and orange indicating intermediate values (1,000, 2,000, 3,000 cases). Before 1963, many states show frequent high case numbers (yellow to red), while after 1963, cases drop significantly, with mostly blue indicating near-zero cases.

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”

Omg there’s a sign of light in the dark!!!

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin.

You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰

This is super important.

Let’s not be cute about it. A “shacket” is just a jacket the manufacturer didn’t want to pay to line. 🥴

12 hours of rain until the backyard is flooded, then swap to big clusters of snow just in time to create a sidewalk slurry for school drop off. Cue the winds picking up around noon.

Wow. Relevant over 100 years later.

Some color names demand to be read aloud just to feel them in your mouth.

Vermillion. Chartreuse. Cerulean.
I hear you whispering them under your breath right now.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important

Country boys in Christmas movies are always showing up with real trees to the surprise, disgust, and eventual enchantment of the city girl…but he’s never carrying a tree stand.

Where’s that tree going to go, Jackson?

A diverse flight crew of a gay guy, a Black man, and a woman

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Asked my three year old what she wants to do when she grows up…

“Read books and play.
And go to Disney World.
And look at the sun, look at the sea… and be there with me.”

She knows exactly what makes up the good life.

Today:
Our country is sinking into tyranny and I bought coffee.
Our country is sinking into tyranny and I made play dough.
Our country is sinking into tyranny and I graded quizzes.
Our country is sinking into tyranny and I read to my kids.
Our country is sinking into tyranny and I answered emails.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

Those little “inspected” stickers can go right to hell. #overstimulated

Actually…take the whole tag. I’m going to put everything in the washer anyway.
