Kinda like the casual ease with which Trump violates the Constitution. You’d think they have the same playbook or something.

May he rest in power.

lol I think you’re unclear on the concept 😉

Your moment of Zen

Lookit the size of them feet! Are chicks like dogs—puppy foot size indicates adult size?

Are “pregnant people” being changed to “pregnant women” just out of transphobia?

Dangerous Coats

by Sharon Owens

Someone clever once said
Women were not allowed pockets
In case they carried leaflets
To spread sedition
Which means unrest
To you & me
A grandiose word
For commonsense
Fairness
Kindness
Equality
So ladies, start sewing
Dangerous coats
Made of pockets & sedition

This graphic was created by a follower of the Alt NPS not long after the Orange Shitgibbon took office the first time. The ANPS was then and will be now a beacon of truth, humor, and light. I highly recommend that all my friends follow them.

Dark humor in today’s mail.

My husband, a federal employee, to his colleague while leaving work earlier this evening: “Well, I guess we’ll see what memos we get tomorrow.”

Tell me more about the New Fashioned!

Great jazz standards tonight by Trio Metro and vocalist Liz Pharrell at Athentic Brewing

I’m trying to mold my account here into something like the FB of old, so here’s some news about my day: I spent the afternoon reading and giving feedback on a friend’s draft of what will be a brilliant memoir of gender transitioning.

Because fuck the haters sideways with a machete.

Well, it’s owned by the NYT, which has debased itself repeatedly. I can’t imagine Wordle suddenly becoming the resistance army within the Gray Lady, but it’d be funny.

Cold and snow-covered in Winterville

I get that this is supposed to mimic Twitter (which I disliked) more than FB. I’m experimenting.

So here I am. Not because Sugarburg’s app quit fact-checking; that didn’t affect my feed. I’m here because I hope I can recreate the experience on FB back when it was good. That is, I just want to keep up with what’s going on in my friends’ lives, not meme after meme.
