The fact that there’s a secret network of doulas going around Minneapolis to help with home births for parents afraid of ICE should be front-page news.

These children, born in secrecy, are American citizens.

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.”

They pulled a Target.

So I think it's fair to say that only a tiny, tiny percentage of the US population was tied up with Epstein. But weirdly maybe 70% of the people in the field of evolutionary psychology.

I really can’t believe they’re letting him actually *do* the SOTU.

That man has advanced dementia. He can barely stand for 5 minutes and it’s called “sundowning” because that is the WORST time of day for all the most notable and distressing symptoms.

But sure. Put him on TV about it.

Email to USA Hockey

Formal invitation to the hockey team sent,,, if any people with connections to the hockey team wanna have them email my team my bio. I’m for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

The thing about the women’s hockey team declining the SOTU invitation is in part that sometimes, if you do not need certain kinds of power, you get to retain others.

I really appreciate this TikToker with Tourette syndrome, Shay, for taking the time to educate so many of us (including me) about her disability and coprolalia in light of what happened at the BAFTAs with John Davidson when Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage.

I learned a lot.

When someone gives you that permission to dispense with apologies, you can. But until then, assume they’re necessary. Even if they’re tedious and repetitive.

What’s crazy is that there is a scene *in the film* where he has an offensive tic, but it’s directed at someone who knows him. She says “in this house, you don’t need to apologize for what you can’t control. To others who don’t know, you do need to. But not to me.”

It’s in the film!

(I know why.)

I don’t understand this argument at all. If you roll over someone’s foot with your heavy electric wheelchair that you definitely need, you would apologize no issue and no one would argue you shouldn’t use it. Why is this different?

So for women who need life-saving abortion care it’s die if you do, die if you don’t.

Black folks have a right to go into public spaces and not have slurs hurled at them. Two things can be true. You can be empathetic to this person and their Tourette’s, but also be empathetic to Michael B Jordan, and Delroy Lindo.

For one more season 😭

No heroes in that screenshot that’s for sure.

Corporations: We are collections of people & therefore deserve the civic rights afforded all people.

Me: Ok. May I talk to a person?

Corporation: No. Never again.

Feels like this should be bigger news in the US given how “serious” the current regime is about stopping drug criminals?

The last time U.S. men's hockey won gold, Philip and Elizabeth Jennings retaliated with a decade of mayhem on behalf of the Olympic favorite

All fun and games for now

I feel like my peers and I were on the last helicopter out of Vietnam or something.

I am so glad I escaped my time in the education system before ed tech was a thing.

The extent of tech involvement in my education: being told my typed assignments had to be 12pt font, single spaced, and a TI-83 graphing calculator.

It’s ranch dressing. I know. I know.

It has something of a Noises Off quality to it that absolutely preserves the silliness.

Have you seen the musical adaptation of the source book. “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder”?

Oh no.

I liked Wuthering Heights. 🫣

I hated the book so that probably explains it.

a woman in a dark room with the words does n't look like anything to me ALT: a woman in a dark room with the words does n't look like anything to me

Me whenever that name comes up.

I still have no idea what a Will Stancil is and you can’t make me.

This is entirely a compliment. But I’m stuck on how did she do one of the most technically advanced and difficult free skate routines of all time and make it as fun, engaging, and accessible as Disney on Ice???

Cheese and crackers I’m so frustrated I can’t feel my feet.

THEY COLLECTED
THAT REVENUE
FROM US!!!!!!

If they wanted us to “see” it they could have just left it in our fucking pockets!!!!!!
