Liquid Glass is beautifulllll

My six-year-old just said Cake Pop Demon Hunters, and now I can't unhear it. Somebody needs to make this a thing.

Lied. Trump LIED. He did not “misstate” anything. If we can’t trust journalists to be honest and tell the truth, what are we even doing? RIP democracy. @nytimes.com

Goals. Bless you, Frank. 🙏

I went to Disneyland last week for the first time ever. It felt like a pilgrimage and was truly everything I’d hoped it to be.

This is pure gold. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long, long time.

Designed for mass shootings, but same idea applies here. Too early to know anything.

True or false: Imagine Dragons is just Nickelback for kids.

On Juneteenth and forever… Honor, don’t bury or whitewash the history of our ancestors who were lynched. (National Lynching Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama)

Breaking: HHS is canceling a $600 million contract with Moderna to develop, test, and license vaccines for flu strains that could trigger future pandemics, including the dangerous H5N1 bird flu virus.

Y'all the new Lilo and Stitch movie is SO much better than the original.

Super intrigued by this…

Maybe it's because I'm an esteemed elder Millennial, but I find Canva on iPhone to be SOOOOOO difficult to use compared to the desktop. Anybody else?

The Jack Black SNL was incredible. It felt silly. Clever. Creative. He brought so much energy, and you could tell the cast had a great time. Bonus: The Ego stand up set was hilarious. And I am so here for the petty Morgan Wallen shade.

Look—honestly, is there a better description of pastoral work than “mysterious and important?” #severance

It’s so good… everyone should read it.

Lololol ok but I'm here for it

This is insane.

This is the kind of loss that stings for UNC but also the kind that carries them into the elite eight.

This is stunning.

When do we get to stop calling them email blasts?

I'm leading a virtual 4-week reading group on Oliver Burkeman's Meditations for Mortals beginning this Monday, March 17, at 7p on Zoom. Lmk if you want to join. While not explicitly focused on Lent, the book is fitting for the season. Open to everyone. (Seriously.) Interest form >> https://tally.so/

Early morning cedar waxing spotting in my neighborhood. A lifer for me.

I’ll be honest. I didn’t love Wild Robot. It was good, but the book was so much better.

Um… probably because we're happier?

I still miss this one.

If any of my fellow former Target-goers are contemplating joining Costco, I found this discount and coupon deal tonight: www.stacksocial.com/sales/costco...

My partner: I can't find my phone Me, knowing it's on vibrate: (don't say it, don't say it...) Partner: Maybe I left it in my car. Me: (don't say it, don't say it…) Partner: Where could it be? Me, unable to hold it any longer: dO yOu WaNt Me tO cAlL iT? Partner: … Me: I couldn't help it!

We all lose hope that suffering in our lives & the world will ever end. I want to share w/you my faith & understanding that suffering can be transformed & redeemed. There's no such thing as a totally hopeless case. God is an expert dealing w/chaos...w/the worst that we can imagine. -Desmond Tutu

This thread articulates what’s at stake.

This is an excellent review

I would buy all of these.

This this this this this...

this website shows you how many jobs NIH funding creates for your state along with the overall economic activity generated www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-...

A blessing

Bluesky has been absolutely invaluable in this nonsense. Thanks for being here. 💙

The NIH grant cuts will make some clinical trials unable to continue. It will hamstring university research on cancer, Alzheimer's disease, EVERYTHING. It is literally going to kill people.

It doesn’t feel like too much to ask

Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings. But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.

We're not going to have midterms, are we?

Can’t wait for Kid Rock. 🙄

If you haven’t already, pick up a copy of @timothysnyder.bsky.social’s On Tyranny. It’s invaluable, and I think about it daily. bookshop.org/p/books/on-t...

Yes, yes, yes. Thanks for saying this. The space we hold for belonging, belovedness, and community is an important first step toward resistance, resilience, and healing—if for no other reason than to realize we're not crazy and we're not alone.

We probably all need to become more blatantly anti-Silicon Valley. Give me less innovation, and more soul. New technology doesn’t mean infinite progress especially without being grounded in what it means to be human.

The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory. — Howard Zinn
