Congratulations to "Legendary Frybread Drive-In: Intertribal Stories" for winning the Michael L. Printz Award! 🏆 #alayma

Every administration, every faculty senate, every board of trustees who forced their institutions to bend the knee over this shit should immediately be fired. Their presence dishonors the profession and the institutions they supposedly serve.

Excellent work Morris committee #alayma

Yay, Kacie! Amazing leader

I miss the community I used to have around the YMAs, but my brain wouldn’t cooperate with all that reading these days even if there were no theoretical conflicts of interest

In the super decorated Halloween neighborhood there is an elaborate Mario themed yard with a big “Free Luigi” sign

Every business, government agency, media outlet and human person that continues to post on or go near X is consciously collaborating with the most openly white supremacist public figure since Hitler. There is no excuse.

Middle aged parenthood is humming songs from Kpop Demon Hunters while realizing at this point your "type" when it comes to celebrities are guys who are proudly devoted to their hot wives 🤷‍♀️

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that the people who think Aunt Jemima was real also don't know who Joel Chandler Harris was

Sunrise on the Reaping should be called "I see you still don't fucking get it" by Suzanne Collins

"Suzanne has HAD IT" by Suzanne Collins "Panem is AMERICA this is happening to YOU" by Suzanne Collins "Do I need to assemble these Molotov cocktails myself" by Suzanne Collins

If someone believes that immigrants are poison and need to be purged from America, a good housing plan will not convince them to vote for Democrats. If someone believes civil rights are vital and immigrants need to be protected, they will not be energized further by a good housing plan.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Yeah, well he should have won that Grammy he was nominated for too but fingers crossed for the cast album.

Every part of that was A+ from recognizing Helen to Mia’s work to Lea Salonga being totally pumped in the audience.

This is why we once hashtagged “go to sleep Darren” in the early 2010s. Still hasn’t aged out of it.

If y'all don't want to see Mexican flags, maybe stay away from the parts of the country we stole from Mexico

1 in 12 Americans live in California. 1 in 35 Americans live in LA County. LA is America

Well good wins in the pre show and Hwaboon made it into the cold open. So far so good #tonyawards

RFK Jr. Encourages Americans To Do Their Own Research About Dragons

Stand up to him, get rewarded. Try to placate, he'll just demand more. The way is clear

I had a joke all ready to go about Hwaboon’s missing nomination but since the ignored the actually fabulous Helen J Chen it’s seems flat. #tonynominations #maybehappyending

these people hate DEI because they would be unemployable in any system where they couldn’t rely on favoritism and nepotism

As much as I love The Pitt and that particular character have I just missed all the commentary or was casting an able bodied actor only an issue when it was an opportunity to shit on Glee?

It’s nice to know that if you’re a terrible lawyer making a terrible argument before the Supreme Court one of the judges will literally put her thumb on the scales of justice for you

I hope every moderate Catholic in this country is paying attention to what evangelicals think about them. You might be down the list, but you’re on it.

Abrego Garcia has never even been charged with a crime. Donald Trump, in contrast, has been convicted, by a jury, of 34 felonies.

At least 2 people—29 and 44 yo—have died while detained at Krome ICE prison near Miami. The facility is so overcrowded people are sleeping in the bathrooms: “Their faces are literally under the toilet.” english.elpais.com/usa/2025-04-...

can’t really be overstated how important it was that in an era where almost every single institution we have is being dragged towards fascism, one little old man devoted his life to shoving the world’s oldest institution towards more charity, grace and inclusivism.

I’d always assumed the claim that feminists “hate men and don’t actually want equality “ was simply bad faith. Now I’m thinking they just have experience with UK FARTs where male chromosomes make you evil and a vagina gives you special status

The conservative movement has turned against reality on every scientific issue of our time, from gun violence to climate change to epidemiology. If campuses are ideologically homogenous, it's not because academia has ostracized conservatives. It's because conservatives have ostracized academia.

It’s Wednesday, which is always a good day to remind you that trans people of all ages are people who deserve the same love and protection as anyone else. Fuck off TERFs. Fuck off transphobes.

Unbeatable entertainment.

There are 200 of them in the House. How about some of them worry about tariffs and some of them worry about the concentration camps and some of them worry about social security and stuff. There's enough work to go around.

I am obligated to point out that no one in the Trump administration has presented a shred of evidence this man was involved in MS 13.

Can I take a minute from the world burning down to note on my return to fandom space I was perplexed to see people are just being out in the open about their self-insert now? Like who decided "Character Doe/You" is a thing? Kids these days.

RFK Jr. recently announced he would find the cause of autism and “eliminate those exposures” in five months. His disturbing faux-certainty can leads to real harm: It shuts down questions, and isn’t science—it's pseudoscience. @johnmarble.bsky.social. at TPGA: thinkingautismguide.com/2025/04/robe...

if your moral compass can be thrown off by a broomstick and a british accent, maybe it’s time to read literally any other book. they made more, i promise. books did not stop in 2007 when voldemort exploded like a glitter bomb full of hate crimes.

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

For those of us who have zero attention span and a need to escape reality you may be happy to discover A03 looks ready to meet your Pitt needs over the next year.

There are 8 billion people on Earth, twice as many as when I was born. The eugenicists are worried about an absolute non-issue. Unless they are ACTUALLY worried about the proportion of white people reducing comparatively, which I think is the true case.

Anecdotally, fucking spot on

That "screwed the working class" line enrages me. The working class has gotten screwed, esp by the crushing of unions. But the generous financial aid of top colleges gave me and many other working class kids opportunities we would never have had otherwise.

JFC Joanne. "I'm attacking you to prove how un-oppressed you are" is some incredible mental gymnastics.

Newman’s Own stuff rules. Everything is solid quality, the pasta sauce isn’t Rao’s but it’s solidly above Prego, all the ingredients make sense, it goes to charity. This is what rich people should do. Elon is sending his sperm around or some shit and Paul Newman is helping kids from beyond the grave

And in case anyone is wondering it looks like at least one school is HD Cooke, a K-5 Elementary school. Clearly very very dangerous lol .

More of this. If I accidentally emailed a third party patron records I would be done.
