Pretty often, when I encounter an overwhelming number of choices, I end up buying nothing at all

Being mainline protestant is sick cause evangelicals think you‘re an enemy of God and everyone else thinks youre evangelical.

This is a really good thread. In my town kids die or get injured in farm accidents and the community says "he tragically died doing what he loved." With gun-related deaths/injuries, it's "the parents have been through enough, why make it worse for them."

I graduated from Texas Tech. While there, I wrote papers on Robert Mapplethorpe, and queerness in the Evangelical church. I created World AIDS day programming for the campus radio station. Like the hockey coach says on LETTERKENNY: fucking embarrassing. www.erininthemorning.com/p/texas-tech...

To be fair, I'd get drowsy listening to that boring bunch of fellas.

Did something happen overnight? Gas jumped (another) 20 cents

AI is Jesus, but also the Wizard of Oz and a 16 year old that can barely read

After Georgia and Baylor the lesson for colleges seems to be "if you have a TPUSA event no one will show up and both sides will be mad at you." www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

I really hate this trend of talking about "cooking" as "how I pay my half of the mortgage"

Sound advice!

Irises are my absolute favorite and these are going to be stunning #gardening #bloomscrolling

"Is there downside risk to expanding the Court? Yes. But there’s at least as much downside risk to doing nothing."

Until you're dead every coach is a life coach

it is kinda funny and bleak that "girlbosses" are always blamed for declining marriage rates when women with college degrees have the highest rate of marriage than any other group. The "problem" is working class men lmfao.

She’s running

This looks good!

"Concerns" is one word, some others might be "anger" or "unconstitutional"

I actually don't love gerrymandering ever and kind of wish things weren't going this direction. But listen. The Republicans shouldn't have fucked around. Now they're finding out

The thing about Amazon is you do not need to shop there. Other places will sell you pet treats, khaki pants, and eyedrops

Republicans all the time

Shameful and heart-breaking

“When it comes to boys, it’s boring” ~ my 3-yo child shares what she learned at daycare today

My best sports snack idea was for the Washington Redskins to retain their name but change the mascot to the potato. Then, they could serve mashed potatoes in a little red football helmet at the stadium.

Fuck all the way off with this kind of bullshit. Forever. Eat watermelon. All of the watermelon. Enjoy your fucking life.

"AI is 2000s autotune" -- I've never identified with something so deeply

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATHER

A colleague wrote a review of my book that is unbelievably kind and perceptive. I most of all love this point from the conclusion:

Sure, Trump started the Iran war But he’s ended it at least six times. Give the man a prize…

We're talking about the 25th Amendment in my Discourse & Democracy class today! I'm going to start the class by dodging any current events and instead watching the West Wing together: youtu.be/0Xf02i8JLMs?...

"Higher education is clearly broken, but not for the reasons you may hear from pundits and talking heads." On the troubled state of American universities: https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/disaster-capitalism-higher-education-administrators-college-departments-closure/

Evangelical pastors support Trump because he lets them use the government to play celebrity and create content (tho apparently not in this case)

Why wouldn't you want to fund this, and stop people from dying painful, premature deaths?

I don’t recommend having kids unless you’re ready for scenes like this

I ran a 5k this morning! there were trombones!

Did Hegseth fire the people who handle food logistics to reallocate that $$ to "lethality"?

If everyone got a receipt for their taxes breaking it down like this, I think our country would look totally different

Without saying your age post your favorite movie from the year you turned 18

What a week of rich data! Yesterday, PRRI released its religious census data, which showed, overall, a pretty stagnant picture of religious identification and disaffiliation. Except, among women under 30. @bmietana.bsky.social did a great job summarizing the survey. religionnews.com/2026/04/15/s...

It's Kamala's fault. It's Hillary's fault. It's my ex's fault. It's my Ms. boss's fault. It's my mommy's fault. It's Eve's fault.

Someday I'm going to write my book about things Christians think are in the Bible but actually aren't.

From @jaymallow.bsky.social newsletter -- as always, such a smart take on evangelical culture

Here is an easy solution: Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves. Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled. Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.

"Delayed motherhood" = not getting pregnant* as a teenager "Career-first culture" = being able to support a baby before you have one "The lie that kids are a burden" = ymmv
