Well, if it isn't my buddy, Alicia!

Not to be a Karen or anything but could we get some fucking rules around here lol

I feel like getting the dudes who demand government issued girlfriends out of the gene pool might be one of those problems that solves itself

Look at how my mayor’s office is flagging my emails!!

Springfield (eating the dogs / cats) Ohio desperately needs your help with ICE. Ohio Gov Mike DeWine said it will be “the next Minneapolis” as 15,000 Haitians (1/4th of the entire city) will have their TPS status prematurely revoked Weds Feb 4th. Here are links to donate and volunteer directly: 1/

Oh, this looks rad! A couple were already on my TBR, so I bought the whole list.

I have listened to this, then bought the ebook, sent the link to my dad today (probably not for the first time, actually), and recommended it to one of my classes last week. It’s a really straightforward and well-written overview of how we got here, sigh.

if the groundhog pops its head out and doesn't get tear-gassed, the United States gets six more weeks of democracy

Today, I learned that Limoges did a series of Bayeux Tapestry dish ware and now that I know this, I want a piece or three more than anything in the world.

This is who runs this account:

Gasped at some of the Epstein stuff and then had to explain to my kids, and the 7YO was immediately like, “I bet he was Donald Trump’s friend!”

It me.

Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college: 1. STDs: the Biology, the History, the Misery 2. Meteorites: Impacts in Space and Time 3. New Testament Origins 4. Post-Soviet Politics 5. Poetry through Performance

@cworeds.bsky.social, spotted your wife!

Grateful that if I HAVE to be sick (I have a cold), it’s during a week my whole life is shut down for the weather and that I did laundry when I was feeling better, so my bed is extra nice and cozy.

Given the weather, the snow days, and my head cold, it is time to bring out the big guns* to get through the day. *The six volume DVD set of Northern Exposure

THIS. I have a pet theory that this is particularly difficult for Boomers to understand (since almost all the media they consumed growing up WAS edited), but media illiteracy can come for us all.

10YO is spending her snow days trying to report every sexist video on YouTube, so 1. the kids are alright and 2. the kids are exhausting.

It is with great joy that I announce that that Perfect Strangers is still as delightful as ever.

I bought this and it is so, so lovely!

Clutch purchase this semester for my office. This, plus the stack of DVDs from my library (and personal collection!), will be my saving grace these very snowy days.

Relieved that my school has cancelled classes for tomorrow because even though it might have been possible to get there, I just did not want to try? Though I can make that call myself, not having to is also a relief.

Five concerts you’ve seen with women lead singers: Garbage Mates of State Carole King Janelle Monáe Bif Naked

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

There are many worse things, but pilling a cat (even the most laidback one who has been receiving twice daily insulin injections for more than a year) is not for the faint of heart.

i don’t think it’s appropriate that old people are my age

I found a couple more "Do Not Obey In Advance" stickers! So if you tried to order them on backorder a few days ago, you can try again! They were literally buried underneath a bunch of papers! www.emilyk.art/product/do-n...

Look for the helpers

OMG (complimentary)!

In Ohio, you legally have to give your name, address, and date of birth. You aren't required to show ID unless driving. You have the right to clearly state, "I choose to remain silent," followed by silence. You have the right to ask if you're being detained or if you're free to go.

This thread, though…🥹

what a legend lmao

I simply cannot and will not learn about a new education app/feature/program the college wants me to use. I am returning to paper and handouts and phone calls. Do it again and I'm going to find a physical slide library, I mean it.

This is how I found out, and it feels right.

Welcome to my lectures. I also ruin parties and museum trips for free!

“Hello, yes, I would also like to learn what matters in art history!”

Reminder that “Say her name” was developed specifically to call attention to murders of Black women

Things are awful, but I spent my evening holding a four day old baby and telling his mom how loved she was while my husband helped hers fix their furnace, and I think that’s how we get through the awful.

Everyone else in our house is caught up, and finally today I made it to get my Covid booster (local CVS had Novavax!) and flu shot. Peep that frog of righteousness in the background, too (thanks to @museum.of.emilyk.art)!

I'll just quit a game when I'm stuck as god intended

My FAVORITE game from my youth (which I still have for GameBoy which still works), but today I learned I could buy it on for Switch AND I DID. The music is still a bop, too.

overthrowing govs, sending people to detention facilities for torture, cutting taxes for the rich, slashing social spending for the poor, increasing military spending, promoting christian nationalism, demonizing gays, surveilling citizens under "national security." same old GOP.
