Brilliant.

Amazon, please stop asking me if books I bought month ago met my expectations. I still have unread books I bought in 2012. Be real.

Happy 40th birthday to Bill Waterson’s ‘Calvin and Hobbes’. A work of consummate, stubborn, human, and more-than-human art.

15/10 for @weratedogs.com. One of the lights of the internet these days and doing incredible work for our 4-legged friends irl too. 💛💛💛

If poor people shouldn’t be allowed to buy junk food with food stamps then rich people shouldn’t be able to buy politicians.

100% this.

just so we’re all clear on the why

“It’s sort of like, my worst fears realized, to be frank," a women's studies scholar at Ohio University told Jezebel of the East Wing demolition. www.jezebel.com/trump-bulldo...

Every day there is a new biggest corruption scandal in the history of the United States

More grace for a grown man getting a Nazi tattoo than Black kids in public spaces. It’s obscene.

I miss when these kinds of things were the bulk of internet scrolling. Fun thread about one of my favorite magazines.

I would laugh if this wasn't so true 😭

By our count, Donald Trump and his administration committed forty-nine more atrocities last month. www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/sep...

The deportation order is based on Vedam’s conviction for murder—a crime he did not actually commit and for which he’s now been wholly exonerated. He entered the US at 9 months old and was a legal permanent resident before his conviction. We are so, so, so far from the light of justice.

A heartwarming animal magic story perfect for Sunday.

We’ve been putting the tomatoes and peppers baby plants outside during the day and Pekoe is obsessed with taking up the space left by them.

Mandatory rewatch every time it crosses a feed. 😍

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!
