I wish every song made me feel as alive as The Devil Went Down to Georgia does

This is so beautiful

this is why I can never log off

just got this year’s Therapy Wrapped. I talked about my mom for 1000 minutes

Stay safe out there y'all

GLORY TO THE GREAT KHAN

In 2013, a classmate told me to just eat the collagen joints too when eating chicken wings, and you’ll never need a collagen supplement when you’re old. It looks like she was on the right track about collagen supplements being a scam!

Wisdom update! Her mate is back, too! Wisdom is *at least* 75 years old, the oldest living wild bird that we know of. Birds are amazing! #birds #albatross #conservation

underappreciated how many people *lost the ability to read* things of any length after the 2016 election. Including me! It took a couple years for me to stop feeling like my brain was tearing itself apart in anything approaching silence … and not because anything “got better”

I just received my first “let’s circle back in January” of the year. The holiday season has officially begun!!

having exactly (1) day out of the year where every amateur chef in America attempts to cook a giant bird and not fuck it up is, honestly, a wonderful and hilarious tradition

I wrote this piece because I only learned about pelvic floors a few years ago, despite having had one all my life. And then it turned out to be where I store all my issues. And then that turned out to be true for a lot of people www.wired.com/story/the-pe...

Personally, I think the idea that all women should be measured by the failures of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is actually a sort of sexist doomerism.

Common Ground is hosting a pop-up art market and opening gallery reception for Artists of Marm, a group of seven local artists, on November 19th.

Being home sick is frustrating, but at least Cheese feels energetic 😻

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Tonight's most random, cool piece of election trivia.

i don’t like him, but, man, turning down $10M in favor of haterdom is an all-time, world-class, heavyweight champion hater move

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name. The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

You have to survive. There are graves to piss on that haven't been dug yet.

Gentlemen: thank you for your service.

Dendrites, acrylic on canvas I wanted to imagine all the tiny dendrites trying to reach each other and finding light when they do. But the negative space is really making me think about follicles and a little ovum nestled in there... maybe I'll work on a follow-up piece?

If we are cool with Zohran, the Republicans will smear us as socialists! Unlike what they're doing now: smearing us as socialists.

A couple thousand years? Its been at least 150,000 years. Homo sapiens have been leveraging our collective strengths to lead to better outcomes for everyone for the entire existence of our species. Its literally what we evolved to do.

Life has been busy! New home, planning for the future, and trying to keep the groundhogs away from the vegetable garden. But the good news is that Cheese has absolutely taken to the new place as if we bought it just for him 😅

It’s wild seeing folks on social media learning about export controls today

Introduce yourself in 4 movies Hard to pick a top 4 (or top 8) so there’s a recency bias!

I usually take my allotted wfh days, but is is really nice to have the quiet office option when I need it 😁 I haven’t developed a mega chair yet through

I actually trademarked “threepeat” after my 3rd pap smear without crying but no one throws confetti for me

Glory to the Great Khan, no mercy to our foes
