🤣 Justice for Baroness Schraeder In case you need a laugh.

Which Tiny Desk made an audio engineer question everything? Which one made a producer want to cry? Touch grass? Look back on the year in Tiny Desk, with the people who make them.

The next step, begun in the regime’s first term, in dismantling the USPS to cheat in elections. Do not wait to fill out your ballot. Better yet, use a dropbox.

"There's something wrong with me, and I don't want to make it right". The right kind of wrong.

Life is already hard, and I don't want to be around people who make it even harder. I need people who feel like home, who bring comfort, calm and a sense of peace. That's the kind of energy I need in my life.

My sister knows me. 😁 Tacos are a love language.

There seems to be no bottom.

Beautiful day!! Navarre Pier

“My dream isn't for my daughter to make me proud. It's for her to make herself proud in a room I've never been in, doing things I never dared to try, with a voice that never flinches.” 🫶🏼

“I heard someone refer to a person who likes multiple genres of music as "Polyjamorous" and that is how I'll be identifying from now on.

My turn. 😴

My daughter thinks he probably lied to Kevin anyhow - like he does all the time.

Got up super early to fill the stockings. 😴 How long before she wakes up and pulls me out of bed? 😆

Just thinking that we would be living in a different world if Biden had selected Sally Q. Yates to be the Attorney General.

As you see what the new owner of CBS/Paramount Larry Ellison is doing to 60 Minutes and CBS News, please understand he is planning to do that to Tik Tok as a new owner and what he will do to CNN if can close deal to buy that network. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/bari-weiss...

thedreydossier.substack.com/p/trump-isnt... 🤔 Now THIS sounds like what is really happening when you think about it. Lies about everything else.

I’m making a cookbook for my daughter to go back and find the recipes we always use. My Mom passed away back in 2012 and it has been hard to figure out which recipes she used. The kitchen is a great place to use all the math skills. 😊

Impeach Trump, now!

I'm super excited! I live 1000+ miles from my Iowa fam and 4 of them are arriving tonight to stay for a week! The weather is gong to be Perfect! (I may burst out of my skin... It could just be the adderall)

"Mom, I want you to make a Yule Log". "How do you know about Yule Logs?" "Christmas around the world at school." "You're getting homeschooled from now on". ( in my head) I can just give her Little Debbie Swiss Rolls, right? I'll delegate this to her older cousins.

We MUST end them. We WILL end them. For ourselves, for our country, and for the rest of the world.

State media (CBS) won’t run the story about CECOT, so here’s one from PBS and ProPublica. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lku5...

Yetu is an entirely wild elephant – born to ex-orphan Yatta in 2012. vYet she keeps coming to show us her babies. On 7th December, she did it again – this time with a brand new daughter. Her name is Yasmin. And just like that, Yatta is a grandmother twice over: www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.o...

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers. An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers. @jimmy-iupat.bsky.social

The month I turn the big 5-0! 🙏🏼 Dear Santa ….

This and only this! What a great thing to spend your riches on. 🙏

Every time I do laundry I think to myself : Is “Less Dry” the same s more wet? 🤔

When all children receive a high quality education that develops their critical thinking and problem solving skills poverty, hunger, and slavery will no longer affect millions. Education gives hope, confidence and curiosity. And that breaks the cycle of powerlessness that leads to suffering.

"A lot of people that ban books do not read the books they ban, or they hear about [them] and get frightened. And they need to understand that books are good medicine. And if this isn't your prescription, you just put it back on the shelf for someone who needs it." - Sandra Cisneros

A photo in a book I co-wrote, “Aftershock,” about the last days of World War II, shows destitute Germans picking through mud to gather coffee beans discarded along a street. I think it illustrates the legacy of authoritarianism: poverty and misery. Americans would be wise to remember that now.

Friend: Nikki, what is wrong with you?? You see a bear and you open the door? Me: The most dangerous animals in Florida are Men. Also, I had my Swiffer mop at the ready. 😝

Random: After my daughter was born, I attempted to replace all curse words with “Walter Cronkite”.

😖😡 Take them all down. How do the people blacking this shit out sleep at night.

Outdated laws give presidents sweeping power to use the military at home to suppress protests and make mass arrests in times of war and domestic upheaval. bit.ly/4oxXJLN

My law firm is litigating 75 voting and election cases in 39 states. This is an extraordinary number that reflects the scope of the GOP's attacks on free and fair elections and serves as a warning of how hard the fight ahead will be.

The thread. 🧵

But wait, there's more..
