Northern Lights Alert: 10 States In Line For Aurora Thursday Night

It wasn't "cancel culture" when women and people of color got used up, silenced, and dismissed before their careers even began. It only became "cancel culture" when powerful abusers started having established careers momentarily inconvenienced by revelations of what they'd done.

US Senators ARE NOT police. They do not have qualified immunity. They have zero authority to assault a protesting US Marine Corps Veteran. He broke the vets hand in a door, you can hear the bones crack. Call your Senators. 202-224-3121

Tell me a random fact about yourself that sounds fake but is 100% true: I'm 3. I notice something's off and ask Mom where Dad went. "He went to live with God, Annie." "Oh." Later in the day I'm watching her do laundry, the penny drops, and I start screaming and screaming.

She’s so beautiful, and so cool too! 🌹Happy birthday to the Black Stones lead singer, Nana Osaki 🎙️

It's World Book Day, so here's some money, go read a Star War.

I try to preach the opposite of imposter syndrome to creative people. Know that you are literally the only person on the planet equipped to tell the very specific stories you have to tell in the way only you can tell them.

"Do not forget it, i can remove you from this transaction" goes so hard

Whatever was going on, there was nothing I could do about it now, and that just made me more furious. So I watched five minutes of episode 174 of Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon. Did that work? No, no, it didn’t.

which means people still can't leave their homes to work and go to school, we're facing a massive eviction crisis, but mayor frey doesn't seem to think that's his problem.
