It just defies comprehension that the world's richest man is literally a hitlerian figure, got to illegally commandeer the US govt for months and condemn millions to excruciating death, and then just fucked off to make jokes about "show orphans" on podcasts with zero consequences. The mind recoils

Right when I woke up, a spider crawled over me. Seconds later, Spouse, who just left for work, called to warn me about a coyote outside. I guess Monday is looking for a fight

Please! If you haven’t read Ijeoma Oluo’s moving 2016 piece on just this, today’s a good day to do so. medium.com/the-establis...

Blind obedience does not prepare children for freedom. It teaches compliance, not critical thought. The freedom we want for children starts with what we give them now: safety, security, and space to think. Liberation begins long before adulthood.

WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/

I hope you all appreciate this photo of Virg and Pickford that I posted ahead of the derby

Borscht!

Peacock showing drone footage of a mostly-empty Etihad moments before the match is hilarious, actually

Omg omg omg Virg!!!!!!

Love this 🥰

Only Mo 🫡🇪🇬👑

You see versions of this dynamic in so many places. When you learn comfort with other people living their lives, it becomes easier to feel comfortable living yours. Knowing and loving a lot of trans people has definitely made me more confident in my own gender identity.

EVERYONE SHUT UP

The only white people bothered by anything I have ever said about white people are racists. So if you have been, congratulations for being a racist. Because other white folk listen & mind their business.

AI is for lazy ass mfs always has been

Practice this if you don’t already. Also, spend some time every day barefoot. Those receptors are crucial to balance. Also, throw your arms up over your head every once in a while. Use it or lose it absolutely applies to joints as we age

Here she is at the March on Washington wearing her Resistance medals, incredible flex

Do y’all remember when we all fell in love with Chigs and then he showed up wearing glasses and we just passed all the way out?

Good list here of nonprofit orgs to help Palestinians. If you prefer to go the mutual aid route (more & faster money into the hands of ppl who need it) the Sameer Project is a reliable & transparent central hub for fundraising linktr.ee/thesameerpro...

The new season of Is It Cake? is really bleak

“It was a racist, homophobic book-burning.” Can’t get any clearer than that

It’s a good question, let’s clear the air: 1) Disco is awesome, like 25 all-time classic tracks in a 4 year span, 2) Disco was hated because it was queer, brown, and black, 3) Disco was hated because it paired women and men in a different power dynamic. 4) “Disco Sucks” was a “ MAGA” test run.

It’s fitting that it’s a Cat Stevens track because this person’s relationship to gravity is very cat-like. I can’t wait to show my AT class this video youtu.be/E-mUGIqhvUY?...

The Sound of Music is a garbage musical. Julie Andrews was perfect. I just don’t want to hear or see it ever ever ever ever

Teacher and staff unions are incredibly important. Show support for those of us who care for, teach, enrich, and inspire future generations

I feel like there’s a Letters to Cleo joke here but I’m not quite old enough to craft it. Where’s Ben Wyatt when you need him?

Yesterday, I got to introduce an adolescent voice student to Les Mis. Like, for the first time. DO YOU UNDERSTAND??

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly: - Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat) - Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex) - Humming (stimulates vagus nerve) - Exercise (anything helps, outside even better) - Impeachment and removal

When people snarkily say, “is this Slot’s fault, too?” after an individual player mistake, I want to say YES! Slot dismantled a club ethos that had been so carefully and well crafted. The players don’t believe and why should they? So how can we?

This means meh.

At least I got up two hours before sunrise for this. That’s fun!

Singing for Mo 😍

Nonchalant animal noises This is what the internet is made for 😭😭🤣🤣

“Every Harry Potter book, movie, video game, stage show ticket, theme park pass, and piece of merchandise that’s sold puts money into Rowling’s pocket, which she can use to keep her crusade against trans people going.” www.theverge.com/report/90181...

This is excellent information!

Me, I went with a stretchy dress and zero decorum. Very on brand

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 🫡🇪🇬👑

Practicing this dance to do on AI’s grave.

Mohamed Salah has scored more goals for Liverpool than anyone has ever scored for any of Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Leeds, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Milan, Borussia Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, Napoli, Lazio, Marseille, Feyenoord, Fiorentina, Sevilla and Valencia.

And it takes me *forever* to read things because I do need to read aloud in my head and, if I don’t like the first read, I have to go back and do it again. Reading is a constant rehearsal/performance. Brains 🤷‍♀️

It’s unerring how the people who openly expressed Islamophobia since 9/11 turned out to be the very worst in almost every single way Almost like we shouldn’t normalize just a little hate, as a treat, no matter what the circumstances

if you're travelling and you are a documented citizen (esp if you're white/white-passing), you need to speak up & interrupt any racial profiling you witness. We are absolutely defeated if we allow ICE agents to harass people in the broad light of crowded airports. Don't be a good deputy citizen.

Imagine if a fucking reporter would confront him with this directly in real time

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her. Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day

Even when the fun doesn’t cost anything. It’s just control and resentment
