That thing I do where I'm at the grocery store, remember that I need mustard, buy mustard, get home, realize I bought some last time, try to remember for next time but I don't and buy more anyway? Now it's teabags. I have enough Twining's Sweet Dreams and Wild Berries to last me until spring 😂🫖☕🫖☕🫖☕

Ugh, it's new roof day. 8 hrs of stress and noise. Good times.

Where is all the government hand wringing and the law enforcement sadness and contemplation when our kids are shot at school, or our neighbors are shot at the grocery store? Where??

History is easy when you just make up your own.

If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency needs to end.

Paper maps for the win!! Next time someone laughs at me when they open my glovebox and find my maps (that's what gps is for, I just use an app, you're so old school) I'm going to remind them of this. Technology is great until it's used against you. This was a tragedy averted.

Voting should be easier than buying guns.

I have not been influenced by any of these children

This may be my most popular Bluesky post to date, so now I'm thinking tshirt ideas My Little Pogna Stay gold Pogna boy The Pogna Express

Cannoli is a breakfast food, right?

If Americans loved America and being American as much as Canadians love Canada and being Canadian, the world would be a much better place

I don't have a dog to enroll but I know there are a lot of dog owners out there

🧵 It has been 6 months since Diane suddenly passed away. I know I have been absent. Most of you know I’ve struggled with my mental health + profound grief. Without steady online content donations have evaporated almost entirely. 1.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it. They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory. Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human. Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.

the sieg heils are coming from inside the house

If Republicans really think that our rights are God-given, why do they keep trying to take them away from us???

🧵It is hard to overstate what an iron grip the ruling class has here. Mass protests have been ineffective. Corporate consolidation of the media, and a decades-long campaign to divide us, have made sure of that. Services that our government should be providing have been outsourced to our…

Father's Day #25 without my dad. I miss the look on his face when he opened the dumbest card I could find. Every year I tried to outdo the last one & he'd decide whether I succeeded or needed to try harder next time. I got such joy out of shopping for those cards. Happy Father's Day Bluesky Dads

I do not believe in the four horsemen, but I confess at this moment all I can hear are approaching hooves.

Frankenstein was the doctor. The monster is you. It has always been you.

Critique is for tomorrow. Today is for laughing.

Hey. What’d we miss?

What if putting the stupidest people in charge was a mistake?

NO MORE BILLIONAIRES

Why is every country 50% morons

🚨THIS JUST IN: Joe Biden, still old! 🚨

They didn’t pass a budget—they pulled off a heist. While we were asleep, they gave handouts to billionaires and screwed everyone else.

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

Maybe Biden was just pretending not to know Clooney because Clooney is a giant asshole. I would have done the same

Every day it gets a little worse… the idea is to break the spirit of Americans so we become fatigued and submit

Was not expecting to be crying 20 minutes into The Last of Us tonight, but here we are

I really hope our friends in 🇨🇦 and 🇦🇺, who are currently patting themselves on the back for voting against the slide toward their own versions of maga, take real action and put some strong guardrails in place. You all are where we were in 2020. We felt great then, too. Look where we are now.

My annual Earth Day post. Seems really important this year.

American Concentration Camps open.substack.com/pub/chrished...

Calling people "terrorist" and "gang members" without any proof to justify people being snatched is fascist. Every freedom-loving American should be standing against this, regardless of party affiliation.

90 days isn't going to undo much of what has already been set in motion. Canadians and Europeans aren't going to change their opinions of him. They're imposing their own personal restrictions on their interactions with US, the whims of an idiot won't change that. We're politically untrustworthy

oooohhhhhh he’s going to eliminate income tax by eliminating income

The left has got to stop scolding each other long enough to unify as a force that understands this is a madness without a bottom and start chaining hands to keep everything from falling in. It has become a party of nitpickers scoring imaginary points in a game only hall monitors pay attention to.

Some of us will not be able to afford luxuries. And some of us will not be able to afford necessities. But none of us can afford to believe that we will be fine.

I appreciate that Jeffrey Goldberg did not sit on this news for a book that he writes two years from now

If your feed is becoming doomier & gloomier by the day, I say FOLLOW MORE CANADIANS, ICELANDERS, FINNS. They're happier than us, their feeds prove it. Also GARDENERS, PHOTOGRAPHERS, BIRDERS. KNITTERS ffs. Add more beauty. No need to follow every blue account, especially if they don't add value.

It's simple: don't mock disabilities, don't mock sexuality, don't mock appearances. If you avoid these things and focus on what matters--the actions and rhetoric of Republicans--you'll never need to worry about being in hot water and having to justify why ableism is okay when you do it. /thread

"I don't recall" is doing a lot of heavy lifting today

Obviously the reason eggs are in short supply in the US, is because all the chickens are in Congress.

American exceptionalism is the bill of goods they sold you so that you wouldn't realize that other countries give workers rights, reasonable minimum wages, and health care that isn't job dependent.

For the record, I didn’t fuck around and I am nevertheless being made to find out.
