Queer. Left-handed lefty. Mom. Spouse. Perimenopausal logophile.
This is such a great book. As a despairing American, it’s one of the few things that’s grounded me this year.

Watching this be proven in real time as result after result comes in is washing away so much of the ever present despair I’ve been feeling for months.

Already seeing people excise the essential fact that trans existence was the inciting factor in the Texas A&M professor purge. Don't let them. Our lives are on the line and they want to make this solely about academic censorship.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

I think it is important to anticipate the rhetoric - and quite possibly lies - coming from right-wing media no matter what the facts turn out to be. It will be anti-left, not anti-gun. It will assert that only right-wing speech is curtailed on campus.

I encourage everyone to look out for their safety and practice good internet hygiene, of course. But some of the scolding posts I've read suggest we can change the awful aftermath of a fateful event by just holding our tongues and being quiet little mice, and that isn't my experience.

Please, please listen to me: MAGA world has a lot of money to pay "researchers" to trawl niche social media sites like this one, and take posts that will provoke enormous outrage and plaster them across multiple platforms. Please think about what you're posting before you hit "Post"

The Hortman family helped raise and train dogs to partner with veterans. One of the many reasons we will miss Melissa and Mark.

In another sermon in Matadi that year, Boelter railed against the LGBTQ community. “They're confused,” he said. “The enemy has gotten so far into their mind and their soul.”

Suspect in Minnesota Shooting Linked to Security Company, Evangelical Ministry
The alleged shooter is a 57-year-old white male; according to his ministry's website, he “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer.”

I suggest that those outside of Texas follow our politics because we seem to be ground zero for what they will try to cram down the rest of the country.

The most powerful art, okapi and golden frogs. Patton’s watch. And now something breast milk adjacent. It’s a wild journey. Zero posters, though…
