My sweet son has passed. RIP, Professor Pudding, champion of snugs and love and never-ending purrs.

Somehow I missed a call from the ER vet at 7:20 and again at 10 asking for approval for a new treatment plan because I am a bad mom and if Pudd doesn’t come home tomorrow it’s my fault.

Professor Pudding’s congestive heart failure took a sudden turn for the worse, and we spent much of the day at the vet to get the fluid out of his lungs. He is at the ER overnight. I miss my son.

I accidentally left a mark in a library book and now I KNOW I’m going to hell. 😓

As hard as starting a research nonprofit is, I would still MUCH rather be doing that than working on a PhD again. 😬 That is how hard a PhD is.

New blog post!

CANNOT RELATE AT ALL…

In other news, this is amazing. youtu.be/pHMH408ltEM?...

Lauryn Hill’s support for Kanye West is as disappointing as it is disgusting. I’m horrified that his show sold out and that he even got a venue. We do not support Nazis.

This is the contented sleep of an absolute criminal, make no mistake.

There is no excuse for supporting the new Harry Potter series, which directly funds an anti-trans millionaire who aims to do more harm. Trans lives fucking matter.

It is amazing how much praise people give my work while still refusing to hire me.

If we’re on a Zoom call talking seriously and you don’t introduce me to your pets, what are we even doing here?

Using actual lists of Jews to ‘fight antisemitism’ is like saying you’re using the KKK to fight racism.

#transrights forever! We support ALL people who menstruate, including women, men, nonbinary and genderqueer individuals, and intersex individuals.

What ICE is doing is utterly evil, and I need people to understand also what we have already been doing to our fellow citizens in prisons and jails for decades.

Watching ‘How to Get to Heaven From Belfast’ on Netflix by Lisa McGee. She specializes in writing tenacious Irish women and I fucking love it. I would watch paint dry with this woman.

It is wild that the surest way to get the US Congress to act is not the death of citizens or concentration camps but long lines at airports that they might get stuck in. 😑

Our rapist and pedophile in chief is sending violent, lawless, untrained people into airports instead of paying TSA salaries. Meanwhile, La Guardia just had a major accident and is shut down. Yup, everything is def awesome in the US.

It blows my mind every time someone tells me I’m impressive because I still get so nervous just to lead board meetings that I vaguely want to vomit, and that’s with incredibly lovely, passionate people on my side. 😓

New York prisons are claiming menstrual products are 'contraband' to deny visitation. Learn more about a new bill from @salazarsenate.bsky.social meant to address this injustice: nysfocus.com/2026/03/19/p...

Hundreds of Jews and Palestinians gathered in Tel Aviv today to protest our government’s forever war — in Lebanon, Gaza, the West Bank, and Iran. We know this isn’t normal. We know all of us deserve better. Enough.

Science has an Epstein problem. Women in paleontology say it's a symptom of a deeper misogyny. When paleontologist Riley Black learned that several scientists in her field had appeared in the Epstein files, she wasn't remotely shocked. www.cbc.ca/radio/epstei...

How to tell if the AG is actively obstructing justice against the sitting president, a rapist and pedophile:

A friend said today that 2016-2026 is like if an unsolicited dick pic was a decade, and he is extremely correct.

Re Chavez: Thread for sexual assault survivors/victims (however you see yourself is ok!) and people supporting them today. Here are some things that I think are useful. I am not an expert, just someone who has been navigating being public about my experiences, including in media interviews. 🧵

Bravery in action. G-d bless.

Y’all will do anything except vote for a woman. 😑

Last week a man driven by grief and pain attacked the biggest Reform synagogue in the US, located where my sister and her family live. I still feel very fucked up about this. Working is not going well.

March blog post is up! This time focusing on the personal experience of someone who had her period in prison. Read about how our system of ‘justice’ uses periods as a weapon.

I will never forget weeping at my computer, watching THAT scene from Sinners, feeling so deeply moved without even having the words to say why. Mr. Coogler knows how to make art that stirs the soul and feeds the heart. G-d bless.

We're horrified at reports of the attack at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, MI — the country's largest reform synagogue, with connections to our staff and community. We're sending love to our Jewish community, and we're grateful for the fast support and solidarity we've seen from our neighbors

Paralympic service doggos should get medals of their own for being such good good babies.

Grim Fandango is the greatest computer game of all time, and I will die on this hill.

I’ve started rereading all 41 books in Sir Pratchett’s Discworld series, because the world is dark. It is already helping.

Iranian civilians have gone from being slaughtered by one corrupt government to being massacred by two different corrupt governments. This is so deeply wrong.

If @schumer.senate.gov tells us to be calm and not impeach again, I’m going to scream. A rapist pedophile has attacked multiple countries to avoid accountability.

Every morning I wake up and say, ‘hi, stimky boy’ to this jerk.

If Andrew talks, Ghislane loses all utility to the regime. I hope she is terrified.

Our blog is LIVE, baby! A monthly reminder that periods in confinement are a horror, and we all deserve better.

My toxic trait is wanting to adopt EVERY CAT AND DOG. Real fact, my partner had to stop me from bringing home a 12 year old cat with a serious heart condition after Ms. Peppercorn passed. I just wanted him to have a soft ending. 😭🥺💔

Literally the only thing that could have made that #BadBunny #Superbowl performance better would have been Kendrick Lamar popping out to dunk on Drake again. Bless.

This year can get fucked. It’s NOT EVEN FEBRUARY. RIP to a legend.

I missed wishing my mother happy birthday because I learned that the Trump regime is demanding lists of Jews and had a massive, existential panic attack. How many institutions already caved to this shit? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I had a frank discussion with my therapist about what my red lines for leaving the country were, and I did not even think to mention ‘lists of Jews.’ www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

You do not shoot a man on the ground being tackled by several officers multiple times in the chest ‘defensively.’

I am slowly and begrudgingly returning to social media. And soon @prisonflowproject.bsky.social will have actual social media people!!

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."
