My father survived a year with pancreatic cancer but it was a year of terrible suffering. This is very encouraging news. www.nbcnews.com/health/cance...

I don’t think a lot folks understand how massive Péter Magyar’s election was today in Hungary over Viktor Orbán. It was a massive 33% swing in votes. That’s insane. That would be like a Democratic supermajority being created in Congress overnight. Holy shit.

“Trump’s former spiritual advisor released from jail after serving just 6 months for molesting a 12 year-old girl.”

A U.S. Army staff sergeant and his wife arrived at his base in Louisiana last week, ready to start their new life together. Instead, ICE detained her. She was brought to the U.S. as a toddler. People like her should be citizens, not treated like criminals.

Because nothing says “support our troops" like having ICE detain their law-abiding wives.

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

I also feel this way at the end of the book. Sometimes it jumps to rating the book when I want to read the acknowledgements

Do not mess with Dawn Staley, y’all. #gogamecocks

BALDWIN!!! #braves

Pulitzer-worthy

FINALLY.

“The novel has created a buzz among their old college friends, now in their 60s, about what’s fiction and what’s not. But what’s unquestionably real is the unusual male friendship that King portrays in Heart the Lover.” Moving this one up on my list!

You love to see it. Slop is anti art and doesn't deserve to be published.

Do we get to choose who goes??

Technology is hard.

“Can we pray for the moms as well? Or just the babies?” Allie Phillips bravely told a pro-FAILED abortion death penalty bill group her story of fleeing Tennessee for a life-saving abortion Men tried to intimidate/stop her. She persisted: www.instagram.com/reel/DVuUJfm...

“It isn’t that I’m more afraid of public speaking than death; it is that public speaking feels like it could cause my death. But I do it every month because I am a high school librarian in the state of Texas in times such as these.” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @la-cac.org www.texasobserver.org/abilene-isd-...

Who at Grammarly thought this was a winning idea?

Lieutenant Flynn on The Closer is the absolute worst.

Sounds amazing!

Wow

Apart from the moral repugnance, this is so revealing of how ignorant conservatives are about poverty. Poor people have to think about money ALL THE TIME. They worry constantly about what everything costs, how to substitute one purchase for another, what bill can be put off until payday, etc.

“The works made me think about the limits of mass reproduction—simulating an image or style for the sake of simulation, as artificial technologies do now—and how that falls short, not only because the results lack imagination but also because they lack effort. “ Well done, @eddysarah.bsky.social !

WATCH — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Every dollar we spend bombing people in the Middle East is one we’re not spending here at home. We’re always told we don’t have enough money for schools or healthcare or for veterans, but there’s always enough to bomb people on the other side of the world.”

"I wrote a series of entries in a journal to our two sons, who were then very young. I recorded the thoughts of a soldier, hoping to explain to them what I was doing, thinking, and feeling." That became this book:

The waterfall in our basement is back. If you are a UK editor, please buy The Murder At The End Of This Book so that I can fix it.

A hard seltzer, some highlighters, a good pen, and a new planner is a good night in.

I recall receiving an email from an aggrieved reader about the poor grammar in one of the books we published. I asked the reader to be more specific than "poor grammar," and I got an earful about sentences beginning with "And" or "But" or concluding with prepositions. Prepositions like... is.

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times. I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

My therapist shows me this and tells me even Frog knows how to set boundaries

“The first tech-driven publishing platform.” I have not stopped laughing.

I cannot express how happy I am that the middle school basketball season is over.

loved every second of Bad Bunny. That message of inclusion and a celebration of cultures like Puerto Rico’s is just what America needs right now. Plus, his music just gets you in motion. 10/10

🚨PSA: we dodged a bullet this morning. We had a small electrical fire in our dryer. I empty our lint traps and clean out the vents religiously. The fire started underneath the drum. Take off the front panel and check for accumulated lint! 🚨

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.

My therapist: Why don’t you try keeping a list of things you can do in times of stress that will keep you from spiraling. Me: *spiraling* what if I write down the wrong things??

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.
