I'm freaking out and all that I can think to do is to just be kind to people around me because nothing else seems to make a positive difference.

What is possible will forever be at the mercy of sufficient forethought and perseverance. #showerthoughts #hope

As a child of the 80s I am still far too impressed by the latest in flashlight technology.

Today would be a wonderful day to just dissolve into the emotionally-charged negative space around unconventional yet thought-provoking architecture and elegantly fade from all human memory. #architecture #anxiety

At least difficult isn't boring. #anxiety #showerthoughts

Just a cat enjoying a vitamin-and-chicken-broth-sicle. I'm using 16 ounces of cat-safe chicken broth mixed with a vitamin C liquid supplement, an anti-hairball liquid supplement, and an anti-arthritis liquid supplement for the recipe, frozen in a silicon ice cube tray. #cat #pethealth

Perhaps time travel isn't so much impossible as it is inevitable. #timetravel #showerthoughts #remember

For too long, Wisconsin SWers & trafficking victims have been UNABLE to SEEK EMERGENCY CARE SERVICES or REPORT AN ASSAULT w/o facing ARREST. Yesterday, @ryanclancywi.bsky.social introduced LRB-3611, a bill aimed to change just that—and make Wisconsin a safer place for everyone. #lrb3611

Mini Bundt cakes have just ruined cupcakes for me. For the rest of my life, I will now look at every cupcake that crosses my path and despairingly question why it isn't a mini Bundt cake instead.

"They have slain the Earl o' Moray, And Lady Mondegreen." #mondegreen

After a wonderful birthday brunch with some of my favorite people (including the world's most adorable god-daughter), I drove to an out-of-way park and hiked the trails until I finally found a spot where all I could hear were birds, insects, wind in the leaves, and the creek.

Notes for potential genie wishes: have anyone who wages war fall asleep to the nightmares of survivors of war for as long as the war continues. #war #nightmare

Still the best fidget spinner around. There is something deeply cathartic about the lock popping open. #southord #lostroom #lockpicking #fidgetspinner

The Life of Chuck. Wow. Just... Wow.

With the way things have been lately, quietly fading away into nothing is becoming more and more appealing.

Yeah... I miss ringtones. I'm old. 😞

I know for certain that it is time for bed when I actually consider attaching the last slice of pizza to an email to keep it fresh until tomorrow. #sleepdeprivationthoughts

If companies hire primarily based on past performance, then why do people vote primarily based on promises of future performance? If a candidate is "good", shouldn't their past performance be all of the campaigning that matters? #vote #honesty

I... I am actually feeling heartbroken right now. So much of my extracurricular learning as a child came from #PBS. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

I tried so hard to not end that sentence with a preposition. Until. #showerthoughts #philosophy #grammar

I have absolutely no doubt that "voluntary" is in reference to the parents wanting the conversion therapy for their children, not the children actually wanting it. 😩 www.them.us/story/virgin...

This is to say that even as the world affords us less time to process our feelings, it becomes more important to use that time wisely. #grief

Normalize just withdrawing from society to be a mute curator at an art museum.

I think the most heartbreaking realization as an adult is that this #reality truly does not want to be friends, and now it is just super-awkward being stuck here.

It is as if I successfully trained a banana to play dead. #nonsense

The Smithsonian has issued a statement supporting Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch following President Trump's claim that he fired the director of the National Portrait Gallery. https://n.pr/4kSmaSh

No. This is not the way. www.npr.org/2025/06/09/g... #la #losangeles

LGBTQ people have the right to express ourselves however we want.

This one goes out to all the insomniacs out there tonight.

I spent the better part of my weekend trying to solve a problem only to discover that I apparently solved it in the past (and subsequently forgot about). That is a good problem to have, but I'm still salty about losing time that I could have spent solving other problems. #problemsolving

Adults' right to access porn, R-rated movies, sex education materials, and more are at stake in our case before the Supreme Court over Texas' online age-verification law. We have a First Amendment right to browse the internet without sacrificing our privacy.

You just know he's going to blow it all on squeaky toys & catnip.

Taking advantage of a long weekend, I dragged out my leather cleaning supplies and gave my trusty ten-year-old Saddleback briefcase a good saddle-soap scrub and conditioning. I expect this bag will outlive me, but I'd prefer it do so while still looking good. #saddlebackbags #buyitforlife

Well now I'll be trying to work this line into polite conversation over the next few weeks. #devilmaycry

This is, of course, subject to confirmation by those who do not exist. #existence #philosophy #ontology

Afternoon meetings are so stressful. #cat

My little cat's twelth birthday was this month, and I have genuinely tried to give her a good and loving home since I adopted her. Her trusty cat tree finally bit the dust, so I've been working on this as a replacement for her. #cat

A late #birthday present for my fluffy little friend.

My mini-review for #Sinners: God damn good film.

Most days can benefit from sharing ice cream with a cat.

It only takes a moment to show your support for Chrystul by signing and sharing her new @Change petition: chng.it/RXTYSR4bHQ #freechrystulkizer

I woke up with such a fun art project in mind, and I can't build it quickly enough.

Better yet, just invent time travel already (or again). #timetravel #accountability

This morning, the FBI arrested Milwaukee Judge Hannah Dugan for allegedly instructing an immigrant, who appeared in court on April 18, to walk into a public area when ICE agents showed up to her courtroom looking to apprehend him.

BREAKING: A Montana court extended its pause on a new anti-trans bathroom ban through May 16th, allowing transgender and intersex people in the state to continue to use the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity.

Nothing causes me more resentment for myself than not knowing how to fix a thing.

We give it names for the sake of conversation. #reality #philosophy #ontology

It is astonishing just how much more can be accomplished when trying to help instead of trying to control.

Zongoloni’s story began in heartbreak—found standing guard over her dying mother, too young to survive alone. Today, she lives wild, returning often to dote on little Lenny and Sulwe—perfect practice for her own baby, as she’s now heavily pregnant. Support Zongoloni: swt.bio/zongoloni

Honestly, why is it legal for any health care provider or health care insurer to ever be anything other than non-profit? How is there not an inherent conflict of interest when profit has any bearing on patient care? #healthcare #nonprofit
