I'm watching Hacks and that's how I found out that Google search AI thinks Hal Linden is dead. Good news: he isn't (he's 94).

Welp

IDK I think the issues are implied in the whole “Marshall’s sushi pillow” thing (But also I kind of like it?)

Y'all I minored in Spanish and have continued studying it off and on my whole life and can speak it decently okay if not fluently, and only just now, for the first time I'm pretty sure, learned the word for basketball. I knew about básquetbol but there is also baloncesto. BALONCESTO! I Iove it.

I laughed too loud alone in my home.

Once again, with the racist image, anybody else would be immediately fired from their job as dogcatcher or whatever. Or if any of my kids had shared something remotely approaching that when they were in school, their life as they knew it would’ve screeched to a halt.

I don’t know, does it feel like every single person on this website has to repost the racist image, like, can we talk about it without sharing it.

As ever, heartbroken AND furious

The Essential Toni Morrison | Veronica Chambers Her novels reveal a deeply American desire for freedom and adventure, and one of her work’s great joys lies in always finding something new to discover. Here’s where to start. www.nytimes.com/article/best...

This landscape is indescribably special to me. It's magic. I'm heartbroken.

Tonight on Criterion Channel: UNION

Looks like they’re getting some good results (higher turnout) using the Reach app to stay in touch with the people they register to vote. I worked them for a while last year, but unfortunately the organizing model was at odds with my introvert soul. I’m more of an anonymous phone banker king of gal.

“Current maps on the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) website show plans for the wall to plow through the wildlife refuge, state park and to cut off the historic chapel from public access.”

My toxic trait is I will stay up late watching Beto go live from a random Waco hotel room enthusiastically urging people to help him save democracy yet again

Tonight on Criterion Channel: Carol & Joy, the documentary about Carol Kane's 98 year old mother. Fascinating and moving, I would've watched way longer than the half hour it lasted.

Here, have a picture of a beagle in a sweater

This is my thing, yes criticize Dems and call them. But run your Republican Congress critters ragged right now. Make it impossible for them to have a moment of peace.

We don't need book reviews. What if we skywrite the best lines from our books in the air? Everybody gets one loop-de-loop in the airplane

Very important: mossy post

This is art.

Anyway, I have tickets to see Dwight Yoakam at the rodeo, I’m very excited about it.

evergreen

Why did I lol at this. It's like "Jesus better watch out, he's in trouble"

Look, I’ll be thrilled to try to help him win if he’s the nominee, but this is my truth.

“This is the defining moral issue of our time.” “I will support no funds for, nor any cooperation with, an agency as blatantly lawless as this one.” “I call on everyone in America to fight the establishment of new ICE facilities in your local community.” Come, on Charles, I could do this all day.

Discourse is cursed on here tonight I’m going to go watch my stories (home decor tutorials on YouTube)

Here’s candidate for Texas Governor @ginafortexas.bsky.social on Greg Abbott’s unconscionable private prison profiteering; let’s start talking about this and not stop.

ice is killing americans and democrats are still voting for trump's nominees

okay I'm answering annoying emails for thirty minutes....GO (feel free to join me)

Who are y’all? We know you’re out there. Just give us a little sign.

Meanwhile, in Houston

When you cave, they push harder. When you fight back, *they* cave. Do not obey in advance. Repeat after me: "Fuck you--make me."

The videos of the Singing Resistance in Minneapolis are wrecking me.

This + debauched billionaire grifting = 2026

Hang it in the Louvre

Here’s Edith Wharton predicting the rise of idiot podcasters in the early 1900s (cc: @seeshespeak.bsky.social)

Sentimentally remembering when my daughter was little and we'd watch The Voice as a family and she'd call Pharrell "Farewell"

2026 is for Mayhem. Pull up.

He understood we wanted to know about his hat and backpack. Such powerful symbols of a childhood interrupted.

Get in, losers, we’re flipping Texas.

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win. Not because the Democratic Party is salvation, but because the ability to shift — and to do so under the immense weight of fear and ruling class control — is proof we are still alive.

the hell you say!

Not me adding a Rehmet column to my @deck.blue looking for signs of life & whether we might be able to win some shit come November

The crazy part here. Also I was getting calls and texts from volunteers for Rehmet up until this afternoon. As I frequently point out, Democrats who write off Texas and the south are wrong (on multiple levels).

Ok y'all. Whats going on is making me cry on the regular. It feels weird to be here at the GRAMMYs - but I want to honor the music of my ancestors by playing it- we gonna do some busking tomorrow, come say hello if you’re in town for the shindig.

prayers allllll the way up for this one

it's Saturday night and I'm drinking a mocktail and writing some ish for a website for free and I feel pretty happy about it idc

lol @ “had half siblings” but basically yeah

same vibe

Liam better get his fucking hat back, you fuckers.
