I've been finishing off my homemade grenadine (well worth the effort; it's dead simple and keeps forever in the freezer) and pouring a bit into a tangerine sparkling water is so good.

the mRNA vaccines are an absolute miracle of science that saved millions of lives and we're going to throw the entire technology out because they could not vaccinate society against putting the worst and most ignorant people alive in charge of our medical system

I feel like most of my followers know this but because I see a lot of cis folks who have a specific blind spot for it: This includes the theme park. I don't care if you want Butterbeer or want to get a wand or are already there so why not just walk in. It's all Her. Everything with the name is Her.

they want to kill a four-year-old just because they can. you don't have to be a parent of a four-year-old (though I am) to be absolutely horrified by this and to know that four-year-olds are incredibly sweet, dynamic and aware of what's going on around them.

I appreciate the people who want to say things like "singular they has been used since the 1400s" in support of nonbinary people but when I, a nonbinary language nerd, am trying to find information on the first attested usage of truly nonbinary they, it gets annoying quickly.

ok I feel completely insane asking this but like weren't we NOT blowing up rockets, like, 50 years ago. weren't we successfully sending rockets up that did not rattle apart. also weren't we like "ah yeah that was a fail" when the rocket fell apart instead of calling it a "partial success"

I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

When Americans raised concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine views, he said he was "not gonna take away vaccines from anybody." But now he's taking them away from millions of mommas and babies. Vaccine recommendations should be based on science, not RFK Jr.'s political agenda.

A thing about growing up poor, or even middle class in America, is that there comes a time when you look back on bad memories or traumatic experiences you saw and realize how many of them had something to do with a lack of money

perfect microcosm of this entire debate: 1) cis ppl convinced GAC is harmful, call for more research, 2) research comes back showing GAC is safe and saves lives, 3) cis ppl ban GAC anyway...

I know I’ve been harping a bit on this, but a journalistic institution that would defend a patently absurd and racist claim such as “Chinese women have small fingers” rather than simply admit error and correct is fundamentally unwell.
