Struggling in general to be honest. Finishing the second season of Severance is the only thing sustaining me at the moment.

The finale was amazing, completely delivered on all fronts. If anyone involved in making the show is reading this, thank you. Mark Scout somehow manages to be both the most beautifully loyal man on the planet and the most frustratingly audacious motherfucker on the planet. What a guy. #severance

Dan Erickson and Ben Stiller should pay for the therapy I’ll need after watching the MDR team fall apart in every possible way #severance P.S. Fuck you Jame Eagan, I hope Helly beats the shit out of you next week

Ohio voters cannot not worsen the conditions of their state, even if their livelihoods may depend on it.

Stephen Colbert complaining about how Democrats aren’t doing shit during his monologue but then not bringing this up while he interviewed Pete Buttigieg, arguably one of the biggest figures in the Democratic Party right now, proves media types like him are as useless as Democrats themselves.

I’d like to think I flirt as well as Helly R. but deep down I know my game is as atrocious as Helena “come meet my dad” Eagan #severance

Ohio Senate Bill 1 would ban diversity and inclusion efforts at the state’s public colleges and universities, prevent faculty from striking, set rules around classroom discussion, and put diversity scholarships at risk, among other things.

Following Ben Stiller for #Severance crumbs but intermittently seeing his basketball commentary that I don’t understand is a burden I’m willing to take on. Maybe I’ll end up a Knicks fan. Please can Friday come sooner.

My op-ed yesterday in the Columbus Dispatch against SB1. Please read and circulate. And write your own op-ed’s. And get ready for opponent testimony, probably next week. Keep an eye on @osuaaup.bsky.social www.dispatch.com/story/opinio...

Goddamn was that interception beautiful.

The fact that the newly elected DNC chairman #KenMartin thinks branding was the main problem with the Dems campaign is depressing. The fact that Pelosi and Schumer endorsed his opponent, however? Great sign. Here’s to hoping they fund more campaigns focused on economic populism.

Even if TikTok comes back, it’ll constantly be on thin ice because Trump gets to decide whether to enforce the ban or not whenever he wants. The app as everyone knew it is gone. Thanks, Zuck. P.S. Fuck Citizens United

Waiting for the think pieces scolding Americans for downloading #RedNote to drop. Can’t wait for MSM pundits to pretend they don’t know why people resent the US govt so strongly they’re willing to download an app with the same foreign background that #TikTok has. Should be a fun time!

So interested to see which social media apps young people flock to after #TikTok is banned in the US. Praying it’s not a Meta app so that all that lobbying money Zuckerberg spent will have been for fuck all.

Watching people dissect the presidential interactions at Jimmy Carter’s funeral like they’re K-pop fancams is genuinely hilarious.

Really disappointed in myself for believing all the drivel boosted by Baldoni’s PR team. Finally smart enough to know I’m dumb enough to be manipulated by them. #BlakeLively is clearly an imperfect victim — but she’s still a victim. Hope anyone who was interested in this drama gives it a read.
