sky from last night

When I heard the mom of a trans girl say the night her daughter came out to her was the first time she'd ever seen her child happy, I knew it was a story I needed to share. These are the stories the public isn't hearing. An honor to get to report on 3 family's journeys for @teenvogue.com.

ICE will be ramping up its activity in Philadelphia, Seattle, NYC, Chicago, and Northern Virginia. Stay the fuck out of Philly!!

what i like about this is that it makes the car look evil

I do not think more training would change things one bit. Across this country you have cops taking their name tags off when working protests. Cops attacking and arresting journos. Cops doing everything they can to keep their anti-protest actions from seeing the light of day.

thinking about more fun ways to score baseball games. yeah i know it’s hard to read. but

i love going to wellsboro bc mainly the restaurant menus

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

the nickel back cover band at the mexican restaurant sounds pretty good tbh? this guy did a bunch of really accurate covers but they were all of bands ranging from creed to nickelback

cheep cheep squak squak etc. oughta be laying eggs or something

Trying and failing to come up with the right words to describe what we are witnessing unfold in LA right now. Your resistance is here, support them

Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.

To be fair it's easy to be vindicated when your commitment is "the border Gestapo are evil and should not exist" Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

never seen a pride flag like that before

my lease is up at the end of june and I need to raise money so I can actually move in somewhere overall I need enough for a deposit and first (and possibly last) months rent, plus moving costs if theres anything you can spare, it really is an emergency ¢ashapp= $ValterraBella √enmo= @VeeBeeExx

tailgating outside the kindergarten graduation

Just walked into the most upsetting room hotel setup I've ever seen

Sometimes a poem gets more true long after it was written. From Rilke’s Sonnets to Orpheus

"the heart starts to elevate as far as rate is concerned" is something the atlanta booth just said that i will be thinking about a lot

it should be illegal for my old primary care provider to send me birthday wishes via the patient care portal that generates a patient email that looks like every other medical email. also it should be illegal for them to send my birthday card four days late come on

maybe the greatest HBP in baseball history

some general advice: if you're dropping your kid off for their last day of kindergarten you can wear sunglasses so people don't see you crying

what if i just focus mostly on making coffee cake from now on. i could probably get so good at it

A female Western Gull was recorded riding 150km in a garbage truck from San Francisco to a compost facility in Central CA, probably to forage. TWICE. An innovator, an icon, a genius. This is one of my favorite @waterbirdsociety.bsky.social papers I've ever handled as managing editor #ornithology

im actually only into older RPGs you probably haven't heard of them

its so funny when they do the futuristic sports graphics of a translucent skyscraper exploding from the field with an athlete on top and then the athlete is like. relief pitcher Braydon Fisher

it's baffling how bad every commercial is now. don't people pay money to show me these?

will everyone get mad at me if i say mlbtv should send you a spotify wrapped every year

Second Life from @amandahess.bsky.social is a incredible, well-reported book on parenting, disability, surveillance, how parents drive each other crazy and are egged on by tech companies looking for a niche

oh me oh my oh look at miss ohio
