Hearing Kojo say "this is the *politics* hour!" when the discussion devolved to the Heidelberg Pastry Shop in Arlington was a perfect small moment

Some of the biggest ways you can rebel in this new timeline? Do not cave emotionally. Do not hate who they want you to hate. Do not tap out on emotional and intellectual curiosity. Do not stop your healing work. This all sounds counterintuitive because trauma coping skills are useful now.

Also facts.

Facts.

I’ve watched enough Invincible to now be convinced that the only way to make sure someone really is dead is to rip their head off This show might be slightly violent

Um but so, *why* must we suffer hardship?

He’s always been a real one. More backbone than…almost everyone these days

If you want access to queer books and audio books, you can request a library card from the Queer Liberation Library and use it in Libby. https://www.queerliberationlibrary.org/

What’s that about not normalizing calling the NYT out for the utterly pathetic bullshit they print? Once more: the NYT is a shadow of what it used to be. It’s NOT the paper of record. It’s no longer a reliable source

When I thought I was going to go down the phd route, I wanted to focus on early modern photography, and on seeing photos as “pictures”, as art

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

Every day it seems like another person I know casually admits to using ChatGPT for something and I feel like I’m losing my grip. Was it really that hard to Google things?

I have to drive out to the burbs to get my meds. Which is difficult, logistically, to organize with my work schedule Had to see a doc out there. Scheduled the appointment for when meds would need picking up. Go, me! Just unpacked bag. Filled the wrong dosage. Not sure if on doc or pharmacy 🙁

Genius

Lol this sign "Do not bring food into the library Food residue will attract mice Mice will acquire knowledge in the library Get into university Then replace you" 😂

Well this is big

AOC has them sputtering mad because she’s educating people on constitutional rights. You don’t see them freaking out at Jeffries for talking about egg prices.

Sitting in the waiting room of a doctors office. This is the soundtrack That’s funny, right? (I’m just here for labs, friends, not sick)
