to make a noun possessive, you add apostrophe-s (e.g., this thread is brooke's) possessive pronouns, on the other hand, never have an apostrophe even when they end in -s (e.g., this thread is hers) make it make sense

Dear Manager, 1. I pictured a rainbow. You held it in your hands. 2. I had flashes, but you saw the plan. 3. I wandered out in the world for years while you just stayed in your room. 4. I saw the crescent; you saw the whole of the moon.

Dear Manager, 1. I saved the birds and the bees and the cigarette trees. 2. You never change your socks. 3. I'm bound to go where there ain't no snow, where the rain don't fall, the wind don't blow 4. I quit. 5. I got a job where they hung the jerk that invented work in the big rock candy mountain.

Dear Manager, 1. I plant the seed. Sheriff John Brown say kill it before it grow (every time). 2. I started out of town, yeah? 3. I saw Sheriff John Brown aiming to shoot me down. 4. I shot the sheriff. 5. I did not shoot no deputy.

But also: my Fed wife sends an email at end-of-duty every day letting her supervisor know she’s logging out and … what she did that day. This is common across the government. He’s just so stupid and ignorant.

It’s deeply held prejudice and ignorance. My Fed wife’s not supposed to log in or even check email outside of duty hours. She can’t have any work email to her phone. Elon has no life outside of work and he expects everyone else to as well.

Grimes should send Elon this same email about their baby.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

nice post poking lots of holes in the Trump DOE's Valentines Day Dear Colleague Letter. worth a read for anyone who needs reassurance that the Trump admin lacks the power to re-write civil rights laws or end DEI in K-20 via executive fiat. educationcivilrights.com/blog/f/regul...

Marcy makes a very nice point here. If Trump asserted that Special Counsel Jack Smith—who was in charge of just two cases against basically one person—was a principal officer who required Senate confirmation, then how could Co-President Musk—who’s remaking the entire government—be anything less?

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Key thing to remember is cuts are coming where agency heads HAVE NOT BEEN CONFIRMED. Thousands of cuts across Ed, HHS (including agencies with heads waiting confirmation as well) have already happened without Congressional oversight because the people order the cuts haven’t been confirmed. Even if
