I actually heard the voice inside my head say "JFC, I really fucking hope so." This woman is a hero. Her ex-husband, vile. www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12...

Say what you will about this season, but the #SanFrancisco49ers are downright spoiled with RB talent.

This doctor’s letter to United Heathcare for denying nausea medication to a child on chemotherapy.

So absolutely freaking excited for this. I hope it crosses the finish line. And if it's really, I might be able to overlook that it was filmed in Portland. www.punknews.org/article/8422...

I can’t wait to see the new #QueerMovie but also I’m wigging out because I think Drew Starkey kinda maybe looks like a young Daniel Craig and the whole now feels metaversey.

I definitely did not have tsunami on my calendar for today. When I was little, I used to have frequent nightmares about tidal waves. Like Deep Impact level, wipe out the Statue Liberty type. Thought they were irrational even then, but maybe not? 🤔

Let me see if I understand. We're told—in effect—that Hegseth is a non-functional alcoholic who commits sex and financial crimes when intoxicated, and who's never sought treatment for his disease or made real amends to anyone he's harmed, but he can RUN THE MILITARY if he pinkie-swears not to drink?

FFS if I see this one more time...regressing back to crap from four years ago IS 👏 NOT 👏 CHANGE 👏. Gah! www.nytimes.com/2024/12/04/u...

Thank you, San Jose Sharks, for giving us a little light in what currently feels like a horrendous time in Bay Area sports.

I keep seeing this reference to public bathrooms as women's "private spaces" and I just do not understand it. Strangers are strangers even when they're women! We're not communing in there for hours at a time, talking about perimenopause and who's getting divorced and shaving our legs.

Rewatched Transhood last night. A+ film showcasing trans children in conservative communities. Interesting how adults with causes are out there fighting for visibility & these kids seem to seek the opposite, wanting-as all kids do-to blend in & feel like everyone else. www.hbo.com/movies/trans...

watching the shock and horror as trump’s cabinet roles are announced and thinking everyone needs to get familiar with this word

FUCK. YEAH. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

"The Democratic effort will rely on the work of hundreds of lawyers, who are being recruited to combat Trump administration policies on a range of Democratic priorities." www.nytimes.com/2024/11/16/u...

Well, at least it got that one right.

So, in this post-election pre-dystopian reality we’re living in, I’m coming to terms with a couple of new revelations in my family. One is that my oldest (17M) is - while not a Trump supporter-open to “hearing him out” and “curious to see how he does.” And that MAGA brand has some cool factor to it.

The way that Steph never gets foul calls for the physical punishment he takes is disgraceful. Grizzly straight up poked him in the eye and no foul. He’s bumped off the 3pt line and no foul. 🙄

I just want to say that my relatives in my native country look at us like, "you get vaccines for free and you...turn them down?" Which roughly translates into "what the ever-loving fuck is wrong with you???"

Do yourself a favor and read this from Fox News contributor Ben Domenech. I’d like to report a murder

First post: I'm finally here and feel like I've entered into a sanitary, disinfected space (for now). I still don't know if a mass exodus of that other platform is the answer, but but damn if it isn't nice to have a little space to breath clean air.
