Not to knock anybody’s skills, and I haven’t seen the movie, but based on Substance’s win for hair and makeup, am I to assume that making Demi beautiful is somehow harder than making Cynthia green, or Bill a vampire? Cause that seems… unlikely.

Just saw a kid in a dark graphic tee with a floral maxi skirt and Birkenstock clogs, and the whole vibe was exactly what my introverted teenage self dreamed about but didn’t know how to put together in the 90s.

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

And as a corollary, it would be really nice if reviewers didn’t keep calling adult books written by women YA. I lost count of the times NETTLE & BONE got described as YA. The heroine is THIRTY. I wrote it for adults! It is fine if teens want to read it, but it’s not YA and that is FINE.

Can I say, as a former AP Lit teacher, how happy all the posts dissecting the halftime show and its symbolism are making me today? I almost want to go back in the classroom. This man just gave us a whole unit plan. Lessons for DAYS.

Yesterday I posted a video about the SAVE Act to TikTok. It was a voiceover on a screenshot of the bill. It was blocked by TikTok due to “violence and gore”. Today I posted a follow up video over another screenshot of the text of the bill. It’s being blocked for “sex and nudity.”

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

You know who is less likely to have a birth certificate that matches the name on their legal ID? (It’s married women). And you know which married women are more likely to change their names/less likely to have a passport?(It’s not college educated liberals) www.americanprogress.org/article/the-...
