Just a human who reads, knits, crochets, & takes too many pics of my animals. All while living in a college town helping other humans figure out what classes to take.

A black cat crossing your path is simply going where it wants to go. You should do the same, and follow your own path.

Every time I meet with a student whose last name is Skinner. I must say it out loud in Superintendent Chalmer’s voice.

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

We are doomed to relive every stupid thing about the 80s. Only this it’s not just the mistakes of the 1980s corporate greed. It’s also the 1880s post reconstruction environment, and the 1780s love of slavery. :(

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

What’s happening in Sicily, Italy 🇮🇹 is absolutely extraordinary! Mount Etna is erupting while its summit remains covered in snow—an incredible clash of fire and ice. Here are some explorers skiing between lava flows and snowy slopes—a truly unprecedented sight! ⛷🔥❄️

I have the voice of Scott Thompson as Buddy Cole in my head for the last couple days: "Americans know as much about Canada as straight people do about gays. Americans arrive at the border with skis in July! And straight people think that being gay is just a phase. A very long phase."

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

The worst thing about press/tv/media knuckling under like beaten dogs is that there is a massive potential market for content that tells Trump or Musk to go fuck themselves. You want clicks? Engagement? Views? Step the fuck up, put on your big boy pants, and do your fucking job. You will make $.

If Republican senators confirm Hegseth they own him. And his history suggests that will be a costly purchase indeed.

I'm preemptively pardoning my dogs for how annoying they are going to be, stuck inside with me when it is snowy and cold. I pardon their future farts. I pardon their future PET ME looks while I'm trying to work. I pardon their future begging.
