So apparently JD Vance decided to go skiing, and thought it would be a good idea to do this in Vermont, of all places. VERMONT. He's getting exactly the reception you'd expect.

I just finished reading They Were Her Property by @sejr-historian.bsky.social and it’s one of the most heartbreaking, infuriating, necessary books I’ve ever read.

I had to take my cat to urgent care yesterday. Logically, I knew it probably wasn't bird flu, because he's very low risk (indoors only, no raw food, and I've been careful about tracking things in on my shoes and outerwear), but I was still terrified he'd caught it somehow. (My cat will be fine.)

saw this circulating on Instagram the other day and I can’t stop thinking about it. “Who cares anymore what particular knot they used in the binding?” is such a perfectly expressed repudiation of the “economic anxiety” framing

The vibe I tried to capture in my email to my MAGAt Congressional rep. And I ticked the box saying I wanted a reply, so they have to read it and respond.

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

It is very difficult to eat soup when you’ve got a cat climbing all over you.

Called my doc’s office to talk to a nurse about the stomach bug I’ve had since Friday. “Is anyone else in the household sick?” She asks. “No, I live alone.” I reply. “It’s just me and my cat, and he’s fine.” She was not entertained.

I’m starting to think my immune system made some sort of deal with the devil. “You will be exposed to Covid many times and never test positive, but you will catch everything else. Your common colds will last for weeks, always hovering right below the threshold for seeking medical attention.”

TFW you’re trying to relax into an audition but it turns out they have you read for a character who is basically having a panic attack so instead you can style your literal anxiety vibrations into a character choice.

It started snowing yesterday as soon as I started watching Hallmark Christmas movies. Coincidence? Yeah.

Also some of us live in places where we're the political minority and we get enough of that nonsense in everyday interactions.
