I don’t know how I can do the next four years without cracking. These ten days have felt like a thousand.

RIP, President Carter. You were a good man, a role model to us all, and we were honored to live in your lifetime.

My first attempt at char siu pork was a success!

one of the things we are going to regret most about the last decade is not making cryptocurrency flat illegal. i think you should think hard about what it means to have much of the president's inner circle heavily invested in an asset class which depends on the collapse of the American economy.

Isabella Rossellini wandering around the background of scenes in CONCLAVE is what’s known as a Chekhov’s Nun.

Today I wore a jumpsuit. You know how jumpsuits are when you have to use the bathroom, and my brain does too. The minute I left the house, my brain told me I was going to have to use the bathroom soon. It was lying, my subconscious was just panicking in anticipation. The brain is something. 🤯🙄

"For three years, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office produced its own crack cocaine, so it could sell it to people that deputies would then arrest for buying crack cocaine."

Winnie had her annual visit to see Santa this week. They remembered each other, caught up on their respective years, and turned to me and smiled. ❤️

I was fully convinced I was going to witness a crash. My hands were in front of my face by the end. Just stop moving when you hear/see sirens!!! (And the audiobook makes it slightly surreal, IMO)

My new shirt. In my villain era!

Winnie got a new dog bed for Black Friday. I accidentally went a little large! Here’s the old on top of the new. And I annoyed the sleeping princess. How dare I! 🙄😂

I'm just glad that the righteous journalists who lacked the courage to call out Trump for his multifarious lies and crimes have found the courage to stand against Joe Biden for pardoning his son over selective prosecution. You found your spines in a bucket of shit, and I give you your due credit.

Perhaps more of the legacy media should have pushed back on his lies at the time. @democracydocket.com did.

Me: say cheese! 📸 Tuni: 😁

Infusion time. I’m over them, while also sincerely grateful they’re available. Side effects, multiple pokes, I’m just over it right now. But the alternative is worse. Blah. #ChronicIllness

it's weird to dismiss the RIGHTS OF HUMAN BEINGS as "a culture war" as if **everything** isn't a facet of our culture do people think culture is this thing, separate from them? something you can opt out of?

This isn't a culture war. This is the only trans congresswoman, ever being bullied through the press and legislation, and having only 1 of hundreds of colleagues stand up for her. They can do more than 1 thing at a time. Defending her will not take so much effort that they can't do their jobs.

With plans to gut the EPA, this is what we have to look forward to. 😷

"If you’re a health-care worker who sees a patient in a mask, put one on for them. Don’t make them ask. Don’t psychologize them. Don’t betray the trust they’ve shown you. They’ve put their lives in your hands. Don’t take that for granted, it’s not an easy thing for many of us to do"

I hate the new look of Apple Mail in iOS. It’s too busy! Also, put my supermarket back to its old layout. I still can’t go directly to what I need, and I hate walking all the aisles. Stop changing things, dammit! 👵🏾

My new favorite is bacon, jalapeño, and bell pepper. ❤️

He’s nominating Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. At least the investigation into his sex trafficking of underaged girls will finally be dropped. 🙃

Not everyone is built for fame, and that’s truly okay. Yes, celebrity culture can be toxic, and it shouldn’t be as hard as it is. But it is. Sometimes it’s okay to back away and take a different path. Not every artist is built for stardom. (Chappell Roan, this may or may not apply to you.)

“…the GAO says it found that in K-12 public schools, Black girls had the highest rates of so-called ‘exclusionary discipline,’ such as suspensions and expulsions.” The study found “Black girls received nearly half of these punishments, even as they represent only 15% of girls in public schools.”

A person can support Israel and also be an antisemite. A person can have Jewish family members and also be an antisemite. A person can claim to love the Jews and also be an antisemite. Trump is an antisemite.

Please don’t make that man into a martyr. For one thing, he doesn’t deserve it. (Take that however you choose.)

Calling now: “concepts of a plan” is this elections “binders full of women”

The whole “concepts of a plan”thing is why Project 2025 matters so much. Dude doesn’t want to think about anything but deporting grandmas and taking the pensions of anyone who doesn’t call him “Sir.”

“I love that her face is not using its inside voice” says my friend of Debate Night.

Getting the Dick Cheney and Taylor Swift endorsement has got to be some sort of achievement

UPDATE: Linda stopped by to spill all of the tea. Buckle up, folks. So Linda is sweet and means well, but is a bit of a trainwreck. She keeps a small chicken coop and is constantly giving everyone eggs whether they want them or not (I do not). She also has 2 dogs. Dana also has 2 dogs.

So, he pronounces his name like walls, not waltz. 👀 oops!
