Who could’ve imagined that the solution to high rents is building more housing

Hey Texas friends: the state government is currently talking about how much money to give public schools (not enough) and whether to create a voucher system (a terrible idea). If you have a minute, you can submit a public comment here: comments.house.texas.gov/home?c=c400

Making new friends in the cursed timeline.

The Hulu feed went down before the Oscars were over and now the kids are watching Family Guy and this is my villain origin story.

OH MY GOD biggest upset of the night I thought Demi Moore had this in the bag

Our Hulu feed just died.

The boos in my house over that best actor announcement. 😂

Da’Vine has an Oscar for a reason. Each of these women are feeling it while she reads the hell out of that teleprompter. It’s giving women’s bathroom at the bar hype up

I think we can all agree it's time for desserts and liquor and we have no more time to pretend to be keto

Ah, yes, a tribute to James Bond movie opening credits — aka everyone's favorite part of those films.

Yup. This is THE photo of Andrew Garfield I needed today

I’m already having Hulu issues on a second TV.

I agreed to host ten teenagers for an Oscars party tonight. Already having regrets.

Police say no shots were fired, but there was a a fight involving parents. www.wfaa.com/mobile/artic...

"I will die on this hill!' - me walking up a really big hill.

I see RFK Jr's tackling our Too Many Americans Aren't Dead Problem.

The most King Shit way of saying he's getting so many nudes sent to him

This morning Einstein Bros mistakenly delivered their @hollye83.bsky.social content to me.

Maddow: I think it is a bad mistake to let Joy Reid walk out the door. It is also unnerving to see that on a network where we've got two nonwhite hosts in primetime, both of our nonwhite hosts in primetime are losing their shows, as is Katie Phang on the weekend. I do not defend it.

For this week's installment of the Grown-Up Guide to Romance, Kandis reviews FAN SERVICE by Rosie Danan, a fun, sexy ode to fandom and romance tropes.

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

A heartfelt thank you to former Senators Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema for repeatedly blocking popular policies to preserve “norms” and protect “the rights of the minority” We couldn’t have gotten here without you

the wolves inside me

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

In 1999, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then an environmental lawyer, was named by Time magazine as a “hero of the planet” for his pioneering work to clean up America’s waterways. On his second day as secretary of the DHHS, he ended HHS funding for health and climate change.

Day 1 and my power is out.

Claire Danes Reuniting With #MySoCalledLife Creator Winnie Holzman for New HBO Series

1. The Senate confirmed RFK Jr at the same time as a massive measles outbreak was sweeping through areas of Texas with low vaccination rates. RFK Jr visited Texas yesterday. Not to address the burgeoning crisis but to continue to push anti-vaccine messaging.

It’s not a “savings” if you’re getting fewer services in exchange. I’m still paying the same taxes!

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

“U.S. Food and Drug Administration employees reviewing Elon Musk’s brain implant company Neuralink were fired over the weekend as part of a broader purge of the federal workforce”

Who’s watching without the Duke?

Just remembered how I cracked a tooth during the first Trump presidency from clenching. Really need to remember to wear my retainers now that we’re temporarily without insurance.

Emergency cold weather supplies obtained.
