I met a legend while hanging out with another legend today. I am always humbled and grateful to be in these spaces, but today was extra magical.

Hey folks, let me tell you what is NOT helpful. When you respond to a DEI argument by weaponizing a person's color, gender, sexual preference, etc., against them because it's someone on the other side. By retaliating with, "No, YOU'RE the DEI hire!" you are adopting bigoted language. So stop it.

The Utah House Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Committee voted unanimously today to approve Ashley’s Law, HB127, which amends the length of a sentence for rape committed against an incapacitated adult. It’s the first step to get justice for folks like Ashley Vigil. le.utah.gov/~2025/bills/...

one of the most depressing realizations in politics is the day you understand that a lot of people would legitimately prefer to spend more money to make sure nobody “undeserving” gets a benefit than to make it accessible to everyone

idk man the ‘difficult’ language in ‘difficult’ books is part of the point. don’t you WANT to learn to parse out interesting language and complex ideas? it’s all i wanted when i was a kid! i was so impatient for it!

This story is a fascinating look into militias here in Utah and nationwide. “Coates didn’t give a name, but he said something even more intriguing: “The sheriff is my tie-in to the state attorney general because he’s friends.”” www.propublica.org/article/ap3-...

Yoon Suk-yeol’s biggest mistake? Not going on Joe Rogan.

A John Wick movie where he assassinates everyone shooting off fireworks in a residential area because they upset his dog.

The leopards? No, we are cool. My face? Oh they do that sometimes.

I’m just happy Krypto is a terrier mix, not a lab or a pittie mix as he’s usually drawn in the comics. Rough coat puppers IT IS YOUR TIME!

We had a photo shoot this morning. He’s the perfect model.

First reaction is to celebrate, but knowing this was AGAIN just a way for the BOP to sweep their problems under the rug makes my stomach hurt. The women transferred from here to other facilities are being targeted by their new captors who are making their lives hell. Where is the accountability?

Spotify: “here’s what you listened to this year!!!” Audible: “here’s what you read this year!!!” DoorDash: “here’s what yo…

Privileged people generally experience the system as biased against and as singling them out for abuse, because they cannot imagine that’s just how the system treats people.

Get ready. It’s going to be a brutal ride.

Time to play: am I sick or is it just Utah’s sh*tty air quality?

#Sigh1 As usual, the correction/retraction gets less traction than the initial splash. People's lives were turned upside down. Once the fuse was lit & flamed, it kept burning (still now), despite all the data saying this was not happening. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/u...

Thou shalt not groove to the YMCA while marginalizing the communities that made the song iconic.

THE ARMADILLO WAS JUST TRYING TO VIBE, LADY.

With every passing day I better understand the mothers in Victorian novels who stay in their bedrooms with the curtains closed and complain vaguely about their “nerves.”

Happy Sunday! This is absolutely all we are doing today. In this house, we practice self-care! #dogsofbluesky
