I have to take pictures of where I put stuff. I’ve taught my children to do the same. The problem is we live in a chaotic house with my parents who almost definitely also have ADHD and won’t remotely acknowledge that we can try to do things a different way that makes sense, and they move things🥲.

Dude, them adding in “especially with SNL starting tonight,” when he’s no longer employed there was brutally unnecessary🫠.

Thank you for the correction. I needed this reminder coz it’s SO HARD when daily life is filled with MAGA school boards and city councils. And full disclosure I don’t live in SD but just north where our rep also covers north county and I’ve never had a democratic congressional or state rep🫩

My hottest take? Housing should have never been treated as a wealth-producing asset.

This also tends to be a person who’s most obsessed with violent revenge fantasies versus the work to diminish harm or even victim care.

Yep. They also only consider the victim if they fit the perfect victim criteria. “Reckless girl at party” isn’t a true victim, but helpless daughter shopping is. And they couldn’t care less about reality and statistics.

As a professor of the wise Brennan Lee Mulligan once said, “…personality predates ideology,” and I think remembering that informs a lot of angst or confusion we might feel about a lot of people.

Please don't give the DA reopening the Cornell case any cookies. District Attorney Matthew Van Houten all but called Jane Doe a liar today. He said that in Doe's initial statement, she described "her participation in drug use and sexual conduct as voluntary, conscious, and consensual.” CONSENSUAL

I am chronically online and the only thing I can tell you about Ella Langley is that her name is Ella Langley. Algorithmic social media is not something new or mysterious, but they’re diagnosing social ills in this article over people not getting fed the content to be aware of something? Bananapants

Happy bi visibility day. My most viral tweet from back in the day is still going around on Instagram in increasingly grainy quality
Screenshot of a tweet from my old twitter account which says: “Asking a bisexual woman to explain her type like” and then it’s a picture of Stephen Nedoroscik and a picture of Ilona Maher

With so many tragedies in our time, the one I keep thinking about is how multiple generations of people think eggs are dairy because they couldn’t understand that protein section of the food pyramid.

Okay, my media-illiterate people with tiny baby brains: Understand that when people mistreat sentient robots and computers in fiction it's a commentary on how we treat other people, usually marginalized groups. It is not and has never been about the possibility machines are or could be people.

All it took was one person to confront Rob Sand at his town hall for his anti-trans statements. There are 26 Democrats that have taken bad votes or made bad statements towards transgender people. Those who disagreed with my article said to talk to the dems instead. So, we are. Go do it!
