This is it. We need to call out the mysogyny, both subtle and overt in meetings, social situations. We need to be the guys who make it awkward, who walk out saying "If you're going to be an asshole fuck you." We never earned our social position so if we have to lose it to speak the tuth, so be it.

Hey, if you know anyone in Brooklyn, Sunset Park specifically, who recently lost a cat, I found this very personable (and LOUD) little polydactyl on 53rd and 2nd. She's unbelievably sweet. I would love to reunite her with her people

Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

📌Deleting the names of 4 US troops from the war dead is one of the most despicable things the draft-dodging, America-attacking Trump has ever done. It also points to sheer panic in his regime as their unpopular war spirals out of control, threatening to bring down the GOP House and Senate in Nov.

I have to admit that I didn’t know, and I even thought the Spanish player Cucurella’s look was quite original, when it comes to his hair, but I was unaware of this: If he let his hair grow , it’s so that his autistic son can easily recognize him when he watches him on TV. Truly, this Spanish team ❤️

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for twenty minutes this morning, he said in a weak but firm voice, “If I did not think the DoJ would take care of it, I would not have voted against removal’ I quietly sidled up to him, gently caressed his cheek and whispered in his ear “I’m pulling the plug now skippy”
