50 Shades of Grey is only "romantic" because he's a bilionaire. If he lived in a trailer park it would be an episode of Criminal Minds.

Actually, clench your jaw. Hold your shoulders so tight someone would flinch if they touched you. Become immovable, become stone, become the foundation of an ancient village, the ghost of a town long after humans have moved on

This is how I cope with the state of the world
A dog with a hat sits on a chair with a vacant stair of disassociation in front of a table with a cup filled with some sort of beverage. The room is on fire and smoke fills the ceiling. Accepting its fate, the dog asks If anyone would like to hear about its special interest. I am the dog on so many levels and the world is the burning room.

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

I mean, Jesus kinda is a bit of a softie. You don’t sacrifice your life in a painful and humiliating death to save the people who caused that suffering if you’re not at least a little bit woke about the suffering they are going through.

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

When I captioned the news, I was supposed to clean up people's speech a bit, removing false starts & filler words, etc. Captioning Trump as close to verbatim as I could & still get it past QA was one very small yet satisfying thing I could do to feel less helpless.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

Don’t be glum about the long, cold winter. Look around: the trees are busy, not sleeping. When the temperature permits, cells in this bud are dividing, maturing into flowers, leaves, stems. The cambium, maker of all the trees, is preparing for its spring festivities. Be like a tree: keep growing.

happy new year from me and my favorite poem (by Kate Baer) ✨🌙
Moon Song
You are not an evergreen, unchanged by the pitiless snow. You are not a photo, a brand, a character written for sex or house or show. You do not have to choose one or the other: a dream or a dreamer, the
bird or the birder. You may be a woman of commotion and quiet. Magic and brain.
You can be a mother and a poet. A wife and a lover. You can dance on the graves you dug on Tuesday, pulling out the bones of yourself you began to miss. You can be the sun and the moon. The dance a victory song.

On reading this, it occurs to me that Gaiman could have had an endless supply of WILLING partners for whatever his heart desired, no matter how depraved. Which means what he really desired was UNWILLING partners. Which means Neil Gaiman is a rapist. Period.
