This weekend can be more tiring and stressful than usual. Memories can be hard. You’re not alone though. Friends care about you. Let them be there for you.

My dear friends, please remember that Memorial Day is about recognizing those lost among the military ranks. Be mindful of those who are reflecting on friends gone and family no longer present. Be respectful with your sentiments. May their memories be a blessing.

Mama Bear thinks that all the other late night shows should have a Colbert segment every week. He can rotate among them as a floating, forever guest.

My hottest parenting take is that Raffi is not only the great to ever do it, but he’ll probably never be bested. Michael Phelps-ass children’s songwriter.

COLBERT: How dumb do you think it is for people to say that I should run for president? OBAMA: Well, you know, the bar has changed. I think you would perform significantly better than some folks we've seen. COLBERT: Is that an endorsement? OBAMA: It was not

Registered my oldest for kindergarten today and had the heartbreaking realization that before she puts on her clear backpack and goes to school and has active shooter drills I’m going to have to have a conversation with her about guns and her life will never be the same.

Two nights ago, I said Trump had been using our troops as pirates in Iran and a Republican got mad. Well… the president just admitted it. He literally bragged about doing piracy.

The Voting Rights Act is essentially dead and it’s quite possible that we will, like when a similar SCOTUS gutted civil rights at the fall of Reconstruction, see a disappearance of much of the Black congressional representation, especially in the most heavily Black states, which are in the South.

I kind of wonder if we are creating the conditions where people will learn how to read but not how to write. Where, in other words, we can consume information without the ability to analyze or produce it.

It’s just interesting to me that with ZERO information about the shooter and conflicting reports about events everyone on the right is assuming Trump was the target and not the hundreds of journalists that he and his cronies like Tuberville have been calling enemies of the state for a decade.

#goodreads reviews are so ridiculous sometimes. 2 ⭐️: I thought this book was going to be about something else, even though it clearly states in the subtitle, the back cover, and the opening pages that it is not, in fact, about that thing I like, but it would have been better had it been.
