Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Hah I was explaining this to my high school class just last week! 010
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026It was almost 90 today. The bedroom windows are closed so I can run the ac so I can sleep 100
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I spent most of the day napping or at least lying down 100

Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Yeah agreed. If I were doing decorated I’d do sugar cookies, otherwise choc chip. Which no one fucking decorates thise 010
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Usually I watch GBBO and think, I could never. But all these ppl saying 30 American cookies in 2 hours feels like a lot?!? (Admittedly the idea of decorating cookies is dumb unless it’s a holiday but still) 330
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I would really not expect TX voters to identify with a woman who’d been cheated on but what do I know 060
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The thing I most don’t understand about men is why, when a story about SA comes out, they identify with the perpetrator rather than the victim 1197
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Having spent last week herding teenagers around the valley I have spent all day today on the couch in front of a fan intermittently napping. I am getting too old to keep up with kids in 100-degree heat 030
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 03/10/2026“Flawed” is “has/d a drug problem”, not “drugged and raped teenagers.” A person can do both good and bad things but it’s hard to say someone is a “mensch” when they’ve drugged and raped teenage girls, come the fuck on 070

Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 03/10/2026It’s absolutely unforgivable that parents are forced to relinquish their children to the state to try to get them the care they need. And that this isn’t a national emergency that we are throwing money at. Fuck this country 120
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Sure but as a comms strategy I think that phrase would have legs 010
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Here’s a thought: maybe let’s stop framing taxes as punishment. “Tax the billionaires!” implies that taxes are punishment for greed. How about, paying taxes is fucking patriotic. Use the phrase, “put your money where your mouth is.” 220

Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Dear god the horror of this story. There is no hell hot enough for Paxton and his ilk. May he die in full conscious agony on a hot sidewalk with people casting dirty looks at him for the inconvenience of stepping around his body as they pass 020

Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 01/10/2026My personal version of this is I am in LA this week for a semiannual work thing and my usual strategy of packing maybe 3 outfits so I can rewear things has been foiled by sweat so I had to go to a sale rack I can walk to to pick up an extra top :-/ 020
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 30/09/2026What’s impossible to let go about ppl like that is that they’re running the fucking country. And even if they were out of power nationally, they’ve been running a lot of shit for the entire history of this damn country 031
Tedra Osell @tedos.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Today’s NYT reporting that Maj Jason Watson will likely be court martialled. But I am linking this somewhat older article bc this: “In the grand scheme of things, I’m just a nobody. What matters far more than who I am is what I have to say and the price I’m willing to pay to say it.”stripes.com‘Spoke to change something:’ Air Force major awaits potential court-martial for Trump impeachment commentsAir Force Maj.
