This is too wholesome

I had the most wonderful flight home from Denver. I met the nicest young man who sat next to me. He offered to put my bag in the overhead compartment and helped me with my tray. He was always polite, saying "yes ma’am" or "no ma’am." Anyone would be proud to have him as a son or grandson—so polite.

People walking by were saying congratulations, great job, or even taking pictures. I turned and asked him, “Who am I sitting next to?” I looked at his Jaguar pants, smiled, and asked, “Are you an athlete?” He smiled and said, “I’m Travis. Yes, I was drafted by the Jags.” I already told my sons I want his jersey.

He’s so humble and down-to-earth—I would have never guessed he was a professional athlete. JACKSONVILLE JAGS, you did good! I will be buying tickets.

United Airlines, thank you for my seat assignment!

Oh, also, read the room. Trans athletes are not cutting VA jobs, threatening Social Security, cutting Medicaid, etc etc etc. Like I get it’s in the zeitgeist, but if you think you *must* have a hot take on every hot button issue, perhaps you should not have a podcast.

J.C. Howard @thejchoward.com · 06/03/2025

Listen, I understand the motivation of folks like Gavin Newsom trying to ‘meet folks where they are’ but let me say this clearly: Scapegoatting trans folks is not the answer. Giving in to the people you think are winning the culture wars, does not itself win you the culture wars.

What a good time to watch last weeks “Have I got news for you!” @roywoodjr.bsky.social @amberruffin.bsky.social & @michaelianblack.bsky.social are (as always) the perfect antidote to gaslighting. And this week @davesfoley.bsky.social & @jasmineforus.bsky.social are a breath of fresh air!

My colleagues at @npr.org have a really great searchable table of Trump's first week of Executive Orders, and what precisely they do/call for. Really useful! www.npr.org/2025/01/28/n...

All the executive orders Trump has signed after 1 week in office

President Trump signed a slew of orders during his first week in office, impacting policy on immigration, the environment, federal diversity programs and more.

I have friends who work for Head Start programs and I’m hearing that they cannot make payroll because of this. Translation: Not only does this place childcare for thousands in jeopardy, but the people who SERVE those children and families may not even be able to make ends meet.

Mollyyyyyy! Don’t drag me! 😭 But seriously, I don’t disagree…I just mean, it may be an empty gesture. But it feels the equivalent of a store instituting a “Take a penny - leave a penny” tray. Like, idk if this helps anyone, but the vibe ain’t all bad.

Listen y’all, don’t drag me for this, but I don’t hate this red dye ban. It may be performative and ultimately not change much itself; but, it isn’t a *bad* idea.

The richest man in the world doing THAT while the President signs an Executive Order to try and end birthright citizenship certainly *feels* like an intentional distraction.

And so little urban sprawl between major hubs; though I will say the dark side of all of this efficiency is the fact that they deported the undesirables. Honestly, a masterclass in how much propaganda and xenophobia people abide in exchange for a system that at least pretends to work for the people

…value proximity to the man behind the curtain. I suggest we pause and reflect on Glinda the “Good,” and pray (if prayer is your thing) that we never see her when we look in the mirror.
