I didn't actually watch the Lynx game tonight, I just . . . didn't have it in me because I feared things were going to end too freaking early and I hate that I was right. I was hoping I'd check the score later and be excited for a game three. Alas . . . 😭

When it all seems hopeless & like my life is over or at least like it's just going to get worse & worse, I think about how just a couple of months before my husband died, I started writing fiction for the first time. After being surer than I ever have been about anything that I was incapable of it.

Oh shit the White Sox are literally on a mission from God
Letter to Jerry Reinsdorf from the pope

I was pleased to receive the kind letter that you
sent
following the game that took place at Rate Field on August 11, 2026. I am most grateful for this thoughtful gesture.
As I have noted,
"sport can truly become a school of life,
where all can learn that abundance does not come from victory at any cost, but from sharing, from respecting others and from the joy of walking together" (Letter Life in Abundance, 6 February In this spirit, it is my hope that the White Sox will
continue to foster bonds of friendship and solidarity people, and thus bear hopeful witness to the possibility of living and working together in peace.
With
these sentiments, I willingly invoke the Almighty's
abundant blessings upon you and your loved ones.

Good 🧵. My conversations about consent with my kid were kicked off by him REALLY wanting to pet other people's dogs. He understood having to ask first, but wanted to ignore anything other than an outright no. ("He's not really friendly.") We had a lot of convos about recognizing soft no's and

How you teach your kids to treat animals is really important! In our society, animals are one of the only groups with less power than children. If they learn they can punch down, that’s a lesson that will do a lot more damage as they grow up.

Your annual reminder that any treats that have black icing are probably using activated charcoal for coloring which neutralizes meds like, say, birth control pills. Ask my cousin. Quint's 6 now. This also applies to antibiotics and head meds. Be careful, please.

Many comfortable white people prefer to believe the lie that welfare recipients are just lazy scammers since the alternative is deeply uncomfortable: people are suffering as a result of the same structure that enables their comfort.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

When we were casting Teen Titans, I asked if one of my best friends could audition. Everyone was like, “Yeah, sure, whatever.” Then the tapes came in and everyone said, “Isn’t Khary Payton amazing?” I said, “That’s my friend.” And they were like, “THAT’S your FRIEND???” youtube.com/shorts/gjfBy...

My husband and his friends realised they thought they were good guys but still made like, ironic-sexist jokes. They introduced the 'sexism snake' where wherever one of them made a sexist comment or joke, the others would just start hissing. Didn't need to get into an argument about it, just hissing.

Max Scherzer going on short rest to catch Verlander's strikeout total -- and nearly damn well doing it -- is some all time inner circle king petty shit, and I mean that in the most complimentary way imaginable. You gotta tip your cap to a true psycho, and Max Scherzer is an all-time baseball psycho.
