Marketing, writing, dog person, rosé is underrated. Midwestern. Fashion, politics, history, psychology, putting sand in the gears of patriarchy, etc.

Side note: Bought Jonathan Van Ness curly hair creme and really like it! Usually cream is too heavy for my fine texture, but this isn’t heavy at all. (Second day hair pictured).

I think my new holiday break movie tradition is the 3 Benoit Blanc Knives Out movies. All entertaining and you catch funny details with every watch.

Made my family play euchre today and we tapped into a Midwestern resonance so deep, it felt a little sacred.

My boss elected to do my annual performance review on Christmas Eve, which… was not something I’d like to repeat next year. :/

Christmas Eve. Wishing you a quiet moment tonight...where the noise fades...the weight lifts...and you remember you’re not alone. Whatever this year took from you...may tonight give something back: warmth...grace...and the simple relief of hope.

I like that my neighborhood has lots of mature trees, but also get tired of encountering gruesome bunny dissections (and trying to keep my dogs away from them) from all the red tailed hawks 🤢

Real talk: Have you sent a drink or food order back simply because you didn’t like it? Even if made correctly?
Midwesterner ethos: Order something you don’t like, that’s on you.

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Put it on every local news station until everyone sees what we’re doing. I hope these people get a trial by their peers and watch what they did in slow-motion.
MINNEAPOLIS: “We kept yelling ‘she’s pregnant! She’s pregnant!’ — they put their knees in her… the handcuffed woman was dragged on the ground…”
Lawless.

I have a specific bottle of wine set aside to celebrate the day we get the news, but I’m starting to think that’s not enough.
Maybe I should enclose it in a glass case, with an ornate ceremonial hammer? Something to intensify the celebration.

you might be compelled to assume this means they have a backbone but really they just know they'd be risking their seats given how elections are going right now
🚨New: Indiana Republicans ignored threats on their lives and rejected President Donald Trump’s demand that they gerrymander the state’s House map to help protect the party’s majority in next year’s midterms.

I’ve been saying this: IN legislators did not reject redistricting because of sudden spine growth, but because they know we are more purple than anyone will admit and they’re balancing on a pin head.

If someone in the White House press corps doesn't ask Trump today why he's so scared of strong women, they should all go home.
