We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

This might be a me thing, but I’m allergic to a group of femme-presenting people being referred to as “ladies” in a group fitness setting. Like it takes me back to the trauma of middle school gym class.

A nice thing about being married is that your spouse can remind you of hilarious stories that you forgot.

I know we keep saying it, but I was not prepared for fascism to be this STUPID.
I did not have ICE attempting to violate the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and nearly causing a diplomatic incident on my risk register and you know what, that’s on me.

ICE just attempted an illegal entry into the ECUADORIAN CONSULATE to abduct someone
They did not have a warrant

There’s so much going on that I got alerts from the city that there’s a mountain lion in Lafayette Park and was like, “Sure, why not?”

Last year, my mom tripped while running after a snow storm and shattered her elbow. So every time we speak on the phone this week, I’m like, “Don’t even THINK about running outside until this is all melted.”

This is small potatoes compared to everything going on, but our microwave has been broken for 2 weeks and I am a leftover QUEEN so this has a large impact on my life. (Supposedly our landlord is getting us a new one this week.)

The constant hot-button political issue of whether or not there should be a nice park everyone likes
Barring unforeseen lunacy we'll be voting on cars on the Great Highway. Yes again.
The matter has become San Francisco's own kidney dialysis.
But that's how we roll. In recent years, it isn't even the most we've voted on a roadway closure.

I'm a broken record on this, but it's shocking how encouraging gambling has gone from separate advertisements (which are bad enough) to a part of the pre-game show.

I normally wear my hair down, especially on Sundays, but I didn’t like how it looked today so I put it in a ponytail. I got so many comments from parishioners that you’d have thought I shaved my eyebrows lol

I was thinking how, when It happens, all the Democratic politicians will make statements about how he loved his family and served his country. Meanwhile the streets will look like the opening scene from Wicked.
