I got hit by a car last week and only apologized once; I was pretty proud of myself.
"To be honest, I’m mainly just determined to stop apologizing when someone else steps on my foot. That happened for the last time this past weekend and is what really sparked this whole revolution in me."
I, a Woman, Am Officially Done Saying “I’m Sorry”
Dear colleagues, I just wanted to reach out and let you know that I’m officially done saying sorry. As a woman, I feel the flippant use and misuse ...

I want to say I once heard something about wall-climbing cattle but I don’t think it was in this context.
I knew they blamed immigrants for everything, but I didn’t think they would blame immigrant cows for hamburger prices.

Happy November 1st! Welcome to second October. Things are dying. Night comes sooner, hungrier than in the summer. The cold is here. Things haunt the woods. Snow can trap you, Donner Party your plans. Colds and flus awake, go hunting. Yeah, it’s still spooky season. It’s always spooky season.

Trump is NOT a doctor and no one should be taking medical advice from a man who once told people to inject bleach.
Talk to your doctor and listen to the experts—not conspiracy theorist quacks like Trump and RFK Jr.

Since I’m seeing the comparisons again, your regular reminder that comparing Trump to Marie Antoinette is unkind. Marie Antoinette helped convince France to back the colonists during the Revolutionary War and was thus a significant positive for America.

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

There's something really funny about how Gen Z has realised that all you have to do is film yourself making shocked faces and mouthing WOOOOW to hit songs from the 70s and 80s and put it on YT and it's basically a free money transfer service from boomers

I admit, I was concerned when this exhibit was proposed. I thought it would look arrogant and braggadocios. Instead, it made a lot of people right, and reminded me that I'm not always right. Also, if you follow my past dresses, they Invoke the Names.
At @seattlein2025.org there was an exhibit of previous dresses worn by @seananmcguire.bsky.social at previous cons. I happily played the game of "Oh I photographed her in that one, and in that one and..."

I had serious doubts about CDC Director Monarez’s willingness to stand up against RFK Jr.’s personal mission to destroy public health in America—I’m glad that I was wrong.
