I'm on a train and just overheard someone say, "Whole mass loads of ICE." I started looking around for uniforms before realizing I'm in the UK and they mean ice 🧊
This timeline sure is something.

I was today years old when I realized I still hit cmd+S to save while working in Google Docs even though I am online and it's autosaving. My computer teacher from the 1900's would be proud.

Me: Hey Siri, play Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

I'm not saying the news wire photographers kept intentionally lining Trump's head up with the Easter Bunny's ears, but they were absolutely doing that

It's 10:15pm. There are two people sitting on a bench in the park across from my building. One of them has rams horns. I want to ask so many questions--Who are you? Where did your horns come from? What are you talking about? But they look deep in thought so I guess I'll make up my own stories.

Agreed, and the more we amplify what Booker is doing, the more we make it matter, in public perception and as an example to other elected officials. On the other hand, the more we disparage and tear it down, the more we make it not matter. It's not all up to him.
I've come along to this take after kneekerk cynicism. Doing stuff that grabs attention is good. Not every action has to accomplish everything. You can praise and be happy about a step forward. We're going to need many steps forward.
yall we can’t collectively screech that “no one’s doing anything!” and then say “no not like that” when someone actually does something.
is Booker’s filibuster gonna save the world? of course not. but since courage begets courage it could lead to more. I’m fucking cynical as hell but come on.

I don't want the confidence of a mediocre whit man--I want tbf confidence of someone who crosses a Baltimore city street without looking at the traffic while they do so.

Had a really good first date recently. How soon is too soon to discuss our plans for getting through the collapse of our country? Do we need to send dark humor memes for a few days first?

I'm about to drop some random scripts and carousels tonight. It's not going to be as orderly as I normally am; there's just a LOT going on.
But follow this thread. Script 1: RFK has made it through committee. CALL. YOUR. SENATORS.
We have to do everything in our power to defeat him.

![RFK HAS MADE IT THROUGH COMMITTEE. CALL YOUR SENATORS:
YOU: Hi, my name is [name], and I’m calling from [zip code].
YOU: I’m calling on [SENATOR] to vote against RFK Jr.’s nomination to HHS when it comes to the floor. His stance on vaccines and non-medical science is dangerous, and will absolutely cause medical harm.
YOU: Is [SENATOR] really okay with someone this inexperienced running such a sensitive position? What will [SENATOR] do, when we have outbreaks all across the country and the next pandemic? All of this comes at a cost.
YOU: I am calling on [ SENATOR] to reject his nomination when the vote comes tot he floor.
