Vin Scully once told a story about me ⚾️

The inconvenience of the Kavanaugh Stop, "inconvenience" functioning as a paraphrase of "the total negation of your rights as an American." If this ever ends, I will be eager to remind people that there were multiple Nuremberg Trials, including one of the judges who perverted the law for the regime.
There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.

ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.

Why is ICE harassing women?

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

note to self:
next time you decide to make applesauce at 5am, don’t measure your lemon juice into a mug and then set it next to your coffee cup

It just feels like everything is being flattened. Rape, genocide, wildfires, etc etc is all just fodder for internet discourse rather than turning points that lead to… something, anything better or different.
It’s so true. It’s actually horrifying to see the memes and jokes about this.

Proud of myself for finishing an actual in my hands book in under a week for the first time in years.

Celebrated by spending two hours online watching people make sourdough bread.

Life’s about balance, baby.

In case I needed a sign that less screen time and more book time is vital - I just tried to pinch & spread this plate to see what the heck’s going on with Lou’s shiny shirt 🙈

apparently I’m paying too much attention to Eleanor

Reading Eleanor Gehrig recall becoming a ‘drop-in’ student, wandering into university classes and trying to get lost in the crowds. Is that still a thing? I am smoll and feel like I could be very good at this very intriguing shenanigan.

Got stuck behind a truck with a huge trump 2028 sticker in the window on my way to drop off at the food bank and I just want to scream.

I’m sorry @ahandleforian.bsky.social but this calls for a national FIFA boycott I don’t make the rules

If I recall correctly, this loses its color as it cooks. Uncooked though, that purple cauliflower sure is a joy to look at.

Have always loved a pbj sandwich but it hits different when the jam is homemade. 🤤

Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper
