My mom usually watches the Super Bowl, but this year only wanted to watch Jon Batiste perform the national anthem.
And that's such a vibe. I love him so much.

Was rooting for the Eagles but yelling at the tv like I was a Chiefs fan last night. I don't know what got in Mahommes's head, but that was not what we were expecting from him. Like, I'm a football fan first, I just want to see a great game, not a murder.

Happy Monday! Today is a good day to harass your congress critters. Two confirmation votes are up this week (Gabbard, Kennedy), and there's all the other stuff still going on, too. 5calls.org And you can email, too! www.congress.gov/members/find...

Saying DEI with the hard R

Struggling with how to protect my people right now. And not just in the big ways, but in the "yts keep being weird at them in the grocery store" ways. Like, technically it's not appropriate for me to offer to walk behind then at the store w/ a baseball bat, but also I'm really close to doing that.

Linguistically, “DEI” is now the new “critical race theory”: a scapegoat phrase used devoid of any of its actual meaning by people who never understood the original in the first place

All I'm saying is I'm *real goddamned tired* of calling Congress every single fucking day to plead for even the marginal stability I have in my life, much less the prevention of societal collapse.

This isn't "Please don't vote for the highway bypass," you fucking ninnies.

I join the bird app in 2008 when we didn't even know how to post. I curated feeds and algos on multiple accounts over years to be *just right.* They were so good that new algos didn't even penetrate them.
Now as my ppl flock here I needto make extra accounts to keep it all separate again. Sigh.

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."

She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

I know it's because I'm old, but sometimes I just really miss having a curated RSS feed of a bunch of blogs and a single place for links I want to keep, read, or check out.
