Anyone else know this man?
Photo of a CISCO phone, the kind used in many office settings. The screen displays a mid-call alert, where a person makes a shushing motion next to text which says, “That’s a bit loud! Consider lowering your voice.”

This framing is so bizarre and outdated to me. He doesn’t care about “voters” when his whole goal is to overturn those systems/laws and keep consolidating power for himself and his rich friends, however he can. We can’t do anything until we face that reality squarely apnews.com/article/dona...

Is this a threat? It feels like a threat.

Shoutout to the National Women's Studies Association Conference for modeling "a feminist care ethic, a politics of solidarity and interdependence, and a commitment to dismantling the able bodied supremacist rhetoric claiming it is time to 'move on.'" www.nwsa.org/page/CovidPr... Excited to attend!
Masks While in the conference session rooms and common areas, masks are required unless you are eating, drinking, or presenting. Consider eating and drinking outdoors whenever possible. Encouraging mask wearing in all spaces and sessions at the conference means that we have to be willing to have a conversation with friends, colleagues, and strangers. We hope the premise that we have the power to keep each other safe will guide these interactions. A limited number of masks will be available at registration, along with ribbons denoting individual safety requests. Given that we will only have a limited supply of masks at the Registration Desk, we encourage you to bring your own high quality and well fitting masks.

I really enjoy apples but they must come from my personal list of adequately tart apples (and NO not Granny Smiths! Boring)
Tart apples: - Haralson - Cortland - Braeburn To try: - Pink Lady: OK as a backup, not that tart - Lady (is that the same thing?) - Pacific Rose - McIntosh - Empire - Envy: NOT tart - Jazz - Jonathan - Fujis: NOT tart

Spotify's like, "we heard you were ~eclectic~!"
An album cover -- a shirtless white man looks down at the shirtless white woman leaning against his chest/stomach. Text is in German and English and reads, "Peter Thomas Sound Orchester. Van de Velde: 'Die vollkommene ehe' - 'The Perfect Marriage' and 'Das Leben zu zweit' - 'Every Night of the Week,' Music from Two German Sex Education Films (1968/69)"
