If you’ve been unsure about whether to read Careless People, consider this your explicit sign from the universe to add to cart.

We live in a society run by amoral losers.

musk’s defenders saying “he wants us to go to space so that we survive when the sun consumes the earth!” as if that won’t happen for 5 BILLION years while he uses up precious natural resources and burns all of our water on AI supercomputers NOW

Just received a consent form request to allow an “ambient scribe” (AI recording and transcribing tool) to listen to and summarize my *private therapy sessions*

I’m boiling over with rage and have never hit no on a consent form so fast.

This silly old man is the love of my life and was ALSO returned twice before swindling me into taking him home.

He’s the best thing I’ve ever done.

Adopt don’t shop y’all.

Stoked to see my op-ed with Ciera Blehm in the Sunday print edition of the Denver Post!

The fiasco at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, where a forensic tech mishandled evidence for decades, further fractures the fragile trust sexual assault survivors have in the criminal-legal system.
