Oh, I keep forgetting about this. Hello! I am no longer a teacher. I am now a barista and am infinitely more happy and relaxed. I don’t have looming dread over my head each day.

I saw the greatest thing in the world today. I love St. Louis!

I saw someone take two single use bottles of water and pour them into a metal travel cup and then throw the plastic bottles away. I sighed so hard my soul left my body.

Sometimes community building is simply getting together with your friends to accomplish goals you could not do by yourself. Remember to count on your friends when big things arise. #IdesOfMarch #ThusAlwaysToTyrants

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

A king’s head is a noble and heavy thing. As such, it cannot be placed just anywhere. The only spot that can accurate such a righteous thing is a basket at the based of a machine of wood and steel.

My favorite thing about Musk is his attention to detail. He wanted to embody Grima Wormtongue so much that he spend decades cultivating a greasy stringy aesthetic. That kind of dedication is only possible with a huge brain or Ketamine.

Got married this weekend. Best advice I can give you for a wedding is to invite just the cool and interesting people you know, that way the vibes are PERFECT.

Highly recommend writing thank you notes after your wedding rehearsal dinner/night out. You will cry a lot, but that is a feature not a bug. In general thank the people you love more often than you do. Holy shit it feels good.

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

When people complain about not being able to say slurs and offensive language, I just k owe they are cowards. You never have not been able to say those words, people just called you out on it. Say it all you want, just stand by those words. Own them, you punk ass crybaby loser.

Just fyi, if you call it the Gulf of America, I am calling you a dork ass loser.

@taskmaster.tv We are having a wedding this Saturday in St. Louis, and we are doing a fun little “wedding master” game to encourage fun silly memories. Just wanted to reach out and say thanks for inspiring whimsy!

Sometimes life is hard. But also sometimes you make a sandwich that tastes like straight up optimism. Life is all about balance. There are fascists, but also sandwiches.

Colombia is the source of my favorite coffee varietals. Trump is attacking breakfast with the extreme fury. Is he in the pocket of big lunch, or just an idiotic windbag surrounded by sycophants?

My money is on the latter.

I don’t know how I ended up on “Lesbian pop star thirst traps set to ‘Father Figure’ by George Michael” TikTok but I am just happy to be here.

Representative Ogles putting forth an amendment to allow trump to run for a 3rd term. How about instead he Ogles Deez Nutz!!

I am so excited for the new Superman movie. It looks like the perfect mix of fighting big monsters, saving small children, and smoochin’ that makes for the best stories.

I got to sub for an astronomy class today. It was awesome. I had to deliver notes with no idea what was going to be on the next slide. It was like a PowerPoint night, except my audience were students who needed to know this info. High stakes!

When St. Louis gets a #PWHL team, I would like to suggest the name be the Rhythm. That way our hockey teams combined would be the Rhythm and Blues.

Thank you.

I get frustrated when people point out right wing hypocrisy, mostly because I am not sure who it is for. The folks on the right seem to be unfazed by it, and folks on the left have been shouting about it. Maybe it is for smug centrists to feel superior for a fleeting moment before the world ends?
