Just finished Careless People (the FB memoir) and I mean we knew Zuckerberg and Sheryl Sandberg were the worst people, but holy hell. They (plus Joel Kaplan) should not be walking around unsupervised mixing with actual humans. The worst moral degenerates.

I am an American and I stand with Zelenskyy and Ukraine.

Trump aka Krasnov and Vance aka Eddie Haskell are an international disgrace. Americans are ashamed of them and they do NOT represent our opinions.

I just laughed out loud at this. I mean, it made sense while I was listening to them.

I've been married for 16 months and so far this is the secret to a happy marriage.

I want to say again that 252 million Americans did not vote for Trump, and Musk only created 77 million votes for him. None of what's happening is by our choice and we don't wish any harm on the rest of the world.

A friend is a member of an ELCA church and a secret group of people inside the church are trying to take it over for the (homophobic bigoted) NALC. I suspect that this is happening to more than one ELCA church, so if you know anything about this, will you message me?

Today's email was a recipe for Roasted Apple Cake. You know I was a recipe developer in a previous era? Sometimes I just get the bug and need to create recipes. pecsenye.kit.com/posts/commun...

Reupping this because it feels increasingly urgent that we remember: When we're on "social media," we are part of the media ecosystem, and have responsibilities, too.
It's always important to follow On The Media's excellent guidance but especially in the midst of horrifying events that are all too given to misinformation.

If you learn that you've shared false information: Screengrab, delete/de-RT, & tell your followers about it, with the screengrab.

Today I wrote about bird flu and what we should be watching for now that we have no health communications from the government.

I just used the word "xerox" as a verb in a text with my Gen Z kid and I'm waiting to see if he uses context clues to figure it out.

If you're a real person, especially one I already know or parasocially know, and I didn't follow you back, tell me who you are. I've got a lot of bots following me so if I don't connect who you are right away I'm just not following back. But of course I'll follow real people back.

In my most recent email I'm talking about how to be kind to yourself if letting go of your adult kid appropriately is hurting too much. Sign up for the emails on the site.

Surely John Bolton's mustache will provide him some protection from anyone who wants to off him.

One of my deeply-held beliefs is that anyone anywhere is allowed to complain about the weather, even if it's totally typical of where you are.

I'm irked that it's super-cold in the Midwest but I'm in MA right now and it's almost a blazing 20°F. January is supposed to be cold!

Now you complain.

I used to go looking on social media for people to punch verbally for being unethical. Then, after I was diagnosed with ADHD, I found out that looking for trouble online was part of ADHD to get an adrenaline high. Gross, right? So I stopped. But now these MAGA MFers are right here...

Anyways, we'll always remember Snoop. The West Coast jams he gave us in the 90s. Hanging out with Martha Stewart & being her bestie in crime. Being one of our finest ambassadors for that sweet mary jane the world has known. But his sun has set now. He's performing for MAGA money. Pour one out.

I finished the @barbrastreisand.bsky.social memoir! Takeaways:

1. It's the first audiobook I ever made it through!

2. Barbra is very funny. I laughed through the whole thing, and cried more than I thought I would.

3. There's legitimately nothing wrong with being good at things.

Announcement: I have listened to 44 hours of the @barbrastreisand.bsky.social memoir and have 4 hours left. I continue to delude myself that we're friends, especially since her love story with Jim is like my later-life love story with my silver fox husband.

A friend of mine just got divorced from a bully, and it's been legal for about a month, and the difference in her is astounding. She's lighthearted and funny and clever again, instead of anxious and careful and small like she's been for the past decade, at least.

I'll need to check with all the other Michiganders and with Big @govgretchenwhitmer.bsky.social but I'm going to say that we might volunteer to have Michigan be traded to Denmark in exchange for Trump getting Greenland on or about January 21.

I've been listening to @barbrastreisand.bsky.social 's memoir for months now (when I'm in the car by myself) and I wanted to be done by tomorrow, but I just realized that I don't want it to be over. This is the first book I've ever been able to listen to instead of read with my eyes.
