people over 30 quote this with some life advice for the rest of us?
Be flexible. Find friends to grow with, who will accept every version of you no matter how often you change your mind about who you want to be. Change your mind often.
Two quotes I live by:
“We always may be what we might have been”
“No matter how far you have gone on the wrong road, turn back”

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.
- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.
- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

AI has decisively killed my love affair with the em dash and concessive arguments. The tell is unmistakable, and it's all over certain genres right now.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country.
Otherwise, it’s just racism.

Dude is so real for showing how quickly everything goes to shit with #ALS -- people just can't conceptualize how awful it is to live in a state of active decay. Fast loss of functionality, slow death. It. SUCKS.

Sometimes I take vitamin D gummies and I feel better enough to trick myself into thinking that all I have to do is OD on vitamin D and I’ll be cured.
I know that's not right but also do I know that?? #ALS #chronicillness
