If you’ve been in an abusive relationship with someone whose assistance you needed, you felt the Oval Office meeting deeply.

It’s impossible to get needs met in that situation without losing critical pieces of yourself.

I am incredibly ashamed of what passes for “leadership” in this regime.

This is what it feels like today. Ugh.
Everything is exhausting.

Hyde Park, London

Perhaps my favorite bird encounter of all time. The pigeons in this park are rather used to being fed. I refrained, but snapped these while a squirrel climbed my leg looking for same.

What have I gotten myself into? This embroidery project has a 39 page pattern. Hah! #godzilla

Sometimes this guy thinks my house is a tree but he got it right today. Tree is a tree.

Also: a group of woodpeckers is called a descent

What is your favorite #collectivenoun?

It’s hard for me to choose. I really appreciate that a group of swallows is called a gulp. But I am equally enthusiastic about a group of #pandas being called an embarrassment.

I haven’t watched much SNL besides old clips of McKinnon in years. @jennpozner.bsky.social validates that aversion with her latest media critique.
Before SNL tonight, let's talk about their first post-election ep. Would love to hear your thoughts on my essay about Lorne Michaels' capitulation in advance.

SNL's gutter misogyny was more than a bomb, it was betrayal by an institution that previously met the moment in times of national crisis.
Dissociation, Misogyny, and Saturday Night Live in Authoritarian Times - Women’s Media Center
Saturday Night Live, a cultural mainstay that has offered healing and hope at pivotal moments of national crisis, chose instead to rub salt in the wound in its first post-election episode.

Last night I had a dream that involved being unable to navigate through a herd of cows because they had reached the season in which they become squishy (overripe?) and therefore difficult to push past. (They were also green.)

I would like to unsubscribe from this dream feed.

The way so many in the room are attempting to ignore what’s happening . . . I would be in awe.
Māori MPs briefly suspended the Aotearoa parliament’s attempts to reinterpret their founding treaty in the most bad ass use of the Haka I’ve ever seen.

It’s time for me to publicly admit I have *a thing* for collective nouns. Please enjoy this rafter of turkeys in my neighbors yard today.
