Playing a family game of Apples to Apples tonight, and this was the final winning hand.

Played by my 8 year old.

I'm both proud of their judgement and dismayed that they live in a world where this is the first thing that comes to their mind.

You might be a transphobe if.... you think this movie was a documentary.

Never been more proud to be a Virginian!

is it weird to save the list of names to whom you sent 200 handwritten get-out-the-vote postcards, to check the public record next month and see if they actually voted? asking for a friend.

Doing a SWOT analysis of my organization (human services work with a goal of addressing the needs of marginalized folks), and when listing threats someone just wrote "gestures broadly."

For those who are cancelling #Disney and wondering what to watch with their kids, Netflix has made some of the best kids movies *ever* in the last few years. May I present my top 3:

🦾 The Mitchells Vs The Machines
🗡 Nimona
🎤 K Pop Demon Hunters

Honorable mentions in the comments!

Gee look, my old potato-headed Rep John McGuire was in favor of exposing #Epstein's crimes and child predators in 2019. What changed??

A taped-from-TV copy of the Hugga Bunch Movie, and it has haunted me ever since.

I get great petty enjoyment from using their prepaid donation envelopes to tell #UVA they get no donations from me after the Board Of Visitor's shameful behavior this year.

Every John McGuire post is just him standing by the side of a road looking like a barely sentient potato. There's nothing happening upstairs.

It's August 12th... 8 years since the Nazi rally and deaths in what others call #Charlottesville, but we in this community call #A12. Sharing a photo of the free speech wall, taken a few days after the attacks.

"When hate is loud,
Love can't be silent"

Sending love to everyone hurting today. 💜

Small talk these days.

Happy to see someone at my local Michaels shares my sentiments.

My kids, who normally can't be bothered to sit down for more than 4.3 minutes at a time to eat a few bites of any meal, will fully destroy a free hotel breakfast buffet like there's no tomorrow. Like, 5 courses and an extra snack to take back to the room.

As someone who has only ever voted for Democrats, I don't give a rat's ass how many Dems are in the #Epstein files. Release the info and hold them ALL accountable. Nobody should get a pass, no matter which party they support. It's sad how many Repubs wouldn't say the same.
