I was today years old when I learned that there is a shrine to Ianto Jones from when he was killed off of Torchwood...in 2009...and it's STILL THERE.

Never change, nerds.

be *fully* prepared for every single possible criticism of Steve Scalise to be met by conservatives and centrists alike with feigned-shocked accusations of complicity with the perpetrator of the 2017 mass shooting that he survived

The difference between Elon's Twitter and the The Producers is one is a play about Nazis meant to lose money that accidentally makes money, the other is a guy willing to spend a few billion dollars to create a playground for Nazis.
Max Bialystock thought of it first.

Thinking again how tech bros believe AI will “democratize” art but also how most of them would be aghast at actually funding public art programs that could give people the skills to create their own art.

May or may not have played “Looking for Freedom” on our way to an Oktoberfest and told my children it’s a traditional German anthem.

The two parties are not the same. The Biden Administration is pro-consumer. It’s working to scrub medical debt off of credit reports.

Now, medical debt shouldn’t even be a thing. But since it is, it shouldn’t ruin your credit.

Sometimes work-from-home mom-life be like "this meeting is later than usual and thus my whole internal clock is thrown off and oops I forgot to get my kid from the bus stop" while her brother is off-camera trying to chew through a box of frozen chicken nuggets with his teeth.

A belated happy birthday led to referencing the scene in Falsettos when Marvin is all up in Whizzer’s hairline led to accusing a dear old friend of being an uncultured swine led to “let me be your Sherpa on your musical theater journey” led to “look, even Broadway had a cocaine phase.”

My kids are still small but as they move through their education, I worry what their school experience will be like. We’ve already had the “yes boys can play with baby dolls stfu” convo but I can’t control what happens outside our house. I’m just really thankful to know orgs like this one exist. 🙏

There’s something extra special about crying in the bathroom at work when you work from home.

I've officially become that work-from-home mom who locks herself in the bathroom with her laptop to hide from her children because it's the only way to finish the email I've been trying to compose for like an hour now. #blessed

I used to carry stickers around in my purse to slap on top of hateful graffiti I saw around town, but I rarely used political stickers for it so it was like “I see your homophobic scribbles and I raise you one glittery puppy, a smiley face, and Sven from Frozen,” which I thought was hilarious.

My daughter just asked how you become a billionaire. I told her that you don't, and that billionaires shouldn't exist because they are leeches on society.

So if anyone knows a good book for a 6-year-old that explains why billionaires should be eaten, please let me know.
