Does he get observed every year? That is hard core if so. (We are observed on a cycle but not every year!)

A little on the nose I think 🙁

A black cat and a white cat sit on a lap on a gray blanket on a recliner.

I left for 4 days and their plan is to sit on me forever so I won’t leave again.

I feel like “compelling government interest” is one of those very elastic phrases that stretches to fit any situation. Compelling gov interest to keep energy companies in the solid black? Sure. (Also not a lawyer- I teach AP gov tho, so amateur constitutional expert lol)

Weather app screenshot 33° Feels like 30° | H 60° | L 30° Chance of snow 82% First photo: gas price board showing regular 6.69/gal

I flew home to this, but at least gas is only $4.10?

Downtown San Diego this morning

The fact that they won’t even be able to read this stupid piece of fabric because it’s *folded in a pocket* while you hobnob with the enemy is such a metaphor.

Putting Plessy, Dred Scott, and Buck v Bell right next to each other?

He’s a Protestant. By definition. The whole trad cath phenomenon is so weird. Like there’s plenty of reactionary practices and beliefs in many Protestant churches and if you want to go super hard core, try Orthodoxy! Putin would approve.

Many Popes Have Been Entangled in Politics. Here Are 5 of Them.

exhausted historian of christianity screaming into the void, once again: christianity has never been apolitical. to wit: jesus was executed by the roman state.

My daughter and her GF have a CD case for the car! (Older car still has a CD player) They don’t listen to streaming anymore. She raided my old CD collection and proclaimed I have decent taste 😆

We grew up laughing at hideously cruel films and unchecked bullying at school and fended for ourselves after school. We are feral contrarians. This doesn’t surprise me at all. White Gen X men especially…ugh. My students tell me I have millennial energy and I take it that as a compliment.

Uhhh you’re supposed to let the product set?
This is way too complicated

To all the people who thought my religious studies PhD (with a focus on history of Christianity) was useless: SUCK IT.

It’s not even revenge. It’s plain justice.

We run a voter registration drive at my HS every year. Vermont makes it easy! We have town clerks come in to help.

Or spend a half hour + diffusing it.

I know several men being treated for hpv-caused oral cancers right now. It’s not just for people with a cervix!

We have to raise our political expectations.

THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT. CLEAN THEM OUT

Damn, JD Vance kills everything

I am so so sick of mediocre white men who have failed upward thinking they can solve problems in 1 day that dozens of experts who have spent decades studying IR solutions and working toward them couldn’t solve (or had started to! see JCPOA)
They’re not special. Catastrophic hubris.

She’s not mad, just disappointed. C’mon man! 🪶

Hey your book finally arrived in my mailbox today! I ordered from bookshop.

I listened to the whole thing while sky high and it was super easy to follow so…yeah
If you want better biology try Adrien Tchaikovsky’s children of time series. No way I could follow that unless I was sober lol.

So many of us had ick detectors blaring about this guy. I wish this were surprising- the actions or the coverup. So typically disappointing.

Why are they highlighting his weird walk and death grip on the stairs? Do they really think it makes him look powerful??

I grew up in San Diego! The light is so distinct and not like I ever see here on the east coast for sure. It’s always the first thing I notice when I walk out of old Lindbergh field.

I was also moved by the 4 diverse gen xers who have put in decades of work preparing for a mission they weren’t sure would ever really happen and they actually got to do it. Their joy is so contagious.
