Hey, so ICE is still kidnapping and disappearing people in the United States.
Just because they got quieter about it doesn't make it okay.
Abolish ICE. Chinga la Migra.
Summer at the university where I taught, I was walking across the empty campus when I heard bagpipes. A kilted piper marched by playing "Scotland the Brave" while another guy marched behind him, clapping in time. I stood there wondering if I'd hallucinated it.
I thought Diplo was the toddler Legos that are too big to be a choking hazard.

I mean, technically Vatican City did have the highest per capita murder rate in the world in 1998.
(Yes, that was 3 popes ago, but it's such a weird fact that I had to mention it.)

Do not watch Sesame Street on Tubi with the subtitles on 😭. I swear, I didn't edit or add anything. Is it hilarious? Yes, but also, they need to fix this immediately. Absolutely incomprehensible and bad

I was today years old when I learned that "vaccine" comes from a root word meaning "cow" (though if you know the history of the smallpox vaccine, it makes sense.)
Do these come in women's fit? I need one.
Trump and his administration do not care about women’s lives. Posting a video of a woman being graphically murdered is yet another form of objectification and dehumanization. The purpose of it was to shock and offend, in order to encourage racism against immigrant men. It is a form of terror.
It's OK to chill red wine if you prefer it cold.

I predict he'll go Evangelical at some point, for political expediency.
It’s unclear to me who the Episcopal Church’s Registrar for Conscientious Objectors currently is (I emailed the PB’s office to ask them), but if anybody is frightened about the draft and needs somebody to talk to and potentially write a letter of support/sign your CO registration form, lmk. 🕯️
