As a woman with a female gaze, simply do not do this. We don’t want this. We want Magnum PI. We want ‘79 Knicks. We want to see what your leg day do.
Any government that isn't right now accelerating plans to transition to 100% clean, renewable energy is either:
a. Incompetent
b. In the pockets of people who'd rather they didn't
c. a & b

Bennedict Mathurin was on a Pacers team that started 10-15, earned #4, got through Brook Lopez's Bucks and Darius Garland's Cavs, and made it all the way to G7 of NBA Finals

WGME headline: Collins says some ICE policy changes needed as DHS funding fight continues
Sinclair station in Maine running a headline reflecting pretty much the opposite of Susan Collins actual stance tells you where the politics of ICE are at the moment.
Trying to occupy every position on the ideological spectrum simultaneously is a difficult task in 2026. #MEpolitics

Happy #festivus Revolutionary idea this year: for once let's NOT AIR OUR GRIEVANCES! Every day is Festivus now. Too many feats of strength. Too little tinsel. I am grateful I wrote this book and have had so many pleasurable experiences with the "holiday."
We were under siege and only had enough fuel to last a day, but it miraculously lasted eight. We are being asked to endure again, and trying to look for light, I say we will.

Six years ago, after watching my circle of friends surrender one too many evenings to insurance wrangling and doctor portals and DMV confusion, I emailed them a proposal: Come over next Tuesday. Grab a six pack. And bring your bills, your credit-card statements, your school forms, the streaming services you need to unsubscribe from, the airline miles you need to manage, the expenses app you need to figure out. I’d be throwing the lamest party ever. At the heart of this party was a truth that has gone under-acknowledged in recent years: We’re all sinking. We’re sinking into a quicksand of tiny, dumb administrative tasks. It is the most tedious quicksand imaginable. Tasks once accomplished with a quick phone call now require logging into a new website, which requires remembering yet another password. Disputing a charge means arguing with a chipper chatbot, or submitting to an hour of brain-melting hold music—call volume higher than expected!—only to be disconnected.
This is...sort of brilliant.
Keep at it. You are doing good work.
