Listen to what Georgia Republicans have to say about Jon Ossoff. Georgia…#VoteYourOssoff 💙

Two Black mayors took cities that the country loves to write off and made them measurably safer. That’s not a fluke. That’s a blueprint. Chicago and Baltimore just posted numbers that should be front-page news. They’re not. We need to talk about why. 🧵 www.theroot.com/opinion-blac...

Found out today that a colleague took my instructional materials, changed them, made them incorrect, and is now sharing them as her work. Ma’am, if you don’t know a citation format, don’t “correct” the folks who do. 

Anthem says they won’t cover my prescriptions, but they have identified an easy way for me to cut down on my medical expenses. Apparently it’s called just fucking die already. 

I miss lettuce. And democracy.

Trying to give a cat gabapentin before I’ve had my morning coffee lets me know, in a visceral manner, that I would not survive in the wild.

It’s funny, but Trump has damaged the White House so badly that if a foreign adversary hit it, a good percentage of people would be like, “Eh, it was already kinda fucked up.”

Pre-auth is the stupidest thing ever. The prescription is the auth. That’s the motherfucking auth. How do you want an auth that happens before the auth!?

Okay, okay, hear me out, I have this product idea…

I love how my institution makes random accreditation-jeopardizing decisions and then tells faculty to “work with the students” to minimize the impacts. I can’t tell if it’s a sadist or a crackhead writing our policy. 

Today has been a smoking pile of fuckshit. But it would really cheer me up if they would make with McConnell‘s corpse already. 

Hey everyone, happy Mitch Day!

My LinkedIn has had a ton of searches from one geographical region recently, and it turns out that someone in the same industry as I, with the same full name, is under investigation there for a political assassination. Ummmm, not it. I plead the Shaggy.

I have written about 60 pages in the last week. I’ve had weeks with more, obviously, but my wrists, eyes, ass, and motivation all tell me it’s time to wrap this up.

I’m at the agitated phase of writing, where all the words are fermented and bubbling around under my skin, and if anything external brushes against them they’ll explode out in self-defense.

Okay, dumb question, but would my lettuce be cheaper if I got the one without the parasites? Because I really don’t need to pay extra for parasites and groceries are crazy lately.

Holy hell, this is Vietnamese food but I’d swear a Thai chef was in the kitchen because my mouth just blew off

USPS phone assistance line is sooooooooo not accessible if you’re visually impaired. Why is there no option to speak a tracking number and instead you have to enter it on the keypad? My computer could have read the number aloud, but nope.

Fox News insists racism doesn't exist, unless a Black actor plays a white character

You ever realize something so painfully obvious it hurts? Because I just did, and damn. My kid is out doing an errand. He said he’d go to a drive through. It’s one I refuse to use because it is so difficult for me to navigate. Hs has no problem with it. Spouse has no problem. It’s just me. But…

I love my weather apps, but my weather has flash flooding, my parents have a tornado watch, my eldest has severe thunderstorms, and where middle is moving is on fire. I love being well informed that everything is terrifying because we fucked it all up.

I saw that J. D. and Usha were saying that they decided to have another child after Erika said she wished she had another baby, and dammmn Usha, but still, you know he’s got more sperm, right?

As stated, it will be a cold day in hell befo… okay, fine, let me check. And the answer is still no; Mitch says it’s quite warm.

Husband just walked in quietly and then was surprised. He thought I was on the phone. No, the cat was meowing and I was answering. That’s how conversations work, my guy. I’m not going to ignore her when she obviously has stuff to process.
