oh my gosh the Met gala is NOT the hunger games made into dystopian reality, people! it is an annual fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute! I, for one, am pleased that famous people pay too much for their tickets and peacock around so that a museum can remain funded

don’t let the twee little cultural trends of our time blind you to the fact that Millennials are broke, feral hustlers who learned all of our survival skills from Gen X (the forgotten generation hiding in an alley, being ignored, smoking cigs and listening to the good music)

my patient asked her husband to put on the labor playlist he made for jusssssst this moment and that’s how her tiny, gorgeous baby girl arrived earthside to the dulcet tones of Young MC’s “Bust A Move” god, what a fun couple, I loved them

In Alaska, there’s an annual sled dog race called the Iditarod where mushers race 938 miles from Anchorage to Nome with a team of 12-16 sled dogs. This year, there’s an indigenous woman competitor named Jody Potts-Joseph who decked her team out in beadwork for the big race kickoff and I’m obsessed 🤩

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way. www.investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/b...

Normal Americans: I am enjoying the artistic genius that is Green Day & Bad Bunny’s halftime show spectacular Effing Weirdos: I will only watch a shit sandwich in a bad wig sing and perform incompetently as is my PREFERENCE because it is mostly in ENGLISH

Too many people on Bluesky think that relentless expressions of despair are a sign of intellectual sophistication.

The thing about Catherine O’Hara is she is so hilarious and talented that I forgot she was mortal

I got so mad about what this administration is doing that I jumped on the treadmill and ran a mile as fast as I could. And I (usually) hate running with all my heart. I hate what’s happening more.

"A corrupt authoritarian president has been destroying his country for over a decade—and as of this weekend, he decided to invade Venezuela. But who is this political criminal?"

This Corrupt Dictator Has Been Running His Country into the Ground for Years, and Now He’s Invading Venezuela

It's winter. Make sure your carbon monoxide alarms are working!

The wisdom of Mr. Rogers is eternal:

it is your DUTY as a parent to be basic and cringe. if your child says "6-7" and you do not say, loud enough for their friends to hear, "8-9?", causing profound silence and intense discomfort, you are neglecting your responsibilities. being cool is for kids. your days of being laughed WITH are over

might be time for a little re-watch of my favorite comfort movie of all time… “Death of Stalin” ⚒️

me: 2025 was unnecessarily wild, man, I’m cautiously hopeful for a fresh start in 2026 2026: your authoritarian, pedo, wannabe king has just started a war for oil and to distract his base from his many documented crimes! me: i see 2026: oh, and measles are back 💓

I think 2026 should bring the feral and weird vibes. Following the rules isn’t exactly working, so let’s crack open a few of our hoarded, old formula Four Lokos and break shit.

this reminded me of the time my husband announced, out of the blue and with great passion, that he would (one distant day) open a Jar Jar Binks themed bar and name it… Bar Bar Drinks 🥂 bsky.app/profile/meme...

New Year, New Meesa Soup

A year ago, I became an L&D nurse. I didn’t know how to stop a hemorrhage or resuscitate a newborn, but I learned. I keep count of my deliveries with a bead jar: 🩷 for girls, 🩵 for boys, and 🤍 for my angel babies. I have 120+ deliveries under my belt and it’s just super cool to have a job I love 🫙

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

I’ve never bought an ornament so fast in my whole life 🎄 🧛 ✨

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

holy shit -- one of Trump's toadies just passed out and the White House event is brought to an abrupt end

My first protest was a union strike with my dad at age 10 (my future high school teacher got run over by a scab). I marched during different administrations, phone banked, attended meetings, etc…the online do-nothings complaining about protests not being perfect enough for THEIR liking are my enemy.

Some good, brave stuff happening

you’ll pardon me if I listen to the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology when they affirm that acetaminophen is safe for my pregnant patients over the opinion of a man who has zero expertise in, well, anything and sounds like a dying lawnmower when he speaks www.acog.org/news/news-re...

ACOG Affirms Safety Benefits Acetaminophen Pregnancy

"The data from numerous studies have shown that acetaminophen plays an important—and safe—role in the well-being of pregnant women."
