My 4-year/old just learned about the concept of infinity and is now throwing a tantrum over it. “It’s weird! I don’t like it. I just want numbers to stop!”

I think seeing someone’s handwriting is very intimate. I like how thebofy has to mold in its entirety to adapt around a writing device that will communicate your thoughts and feelings. I fucking love it.

I was so pissed last night, watching viral videos claim that Blanche promised to pass a national abortion ban. That's not true, and it's not helpful. Because what he actually said is super dangerous, but getting buried

No, Todd Blanche Didn't Promise a National Abortion Ban—But He Did Vow Something Else

Here's the real threat getting buried under panicked headlines

A conference and a hotel that smells like moisture has been trying to evaporate off the carpets since the Carter administration and finalize its natural course of existence.

Genuinely want to know how jobs this cool existed before I even had a chance. Someone calling in about Zelda and I’m so here for it. 🗡️✨

“there's no place that I could be without you honestly…” 2003 was pretty great music wise. ✨✨✨ youtu.be/NLPgz9K4D20?...

Okay, I am going to tell a little story. It's one I have saved for the last couple years, almost nobody knows about it. But it lives in my heart. I don't know how others will feel about it, maybe something, maybe nothing. It's about the Uncanny X-Men. 1/

A shallow comment perhaps and a bit of a broken record but really, we’re all going to die and I wish more of us took care of ourselves without torturing every bit of our bodies. I have things to say and it’s going to rattle you. I love me the artsy folks with sexy hands that will eat a pastry. ✨✨✨

It’s unreal how much I love tlacuaches (possums). Like, they are unreasonably adorable AND immune to rabies?! I want them all. 🥹 A passel, if you will.

While Miller’s abuse, Clancy’s trial, and Smith’s tradwife back-pedaling may seem like very different stories, they’re all connected by one common thread: the outraged response from women, especially mothers.

Nara Smith, Lindsay Clancy, Max Miller—and Our National Reckoning on Motherhood

We've reached a tipping point

"As any tradwife will tell you, their whole shtick is that the husband is the breadwinner while the wife is the homemaker. But this is deeply misleading as many of the most popular tradwives are entrepreneurs who are making some serious cash via their channel..."

Nara Smith, infamous trad wife influencer, went on Call Her Daddy to distance herself from the trend that built her brand. Well, we're here to remind you about all the ways Nara Smith and other trad wife creators are perpetuating a dangerous narrative about women's roles.

Like, so very tired. I’m tired of realizing how little they understand the cosmology of our rage. The genesis happens to all of us. The context is RIGHT THERE.

I’m tired of men writing comics/comic book character stories about female rage.

I never have to think too hard between chosing a bear or a man. I will always choose the bear. Always. Dostoevsky said it best:

It feels very autumnal this morning: dark skies amplifying the shades of green in the trees, the wind has been incessantly chatty, and I’m feeling very sleepy. A much needed day off since I am working tonight. Goodnight 🍂☕️🍂

I write to make sense of things, some are extremely traumatic. Timelines are rarely a linear event (ironic). But I also wrote about good things; gentle loving things like my mother getting tickets for a limited screening of “The Cure” when I was in 7th grade because she knew I loved Brad Renfro.

JFC. I’ll be 43 soon and this song still makes me jump around because this is so 1995 coded and although some things were absolute shite, a lot of things from my childhood were pretty fucking rad, like music. Long live MTV. ✨🤘🏼 youtu.be/eYI99xuI9CM?...

The GOP wants to repeal no-fault divorce & women's right to vote so that violent misogynists like Max Miller can un-person us fully: they want to own women, as rape toys & punching bags. We're the majority of the population. We already have fewer rights to bodily protection than corpses & animals.

Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

Like, I know I appreciate my cartoons and my anime (to the point of being ferociously loyal to characters that are obviously not real 😂) but this episode really fucking got me.

1. Yes, I read the Forword of any body of work. 2. Yes, I actively look for words I don’t know. Then I look up how to pronounce it because English be a fucking trickster and likes to play games. 3. Can’t believe people still sleep on E.B. White’s essays.

You know… I don’t know how I feel about the fashion choices some of these warriors are making. 🍑

Crunchyroll making suggestions again and I don’t even have the adequate snackies for this.

You people are maniacs. But I might have to frame this one

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

It’s my birthday month! 🌻✨

You cannot watch that scene of Maleficent waking up with her wings ripped off HER BODY by someone she trusted, and not have a visceral reaction. That scene is engraved in my mind because I know you know what that metaphor stands for.
