Consider this in light of the plan to cut SNAP/WIC

I genuinely miss the person I was before I saw this happen in real time

This session of kitten stalking practice is brought to you by Squatty Potty 😂

subway employee telling me not to tip because they don't even go to her has me side-eyeing the entire company now

freaked out about everything right now, from my job to the country. luckily I have a cat.

This. Thanks @raygunsite.com !

Fuck this country. Literally the queerest branch of the military

Now expecting Hormona Lisa to come out as trans

why do conservatives like these photographs of their Great White Leaders looking so constipated? Is that supposed to look like they're tough instead of not getting any fibre?

I've only raised $80... 😢 if you $5 to pit on this it would mean so much.

For anxious autistic people, punishments only feed their anxiety & stress as they are already anxious, which is why they are behaving the way they are. "Giving a choice, even “illusive” choice, is better than making demands." By @autsciperson.bsky.social: autisticscienceperson.com/2018/11/11/a...

This is very, very bad. Things are going to get so much worse than they are now. [I am a higher ed lawyer.]

okay yall are recommending this one heavy! imma have to check it out.

I try to live my life so Donald Trump will never congratulate me. Especially after I licked his boots when he was racist & called me Palestinian like that's inherently a bad thing. I may not have much to my name, but unlike Schumer, Donald Trump does not congratulate me for advancing his agenda.

I hate how kitchen sink this season finale is.

Y'all... The Weeknd be warbling. I genuinely DO NOT GET IT. I'm in a store and his version of "I don't want to know" is playing, and if I were Mario Winans I'd be offended.

A reality show parody where Colin the Energy Vampire from What We Do In The Shadows is on a reality show, or one of those "keep your hand on the car for three days" things which may or may not actually exist

More than any dog breed I’ve ever seen, ridgebacks instinctively move as a single unit—the longer they live in a close pack together, the more pronounced this behavior becomes. Once you notice it, you see it again everywhere. ☺️

Spring is for bike dates 🚲

I haven’t cried all week, but her asking him “habibi how will i call you?” in Arabic has me sobbing. Fuck every human who did this. Fuck them all.

World leaders are actually allowed to hate each other & still sit down to the table of diplomacy. You actually don't have to exile a diplomat from another country that hates you. It makes things things worse. Just a clarifier.

By all means ignore the rule of law, attempt a coup, deport US citizens and decimate thousands of livelihoods whilst tanking the economy tho, oh and place an unelected nazi sympathiser at the head of government. All of that is lols.

Secretary Mayor Pete needs to be honing and increasing his outreach to the Black Community NOW. ProTip.

The risk here is that you just end up radicalized rightward.

Morrison writes motherhood like no one else: she was frightened by the thought of having a baby once more. Needing to be good enough, alert enough, strong enough, that caring—again. Having to stay alive just that much longer. O Lord, she thought, deliver me. Unless carefree, motherlove was a killer

Every American should see the Pacific Ocean at least once

And on THAT note, ima stay off of here. Love those of you who rock with me tho. See yall after retrograde ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽

Here's another harbinger of tragedies to come. Few forces in human history have been responsible for as much human suffering as capitalism & colonialism.

How Trump's administration gone dismantle the department of education then say, but we'll still be making everybody pay those loans back & we're not even taking your income into consideration! That's the part of the department we're gonna make sure sticks around. A shell of the department.

I've had a lovely time in fellowship, and am free for a little bit before I dig into these edits. It's Black Midwives Day, AMA.

This little pup has been obsessed with me all evening, as if I will go away for good if he doesn’t keep trying to shag my shin. It’s very tiresome but also makes me worried he’s not ok

Can anyone translate this?

A friend just sent - shared without comment 👀

These post from the past are powerful, when we're aware of the tragedies they foreshadow.

Are there any readings that y'all would suggest on the topic of federalism under autocracy? #polisky

My 8 year old workhouse laptop is suddenly out of hard drive space because of absolute bloat from the last Windows update. Just went through and deleted something like 20 apps.

yay! get yours at shop.franchesca.net

Last call, Educators! Tomorrow, March 15, join us for a special Educator Workshop on Prehistoric Preservation! Learn about the unique ways fossils at the #TarPits are preserved and how our processes compare to others across the world: bit.ly/LBTPEW0315

En Vogue sold 20 million records

Everyone wants to Zero Hour without acknowledgement of the 23:59:59 Before and no signal of change So I mean you get what you get

Free Mahmoud Khalil! There is no other way to put it: Mahmoud Khalil’s illegal detention at the hands of the Trump administration is horrific.

Everyone is getting exactly what the coted for and what they planned for and paid for And will keep getting @schumer.senate.gov and Gillebrand SHOULD come home to New York to the same crowds Jeffries has been dealing with but won’t and everyone will pretend it’s “different”

Sort of like the McCarthy era

I went to take a video of Boone ignoring me & she actually came when I called her? this video is proof cats just do the opposite of what you want them to do.

Anyway - anybody else have an issue with me can just block me. 💜 don’t be a loser making videos about a situation that don’t involve you lol.

Goodnight from Tony Judd, trying to explain to PC Booth that he was only baring his bottom in public due to being bewitched. Goodnight from Frances Elder, wondering what exactly is being chanted in the driftwood chapel of the Congregation of The Waves. Goodnight from Hookland.

You know what none of us down here needed? A weekend-long intense band of weather with very real possibility of tornadic activity across most of the south.

That post loss clarity...

I know there are a million more important things happening in the world. But I've had this line stuck in my head for more than 24 hours - & even though it's from one of the greatest story songs of ALL time - it's a little too haunting to have it on repeat! "Harry.... keep the change!" 🤣😭 #IYKYK

No Dungeons & Dragons ????

Fuuuuuuuuuuucccccckkkkkk.

There is no “loyal opposition” to fascist regimes. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... And when you enable fascist governance, guess what that makes you?

I'm so fascinated by what is going on in Syria. Strange that Syrians are writing a new constitution while we are shredding ours. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/14/w...

It was coffee shops open then

Serious question. Do you know that actual people live here? Have any of you who don’t live here given any thought as to whether we should have rights? Seems not to cross y’alls minds much.

Look at you … raising what could have been a whipped coffee

I made some book shelves with reclaimed wood

This is a very Trump II: Dictator Bugaloo headline.

Used to remember creating a mental map of "where not to run with Charlie" based on the numbers of Trump flags, "Don't Step on Me" flags and "Back the Blue" flags I saw when I lived in Oklahoma.

Please share and give if you can

I see folks saying that the Dems aren't an opposition party, which is true to an extent, but I think that it's more accurate to say they aren't an insurgency party. There are still too many Dems who are trying to govern like the GOP is going to act in good faith & that institutions havent collapsed.

if you’ve never been to Columbia, it’s hard to describe the feeling when you get off the subway & see this fenced off castle campus up on a hill. it reeks of money & exclusivity.

Y’all was really having babies in that pandemic….

I suspect the sight of a young Palestinian protester being chided for resisting arrest, then kidnapped into an unmarked car by plainclothes goons who didn’t produce a warrant, portends something sinister: vigilantes (ie white guys w no badge, warrant or govt car) disappearing more dissidents

@schatz.bsky.social calls himself a "climate hawk" in his profile. What a traitorous dipshit.

So if you don't know, Dodgers & Cubs are playing in Tokyo next week. But before that they have exhibitions against *MY* Hanshin Tigers & the Yomiuri Giants. Starts tonight. 3/14 8PM PST: Cubs vs Hanshin 3/15 3AM PST: Dodgers vs Yomiuri 3/15 11PM PST: Dodgers vs Hanshin 3/16 3AM PST: Cubs vs Yomiuri

Neville Chamberlin ass muthafucker. 😡😡

Meet the Irish Elk (Megaloceros giganteus)! Once ranging from western Europe to China, it vanished during the Pleistocene some 10,000 yrs ago. Its antlers could reach an incredible spread of 13-ft- (4-m-)!

Call it the Town Hall Party.

Hahahaha indeed it is

I didn’t ask for this gift… but i will use it

Okay I'm done obsessively poring over the Schumer thing. I don't know if it's the existential terror or the neurodivergence. I'll be back to be annoying about something else perhaps during the Lakers game.

Last Call for Proposals! Tomorrow March 15th is the final day to submit a proposal for the 50th SSHA Conference in Chicago, November 20-23, 2025 at the Palmer House Hotel. Please consider submitting a paper or panel. If you have any questions, please contact [email protected] anytime.

In Senate, having the time of my life governing on behalf of a bunch of friends. They're just out of frame, responding to my donation texts.

NEW from Mahmoud Khalil’s wife, Noor: “This felt like a kidnapping because it was: Officers in plainclothes — who refused to show us a warrant, speak with our attorney, or even tell us their names — forced my husband into an unmarked car and took him” Says they didn’t know where he was for 38 hours

I finally watched "Conspiracy" on HBO Max. It's awful. So well done! But awful. I hope they all choke on their BAFTAs, and slip and impale themselves on their Golden Globes. Normal people with hideous views. The US version is "I'm a normal person! I just want to evacuate 11 million undocumented.

Me: this show has a lot of hot middle aged women! My mentions for some reason: "what about the men? We never get to see middle aged men on television!"

I have never been able to make out a single word but I must admit: every Tate McRae song I hear, I like.

What a great loss to our discipline! Hard Core changed the way I think about gender and film in so many important ways.

At a Soccer Showcase out of state just thinking about how insulting it is to think that these girls, who range in size & strength, are weak daffodils that ✌🏽need 2b protected✌🏽from other teen athletes their own age. Also? S/O to YOU if you want to be the asshole to call a kid out in the mid of a game

Wheel of Time night!

Got a free hour at a conference so yes, I am visiting a Black-owned bookstore in dc. Solid state has a great collection of books!

And... this is why my house is analog.

This. Primary all of them

People are going to show up and protest him as they should, and Chuckie, like @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, is soon going to be whining about the "left protesting him harder than they protest Trump" and crying sad tears pretty soon

"As we continue to expand Alexa’s capabilities with generative AI features that rely on the processing power of Amazon’s secure cloud, we have decided to no longer support this feature."

This was supposed to be Spring Break and I ended up working 60+ hours. And I'm STILL behind.
