Some mornings you wake up, see that Kari Lake doxxed voters and committed a felony by posting their signatures, and realize

Hey. It’s gonna be a great day

@shawnwegner This POS needs to go! But the longer McCarthy the Clown keeps him, the more unqualified he looks!

I find it odd that many people will count calories, exercise, or adopt diets to improve their health, but they refuse to wear a mask. Given what is known about the acute and chronic risks of #COVID19, I can't imagine an easier change with a greater impact on short- and long-term health than wearing a mask in crowds--concerts, conferences, mass transit, etc. Why go to effort to extend your life at the end and ignore the significant risk of acute illness or disability this year?

When I think about why we are slow walking the weapons Ukraine needs to stop Putin's murder, It's the same politics that allows us to tolerate multiple mass shootings every year to include the murder of school kids.

The GOP is wearing little assault weapon pins on their lapels in the House.

These people are fucking despicable.

Honestly, it don't matter what Desantis bans. They never taught us the truth at any point in THEIR schools anyway. Fuck his bans.

It's your responsibility to build the library your kids need in your house. Buy your own books. We know our history and don't require their approval to teach OR learn it. You don't have to force it on the young. Just put it there. Their curiosity will win out.

One thing I'll say for the wave of Republican book-banning that's going on right now -- it's certainly making books seem powerful and *significant*

Book-banning is a terrible way to have the public re-realize the catalytic effect a good book can have on its readers

A small library in rural Vermont needs our help. Due to an administrative error, the library missed out in its usual annual funding. With a very modest financial goal, even a small donation will go far to help. Information on the GoFundMe and other ways to help here: lithub.com/reader-mailbag-this

We can end the pandemic by investing in infrastructure to clean indoor air and developing vaccines that are more effective at reducing #COVID spread. In the meantime, masks are one of the most effective tools we have to make society accessible to everyone. Use them!

teacher: what does “agnostic” mean?

me: I don’t know

teacher: correct! how about “ambivalent”?

me: *shrug*

teacher: yes! how about “nihilistic”?

me: what difference does any of this make?

teacher: amazing

@antimagaglitterbomb I’m sick of the media dragging the Biden issue our gleefully while they buried every trump story within a week

Why hasn’t the FBI searched the rest of Trump’s properties and homes?
