Spring made a cameo in Maine today and as my husband and I were walking our dog, a kid came zooming by on his bike, singing at the top of his lungs to John Denver, which he had playing on speakers. That’s the kind of energy we all need right now.

Agreed. So crisp and easy to read.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the TaΓ­nos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

I signed this, too! This story is almost unbelievable.

Thank you for this. This was the sermon I needed to hear today.

So… a foreign country could just kidnap our president and charge him with crimes?

If we can capture another country's president, can another country come and capture ours? Asking for a friend.

The most annoying thing about Marjorie Taylor Greene being frequently correct these days is the implication that she's been privately working with logic all along but clearly tossed it aside in favor of her cynical climb up the ladder of a hate movement.

Anyway, yes, glad she's speaking out.

You still are. I wish I had a professor like you when I was in college.

I feel very strongly that the new stupid ballroom should *not* be torn down. I believe the next Dem President should, a week after taking office, have a Drag Queen Story Hour there, and then use it for a rotating exhibit of Black/Latin/East Asian/African/Queer art. We're going full troll, people.

Thanks! I was overthinking it πŸ™‚. I thought it was somehow strategic, but I couldn’t figure it out!

I know you are an expert. How come the catcher ran to third instead of throwing it to the third baseman?

I thought I was the only one who plays out these scenarios!

What's more embarrassing -- the Mets missing the postseason with a $338 million payroll, or the Yankees only getting a Wild Card slot with a $298 million payroll? I actually think it's the Yankees, because I hate them more.

Twitter: this is how men with huge balls fight. This is what masculinity looks like
