Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin O’Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, “Obama: Dems need to avoid scolding and ‘virtue-signaling.’” The post quotes O’Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

illustration of a cute brown bear in yellow wizards clothing holding its arms out over a bubbling black cauldron filled with soup. around the bear and cauldron float pieces of corn, broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, tomato, peas, pepper, and spinach. magical sparkles are also around the floating food, so you know it's magical. under the cauldron are the words "cooking is magic"

The law isn’t necessarily a moral compass.

Come on in to the internet's hottest club: Heated Rivalry. It. Has. Everything. Chiseled jawlines, panting, hockey sweat, muscles, and that thing where two people who think they're not allowed to be in love suddenly want nothing more than to lick each other from head to toe. It's racy and romantic; intense and intimate; addictive and attractive as all hell. So many conversations about this series include, "Oh, but it's much richer than you think," and yes, that is true, and I have caught myself giving that caveat as well. Because it is! But you know what? Who cares if it weren't? It doesn't have to be! It doesn't need to be anything more than Hot Horny People Catching Feelings; it's still worthy entertainment and escapism. The fact that it does have extra layers is a bonus but not a prerequisite. Romance as a genre is so often placed at the bottom of the totem pole automatically, so much so that people are conditioned to defend their interest rather than celebrate it in uncomplicated bliss the same way people fete other novels. No one is asking readers to explain why they're reading sweeping historical sagas, or books about men and their middle-aged masturbatory ennui and creeping depression, so why should anyone have to justify wanting to immerse themselves in love and lust and pleasure? And why does the world play into the notion that the only people enjoying this must be horny and lonely? Screw that. Pun intended. Go read the newsletter and subscribe! #heatedrivalry

Really really feeling this, from the newsletter over at GoFugYourself about #heatedrivarly

Doodle of circus filled with monkeys! The text reads “I’m quite fond of this circus and its monkeys”

Doodle time! Yay!

I... I'm not sure that's treading on yourself 😏

I'm pretty sure you know this but when I like posts like this I mean that I'm sending you love 🫂

Shocker.

Kinda unsurprising cuz he grew up semi old money. His mom is a Vanderbilt & he went to private school.
On the otherhand, I remember on one of those ancestry tv shows, he had no sympathy for his murdered slave master of an ancestor & was even pleased that he was killed by a rebellious slave

Plenty more Blåhaj in the sea, Penny 🫂

SOUP! 😍

In the Name of Venus

illustration of a cute brown mama bear holding a grocery bag with carrots, bread, and berries escorting a cute brown baby bear who looks on in awe at a snail. they walk down a sidewalk that has a flowering bush in a planter and a dandelion growing from the cracks of the sidewalk. the mama bear holds the baby bears hands because you know the second she isn't paying attention, that kid will be running off to the snail

sometimes when you are running errands you just see cool things, you know?

Some days I just really miss the LiveJournal and MySpace days

The re-emergence of phrenology, especially in the 21st century, was NOT on my bingo card. I remember first learning about it in a science for non-majors course in uni YEARS ago. Our whole class thought it was, crazy, ridiculous, & almost unimaginable for it to have ever been a "respected science."

This is gonna be me this weekend! 😍
