in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

After the 15th inning it is time to replace one player with a dog until someone wins or it's all dogs.

I just got off a call with a group of young people who were seeking some guidance for a project they have launched in their community. Folks, I can tell you that we are blessed in this generation. They are smart and importantly so damn compassionate. ALSO, they know more than we did at their age.

An extremely rough day for Edgewater in Chicago. ICE activity near schools. People kidnapped while working in yards, standing on hiring corners. So many rapid responders biking, walking, driving, whistles around necks, trying to protect their neighbors, but up against such well-funded forces.

I googled “patron saint of frogs” for a bit and then immediately abandoned the bit because I would so much rather actually talk about St. Ulphia the 8th century hermit who cursed her local frogs for keeping her up at night and making her sleep through church

Her hermitage was located in a marshy wetland, inhabited by frogs whose loud croaking kept her up all night. One day, she was so tired that she slept through when Domitius knocked at her door, and he, thinking she had already gone on ahead, left without her. Legend states that Ulphia placed the frogs in the area around her under interdict as a result of their loud croaking, which kept her awake at nights.
A 19th century hagiographer noted that the frogs in the area around the oratory of Saint Ulphia were, indeed, very quiet. However, if these frogs were taken elsewhere, they became boisterous once again.
At the end of her life, she formed and directed a community of religious women at Amiens.
In iconography, she is depicted as a young nun seated in prayer on a rock with a frog in the pool near her.

For some context the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly report in addition to being just a good read, to quote wikipedia, "is the main vehicle for publishing public health information and recommendations that have been received by the CDC from state health departments. "

Tonight there is a game that is going on longer than games can go on and also it's either very exciting if very boring or very nerve-wracking and also maybe someone failed to catch a ball and idk if it was a player or some rich person we hate

I love that I have finally hit a sufficient number of mutuals who post frequently about sports that I get to make up elaborate stories where I try to piece all of the vague & mysterious posts into a coherent narrative.

people are going to post AI slop...sometimes they just do not realize it at the time and have the good graces to delete it

but if they are told and keep posting it your safest action is just to block them because they will continue to spread it

Once again, if your library has Hoopla, check to see if their plan includes TV shows and movies. If so, you'll have access to Acorn TV, MHz Choice, AMC and BritBox shows and more.

Jenét Morrow @jenetallday.bsky.social · Feb 6

On a budget? A reminder to check to see if you have access to Kanopy and Hoopla through your library. Hoopla has ebooks, music, movies and TV shows. A lot of AMC and Acorn TV shows on that platform. And Kanopy has a kids section with unlimited "borrows". #library
