On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

I love her but I change the station when that one comes on. Too much of a good thing.

While comparing and contrasting music festivals of Lollapalooza, Woodstock 98 and Lilith Fair, I was able to pinpoint a very specific look on the face of my teenager.

I call it “Oh no, they’re talking about the 90s again.”

Hey, @nytimes.com, please tell your crossword editors that No Bra Day is
Not a breast cancer awareness day.

This is the product of teenage boys trying to get teenage girls to take off their bras and you fell for it.

Subtweet without malice but in response to something that happens a lot:

When people point out that something is illegal or full on unconstitutional, it's not because this admin cares, it's because you should be aware.

We cannot let anything happen to Dolly Parton right now. I could not handle losing her so soon after Jane Goodall and with all the (gestures around) happening.

I didn’t correct a coworker who kept pronouncing colonel as colonial and she kept saying it like Colonial is an actual military title. Like “Colonial Sanders.”

When I finally looked up who she was, I just thought she was very meh. And I’d have to look her up again to remember what she looks like.

I think my husband of nearly 20 years might be emotionally attached. Not just to me, but to our offspring, too!

Grateful that I have a healthy emotional connection to the Super Bowl halftime show in that I really don’t care who plays it and I don’t expect it to be tailored to my personal tastes every single year.
