I think the hottest thing that's ever been said into my ear is "Bluetooth connected, battery full" because I know what's coming next. Books. It's books.

Can’t find a way to write this that doesn’t sound like a twee bromide but genuinely, if your end of year review is that you survived painful things happening in your life & the world, stayed empathetic in an inhospitable environment & treated yourself & others decently then that’s achievement enough

The Trump administration has scrapped a plan to mint quarters to honor the abolition of slavery, women's suffrage, and the Civil Rights Movement.
Instead, the Trump administration plans to issue a $1 coin with Donald Trump’s face on it.

Very rare 'Tall White Auroras' like never before spotted in the night skies of Senja, Norway last night👀 🌌✨
These ghostly white auroras are super rare and occur under very extreme circumstances.

I must not have a take on the insane rage bait. Having a take on the insane rage bait is the mind-killer. Having a take on the insane rage bait is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the insane rage bait. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone

Autism isn't a choice.
If someone's autism causes them to do things that annoy you, it's not because they *want* to annoy you or don't care that they are (if they're even aware of it in the first place).
It's because they have a literal disability.

A new study reveals that gender-affirming care for transgender kids and young adults likely lowers rates of suicidality among those populations. The study found that suicide rates among all the youth who were studied dropped by over 67%.

I hope nondisabled people are listening to disabled people as we’ve discussed the mass hemorrhaging of accessible jobs, layoffs over accommodations and spike of tools used to screen out disabled employees in the past few years (which ends survival possibilities for us)

I dunno, fellas. Seems to me like it might be time to stop calling traumatized people “dramatic” and recognize that this is an era for heroism, because wisdom doesn’t have to be delivered calmly in order to be wise

What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

As a former R, I can attest to the fact that this really happens. Nothing like lying to your kids to make sure they're confused and angry for the rest of their lives.
