Seems like a good day to revisit why I chose this screen name a little over seven years ago. A 🧵
It was about a week after Jamal Khashoggi was murdered, and the first time (that I know of) that Trump was asked about it.

Some of the best movies ever made were by Rob Reiner. They made us laugh and think: The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men. And he was a force on screen as well in All in the Family and so many films.
What a tragic loss. Words fail with news like this.

The human cost of Trump's gutting of USAID: By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for weeks. He bundled her into a canoe & paddled toward the nearest hospital, 8 hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died.

Billie Eilish’s isolated vocals for “Ocean Eyes” are stunning — soft, airy, and so precise they barely feel real. Hearing them on their own shows just how much magic was there from the very beginning. zurl.co/0wxKs

I’m shocked the guy who hired undocumented immigrants (Polish laborers) w/no safety equipment and paid them $4 an hour in 1980 (then stiffed them) to tear down Bonwit Teller (including art deco friezes promised to the MET) is demolishing the East Wing of White House w/bad intent.

"Exhaustion is a strategy. Distraction is a strategy. Confusion is a strategy. And while we’ve been caught up in the noise, Trump has been moving forward with something far more dangerous than the daily scandals: a long-term plan to rig the system so he never loses power again.”

Love Cheryl for saying this and how she is framing this harassment happening at WNBA games. #WNBA
Coach Reeve made a point during media availability after today’s practice to address the issue of the recent trend of sex toys being thrown onto the court during WNBA games.
I didn’t have my camera rolling, but here’s the soundbyte.

American politics is so fucking high stakes right now that every citizen is watching the Wisconsin Supreme Court election like it’s the Super Bowl and Corey Booker is the new Kendrick with his 25 hour long halftime show. Remember when politics were boring (pre-2000)?
