When I am old and gray, I will remember the Week 18 Browns-Ravens game as the game Michael Pierce got his first INT.

Reading diversely is a goal I’m working on—my 2024 stats show I can do better. POC, queer, and disabled authors deserve more love. Try a book by an author or protagonist who doesn’t look like you—every genre, every vibe. Also, backlist books deserve better! Keep them alive!

I get wanting to do more, but calling reps from out of state *really* does not help & often backfires. See the image from @celestepewter.bsky.social on why.
Using @resist.bot you can create a petition & share it so everyone can use it. The best is to find local groups or orgs & volunteer to help

“Their deportation could be a death sentence. They live with a lot of anxiety, usually in the form of PTSD.”
The Deep Roots of Deportation
In a divided political climate, many now hold their breath, waiting to see if deportation rhetoric becomes reality.

Finally watched "Homicide: The Movie" after finishing the series. Visibly cringed every time a character referred to the city as "Balto" (Munch and Bolander: 'well, we're back in Balto')...my fellow Baltimoreans, that was never a thing, right? #HLOTS

Now is an excellent time to get (re)acquainted with Resistbot. I’m an epidemiologist who has worked in public health research for 20 years. RFK jr is a dangerously unqualified person who is openly threatening our lives and liberty. I encourage you to speak out against his nomination.

Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
