I’m kind of enjoying listening to the financial management sponsors on @npr.org pivot their messaging to “What if we redefine wealth to mean something other than money…”

It says a lot about how they are feeling right now.

Concerning, sure. But also kinda funny.

Again, and as is ever. Not a trans person. Not a drag queen. An ultra conservative cis white man.

Gaze into the face of the person you truly need to protect your children from.

And for the sake of those children, LEARN.

So let me get this straight. Trump will require the US military to lower their standards for promotion in order to accommodate his pick for Chairman of the Joint Chiefs? After firing the previous guy because he *might* have been a “DEI hire?”

So listening to audio of Trump signing his executive order fest last night, giddy as a teenager on their first date and asking his handlers to read and explain each one, I’m left with a deep seated fear that he had no idea what he was signing at all. Not a clue. Just “ooh that’s a big one!”

Is this really the vibe that BCBS is going with right now? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love ensemble shows, I really do. But making mic plots and DCA assignments when 3/4 of the cast are changing characters each scene is a mood.

Especially when half the characters in the scene are just "Man" or "Dancer" or "Woman with Hat."

I'm looking at you, Neil Simon.
