Ah, memories.
I never realized I had childhood religious trauma until I had my own child and found myself having the overwhelming urge to fling my body between her and religious talk like a bodyguard taking a bullet.
Fun times.

Got sucked into the side of TikTok commenting on the trend in American evangelicalism right now—where there’s a growing belief that that the rapture will happen this Tuesday—September 23rd

Got my Covid and flu shots today. Threw in an MMR booster, too. (Titers showed I still have measles antibodies, but none for mumps. Those aren’t going around YET but why wait?).
Gonna feel like garbage tomorrow, but hey, anytime you can give RFK Jr a middle finger you should do it.

Not beating the “weird” allegations
On his podcast Tuesday, Charlie Kirk said he hoped that marriage might make Swift more conservative.
“Taylor Swift might go from a cat lady to a JD Vance supporter, and we should celebrate that…she should have more children than she has houses.”

Right-wingers hope Taylor Swift will inspire a new generation of trad wives
But Swift herself once sang: "No deal / The 1950s shit they want from me."

“Faze/fazed/unfazed,” not “phase/phased/unphased.” That one drives me bananas when I see it.
Not to add to the discourse, but…
It’s ‘toe the line,’ not ‘tow the line.’
It’s ‘free rein,’ and not ‘free reign.’
It’s ‘eke out,’ not ‘eek out.’
It’s ‘sleight of hand,’ not ‘slight of hand.’
It's ‘Anchors aweigh,’ and not ‘Anchor's away!’

Just typed The End on the filthiest draft I’ve ever drafted. 81,259 words of pure garbage.
But it’s done. I wrote another book. Somehow. Despite everything.

JFC this is embarrassing.
Trump is posting his tariff "letters" to various countries on Truth Social, with Japan and South Korea posted so far. He also ends the letters with "thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Trump is now taking questions in front of the literal cages that will house migrants in DeSantis's new camp

Man do I feel this.
maybe it's a weakness in my character but I'll never be able to forgive my fellow Americans for any of this

The scare quotes around due process are a real look.
The VP seems to suggest a suspension of due process rights to tackle illegal immigration. This would be in line with El Salvador’s Bukele but not the U.S. Supreme Court

This is galaxy brain bullshit and the Dem lawmaker who said it should be hounded out of office. Shrugging while Trump destroys bedrock law is disqualifying.
