In this abysmal world, money is more important than people. Responsible for 600,000+ deaths in less than a year? Cool. Here’s a trillion dollars.

Squeaker (male on the left) and Katniss (his sister on the right)
Two cats sit inside at a sunny window with leaves and a few red flowers outside. The cat in front is a black tuxedo and he is sitting on a window sill. The second cat is gray and sits on a table just above the first cat. There are potted house plants on both sides of the grey cat. Both cats look up at the camera.

What made you rediscover a love for reading? And what was the book or series? I fell back in love with books after my second child was born premature and I needed something to help me stay awake at night while breastfeeding her. #books #booksky #booktok #preemie #nicu #fantasybooks #readingcommunity

This is the series that got me back into reading, too! It's young adult fantasy.

Excellent. I used to have a question on my Bio Anthro lab exams that I gave, which read "Dick Cheney goes hunting & shoots his friend Harry. Cheney feels bad & offers to donate blood to Harry. Cheney is type B & Harry is type O. Can Cheney donate to Harry?" I got some interesting answers to that one

They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer.

It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Great to chat with Lindsay Ellis for the @wsj.com about my new research on Quiet Quitting and work in the post-pandemic era for her piece, " American's Long Love/Hate Relationship with Work." www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...

My thoughts about the sizable cultural shift surrounding work in 🧵 below:
Americans’ Long Love/Hate Relationship With Work
From the Protestant work ethic to “rage quitting,” American attitudes about their work are driven by its promise of prosperity—and its precarious nature.
