I fear that we'll continue to make difficult choices in the future. Like, Kibum and Taemin have concerts in Tokyo on the same day 😩

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

Gorgeous, spooky friend from my collection. No date/info.

Black and white photo of a black medium haired cat lying on grass, looking up at the camera. It looks like it has pure white eyes with no pupils but it’s just light blow out.

Printing presses kept their letters in cases.

Capital letters went in the upper case.
Smaller letters went in the lower case.

This is why we say ‘UPPER CASE’ and ‘lower case.’

Ok, but what did we call them before the invention of the printing press?

MAJUSCULE and minuscule.

not directing this at Greg but this is what BLM was all about. trying to explain to people that the guns they aim at Black folks just minding their own business will be turned on everyone if we dont course correct and here we are.

On the verge of a lot of potential Kent State situations out there. Be careful, friends.
