The Biden administration has carved out a loophole for itself so the TikTok ban won't apply to certain government staff, according to a document signed by Secretary of State Blinken and leaked to me:

This Speaker vote should remind all of us that literally nothing Republicans try to do will be easy, or a foregone conclusion. And often, they are going to have to come to Democrats to enact anything at all. We have lost power but we are not powerless.

Last night I finished Mirrored Heavens and if you STILL aren’t reading Rebecca Roanhorse what are you doing?????? That was such a satisfying end to an epic fantasy series and the relationship between gods, magic, and man is one that I keep thinking about.

It’s reading round-up time! Even with some long and complicated health issues that made reading difficult this year, I (mostly) read some incredible books this year and wanted to share my highlights!

My favorite personal fact about Jimmy Carter is that he visited my uncle’s homes multiple times over the years after they left the White House and my uncle moved around, but *I* have never visited any of my uncle’s homes

I am not good at many household chores or fixes but if there is one thing I can do it’s get an unimaginable stain out of any material and that really comes in handy when you spill coffee all over the furniture
