while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

If you've never gotten a chance to do one, might I recommend chill thanksgiving?
You stay home. You eat whatever you want. You do whatever you want.
Zero arguments with racist relatives, zero tech support conversations, and you don't have to explain that LGBTQ+ people deserve rights, Aunt Sheryl.

Hey, if you're dreading the holiday season due to mental health, just a quick reminder: you're not required to show up to every family event. You're not required to stay.

Friendly reminder that dishwashers made after 1995 or so are so water and energy efficient that even if you ran them twice fully loaded it would still use less water than handwashing the same load.
So many "green" things feel like sacrifices. Dishwashers are not one of them.

Internet safety PSA: remember that sometimes scammers will scrape photos and names and impersonate your loved ones. DO NOT send money online, avoid clicking suspicious links, and if your Great Aunt suddenly starts messaging like a gen-z youngster, it's probably a scam.

It is a beautiful morning. Our communities worked hard to protect each other all over the country with our votes.
Right now, we celebrate, enjoy the moment, and look towards the future with hope that we can keep making things better.

Once the politicians we want are elected that’s when it’s time to hold them to their campaign promises and not make excuses on some Stan shit, so that they remember who they work for. No kings 😉

I'm ready for apologies from pundits and politicians who showed their bigoted asses and suggested we needed to abandon trans people in order to win.
looks like "fairness in girls' sports" wasn't the unbeatable wedge issue you thought it was, was it? kinda makes you look like a dumbass, huh?
