All of this comes from an essay by the late Howard Zinn from 2005 titled, “Don’t Despair about the Supreme Court” in which he reminds us that we only ever get free by organizing and fighting.

The doctor emphasized multiple times that I cannot ever do CrossFit. Which will forever be my excuse - "Oh I would do CrossFit but my doctor forbids it. Yes, it's soooo disappointing, whatever shall I do?"

My blocks range from "you legit seem like a miserable ass who should never interact with other people" to "I'm having a bad day and find you annoying" and everything in between. So I always laugh when I see people commenting on why (they think) they were blocked.

First neurosurgery consult. Have more information about the disease. Need to have a different test before they can say if I need brain surgery now or can monitor the progression until it's necessary. So I wait with a little bit more room to breathe.

I just finished binge watching S2 of Star Trek: Prodigy. I already thought S1 was one of the best Trek shows of the new era. S2 makes Prodigy one of the best Trek shows ever made. It has such heart, such great writing, and perfectly ties into the new & old era of Trek.

One of the weirdest/funniest bits in Lessons in Chemistry was everyone reactions to one of the main characters jogging every day. It had never occurred to me before that there was ever a time jogging-as-exercise hadn't been a thing.

If you're a member of a political party (i.e. a registered voter), and you want to communicate something important to your party's leadership, reaching out to any federal electeds who are also members of your party (congress, senate) or any statewide official (governor) is a way to communicate

I have friends in a few Broadway shows. They avoid cancelling shows at all costs – the absurd stories I've heard about having to cover when so many actors are out at the same time...it's obscene.

We splurged to have a local woodworker build a new master closet in our not-at-all luxurious house. It was worth every penny (none of the mass market options come close in quality) and it was a whole lot of pennies.

I was going to keep my great aunt Leona’s cedar chest but didn’t know where we would put it or how to move it.
I’m a bit heartbroken to see they’re selling it for $75 with a suggestion of that people COULD PAINT IT NO WTF. (Someone please rescue this.)

I am reading Hannah Arendt right now and she makes this point. Over and over. With a freakin hammer. There are a LOT OF PEOPLE in the world very eager to pick a group and blame it for their problems, esp when they don't have a strong grasp of where those problems really come from.

Want to make sure we have our legal/medical ducks in a row as much as possible before I have surgery. Does anyone know who I should start with to talk about that stuff? My guess is the attorney who did our living wills.

Ppl are retweeting this and I just want to add that faxing is THE most annoying thing to do to your representatives. There are websites where you can fax for a small fee and those machines are LOUD and then at the very least they have to deal with all the print outs.

Being really annoying is praxis. Phone, email, fax, show up in person if that’s an option. Just don’t let up until you’re too irritating to ignore.

Maybe we're focused on diffferent things? Elected Dems are supporting mask bans. So the outcome is there's much bigger consequences for masking and the left is less likely to show up to protests in a safe way (or at all).

It's a bit of a distinction without a difference when the end result is "Dems support mask bans." Whatever the reason people are actively discouraged from masking.
