Delightful, delicious, delovely. 💙💙
Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains.
Half of my heart is on his way to Europe with a university history class. 💙✈️🇵🇱
Not gonna lie, my heart catches every time I see my dead brother’s name. And lately, that’s been often thanks to the new film “Lorne” about SNL’s Michaels. My Lorne died in 1990, when he was just 20 and I was 21. I wish he were live, from any city. I miss him so much.
I mostly commute via public transit, but when I drive, the most direct path to my preferred parking passes both ICE and a health clinic often picketed by gross older white dudes who harass the women going inside. The rage consumes me.
“Epstein scandal leaves some young Trump voters feeling betrayed; Drawn to Trump for his pledge to take down the political elite, some of his young constituents say he has failed them.” By 2024, only a world class moron believed *anything* he said. You were not betrayed - you were conned.
I work near an ICE office in Philadelphia. Today I passed by on my way to meet a friend for lunch and the sidewalk outside was packed with big black SUVs with black-tinted windows. And no license plates. It was one of the creepiest, most malevolent things I’ve ever seen.
Leon Botstein, longtime president of both @bardcollege.bsky.social and my own alma mater, Simon’s Rock College - where the average first year student is just 16 - is utterly dishonest and disgraceful. He must immediately resign or be removed by the Board of Trustees.
We’ve had no ice (the good kind) since our fridge broke last month. We are all pleased it’s been replaced, especially this guy. #GeneralKenobiTheCorgi #CorgiCrew #DogsOfBluesky
Steel cut oats with tahini and grapefruit sounds so colossally unappealing it reaffirms my long-ago decision to block the Wall Street Journal from my newsfeed.
Time for my annual take on Philadelphia’s Mummers Parade: the offensive wench brigades and the too often offensive, largely unfunny “comics” have to go. Give me a full day of string bands and some fancies and I’ll be happy.
I got a dead refrigerator and a bad case of RSV for Chanukah. Guess I’m glad it wasn’t flu or COVID, but it still sucked.
It’s that time of year again: President Obama just shared the books, music, and movies that resonated with him in 2025! Nobody will ever care about Trump’s. Because he’s a garbage person with garbage taste.
Because the only thing more confusing than when the holiday is, is how to spell it, I bring you this, the only thing I will ever repost from Xitter.
Truth. And yet, when I saw these in my local Giant supermarket this morning? I bought them.
Because I start losing track of the date when I’m not working, I am always one day late in commemorating the November 28, 2020 gotcha day of Mr. Pups. #GeneralKenobiTheCorgi #CorgiCrew
Somepuppy was impeccably behaved throughout dinner! No begging, no barking, just companionable Corging. A+, no notes! #GeneralKenobiTheCorgi #CorgiCrew
In our house, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is always Best in Show! #GeneralKenobiTheCorgi #CorgiCrew #DogShow #NationalDogShow
I could not tell you how many times I experienced this because I stopped counting after far too many.
