It's June 2020 and, for now, the threat of COVID-19 has passed. Shelter in place protocols have eased, allowing for gatherings of up to six people...
What are you doing, and who are you doing it with? :D
Right now, Pushing Daisies. I could *really* go for that kind of joyful, whimsical series right now

You can have ONE more season of any expired TV series. What are you picking?
I'm going Friday Night Lights.
So it turns out that screenshot of Charlie Kirk is doctored or at least unverifiable -- really sorry about spreading misinformation, folks, I'll delete the tweet.
I wonder if the feeling this insipres in me is the same feeling folks had in the 70s reading about savory gelatin dishes or ham-and-cheese wrapped bananas in cookbooks

Videos like these are just designed to raise my anxiety.

"During this era, significant long-standing structural and social problems within the United States were clearly exposed by a corrupt and incompetent leadership; the decades-long attack on social justice, respect of expertise, and government itself had come to its natural end."

It's 2100. You're an associate professor of history at Olympus Mons Polytechnic, and have been asked to write the "Trump Era" section for a new history textbook for 8th graders and their synthetic equivalents. What's the first sentence?

Last night my pooka lead our motley to the Garden of 1,000 Deaths, which included a clockwork buzzsaw gardener, blinding daffodils, razor mint, adorable uncontrollable kittens and a big black dog. He needs to steal a wasp whose sting causes a 2 year agony coma!

My credit union's servers are choking on the traffic of its members trying to see if they got their checks today, so alas, I can't set my budget for the rest of the month.
But when I do, I'm COMING FOR YOU writers and artists. <3 <3

in 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse' (2019), the camera was intentionally placed upside down during the Leap of Faith scene to show that Miles is rising, not falling🕷

So it's very tough not to come away with the lesson that my emotions are untrustworthy because they're so out of sync with everyone else's, and that expressing them will make folks super uncomfortable in some way.
It's so much easier to be withdrawn.
When I learned about this and tried to start being a bit more open about my emotions (especially at work), I learned that this is compounded by being seen as way more threatening as a black man than other folks. It's hard to regulate emotions, but impossible to display them.
