Dear @RudyFrancisco, Your book Helium was one of two things I asked for this Christmas. I opened it tonight. I can’t put it down, and I don’t want to. Thank you. These two made me cry and I couldn’t keep them to myself. Thank you. You are a genius with words. Thank you.

@Evan_P_Grant @Whataburger That’s my old man lol

A man just won @Whataburger for a year in the Flinigin' Fries contest. Best fry flinger I've ever seen. Deadly.

Fun Fact: The “Deadly Fry Flinger” is my father.

Check out these six-word memoirs, from the writers in T @Mere_Rester's class! #ELAchat

3 Years Later: I brought this same lesson to my high school art classes.

This week my students were challenged to see themselves as writers, and as people with stories worth telling. Their first step was to write Six Word Memoirs. These are just a few, now proudly on display outside my room. #ApolloGearUp #RISDgreatness

Cool. I have a 14 year old daughter watching her first Superbowl. She’s happy to take your place.

for literally ANYONE who may not know: the amount of stalkers and death threats she’s received has forced her security team to set up facial recognition software at concerts to track her stalkers. Her security team also carries wound dressings and QuikClot with them in case she’s attacked. This particular stalker just arrested was seen over 30 TIMES in the last 2 months near her apartment but was only now finally put in jail. But people will still complain that her private jet is simple preposterous and can’t fathom WHY she can’t fly commercially. (she bought more than DOUBLE the carbon credits needed to help offset the costs of her travel just an fyi). And now you have sick fucks making ai p0rn of her because what? Because She went to a football game? Because she’s acting like a normal human again and letting herself be seen in public again? Now we have people saying “it’s good that these images were made of her b/c now she will do something about it”. Why should she HAVE to be an activist for this kind of shit. She was previously a victim of SA and she took the man to court only after her tried to sue HER for the loss of his job. She countered for $1. Literally $1 just to make a statement (yes, she won.) Maybe just maybeee men (and some women) could stop being fucking freaks and start treating females with respect. Why don’t you go and make ai images of yourself or your s.o. or family if you love doing it so much? It’s just fake anyway, right? And to say you dislike Taylor’s music is perfectly fine, not everyone is a fan, but that is NO excuse to treat her like she’s subhuman. Just admit you have a fragile masculinity and can’t handle seeing an extremely successful woman be happy. Taylor has been in the spotlight for 18 years now, and she has NEVER had a single person come out saying anything but nice things after an encounter with her (fuck Kimye, they were proven to be liars when the whole phone call was leaked but 1/2 of y’all already spent years DRAGGING her for it). She silently donates HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars to local food banks to the cities she tours in. She is an extremely generous boss and gave her truck drivers EACH a $100k bonus this past year for helping on the US leg of the tour (she in total handed out 5mil worth of bonuses to her tour crew). She’s invited HUNDREDS of fans into her homes to show them her new albums before they were released and even REMEMBERS THEM BY NAME. She’s a truly just GOOD human being. But y’all want to criticize her every second for dating in her 20s (she’s had 13 bfs over 18 years btw but y’all wanna act like she had a new one every week) If there was ever a human who DESERVES their fame, it’s undoubtedly Taylor Swift. She’s literally just a woman doing what she loves and supporting the people she loves. The absolute BARE MINIMUM you could do is just show a modicum of respect.

THE TEXAS RANGERS ARE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!
