This is an issue conservatives and progressives should unite behind. A society that knowingly and willfully condemns millions of sentient animals to a lifetime of extreme misery and cruelty is not what America should be. Contact your Congress member.

My daughter was interviewed for an @NBCNews story Saturday night bc the hospital where she’s been was featured. She’s amazing! Also, she’s started a foundation that is all about lifting up other kids and teens who suffer from chronic illness! Cuddlebugfoundation.org.

"You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right, I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you... but I don't like to hurt people's feelings. Well, you think what you want about me; I'm not changing. I like... I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. 'Cause I'm the real article. What you see is what you get."

@kaylajohnsonatl Kenneth Branagh's adaptation is brilliant. I was such a cool kid that in HS I went with a group of fellow cool kids, all dressed in suits, to see the full 4hr unedited version (with an actual intermission) at an indie theater in Atlanta. 😎

Where are my Shakespeare people at?? Looking to do some film adaptation learning before the new Hamnet comes out and changes my life lol.

As a Cubs fan, I'm ecstatic about advancing, but I just rewatched that ^9 and that was A MESS #GoCubsGo

This is why I love this show and listen/watch it daily. We need more of this!

I will reiterate my statement we released at @CCPublicLife following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump's life: “It is not just the act of violence but the spirit of violence that must be opposed. It is not just the action to harm another which must be opposed but the desire that harm would fall to another. If we do not have the courage to pursue a politics of love, our political heart will become consumed by hate.”

Today my daughter called me from college to watch the UGA game with me over the phone and she stayed on the whole game and I’m just 😭

@cordiallycourt @Ferndiggity Same!

@matthew_browne @Ferndiggity That one with All Flesh is Like the Grass, and Oh God, You Are My God. Very thankful for these. But yes, the whole album!

I need to sing this to myself several times a day. open.spotify.com/track/31EaT6LG…

@cordiallycourt @Ferndiggity I love this whole album but this is the track that comes to the surface most regularly. Recently I’ve started singing it every Sunday on the way to church

@Ferndiggity This is one of my favorites, one that I always put on in hard times. JUST RECENTLY FOR EXAMPLE 😅

@kaylajohnsonatl @mwp764 @HamiltonBrbr @atlmeagsnow I would’ve loved to be there!! I was painting ceilings in the house which was also so much fun

Missed the rest of yall but we sure did have fun @mwp764 @HamiltonBrbr @atlmeagsnow

Europeans: “this email is unmonitored over summer. good luck” Americans:

@natgrace79 I feel the same way. There’s no way these numbers are true, right???

@natgrace79 Wow, Natalie! Thank you for inviting us into this story. Praying for continued peace and clarity on what is next!

@emilykmay Really beautiful piece, Emily! And so grateful for your voice in this. I know my experience w an autistic child has been different from yours and I’m truly so sorry! Your heart for your daughter which you exhibit here and elsewhere is a gift to us all! 🫶

I wrote a piece about my perspective as a parent raising a child with autism. Honored that the NYT chose to publish it ❤️ nytimes.com/2025/04/25/opi…

“Make no mistake: if he rose at all
It was as His body;
If the cell’s dissolution did not reverse, the molecule reknit,
The amino acids rekindle,
The Church will fall.” John Updike, “7 Stanzas for Easter” He is risen indeed! Hallelujah!

@_nomadic_soul Absolutely insane that the “common sense” choice from their perspective is “you can either be cherished or you can be equal”

Why can’t I have it both ways?

@LChas22 I don’t think most Christians think about this reality enough or ever even consider it but I think about it all the time

No matter what brand of Christian you are, another brand thinks you are headed for hell if you don’t repent and start interpreting the Bible the way they do. And each brand has universities and doctoral programs proving their interpretation is correct. It’s an issue.

@kaylajohnsonatl I think that's it!

@matthew_browne Floored??

I got cheap reading glasses last week and I HATE how much they have changed my life

@kaylajohnsonatl thank you for the rec! I'll definitely check them out. Right now I watch TV without them and let them sit at the end of my nose for reading/laptop/etc. and I feel like Chuck Schumer

@matthew_browne Once you get an official prescription do Zeni optical and be flored… floured? Amazed?
