Alex Jones is not the voice of reason here. He is not the good guy. He does not get praise for not going full Nazi. please don't fucking embarass yourself out here.

I will vote for Democrats, then criticize Democrats when they suck, then vote for them again, in a little maneuver I call “BEING CAPABLE OF UNDERSTANDING MULTIPLE FUCKING TRUTHS AT THE SAME GODDAMN TIME.”

@rachsyme finally, wandering towards home well past midnight & checking in a with a friend and former flame at my local bar to find he had reconciled with an ex gf, realizing I was genuinely happy for him & excited to see her again. Nothing earth shaking, but full of joy and surprise.

@rachsyme An afternoon spent floating down the lazy river at Six Flags in NJ, flirting with a friend of a friend; getting back to NYC hours late for another friend's birthday, & by total coincidence finding my brother & his best friends at the same bar where the party had come & gone 1/2

I learned a useful thing today, which everyone should know: If you call your bank / credit card / etc. and ask them nicely to remove a late fee, they might! (The seems like a Bad Equity Problem. But all I can really do about it is spread the word!)

@hels I want to start a twitter account called Don’t Worry She’s Thin and only tweet the specific sentence from every book that tells you that the heroine is slim. It’s always in there somewhere!

The Executive Branch has "whole of government" action plans for everything from alien invasion to LOTS OF SNOW. But they *didn't* have something on file, ready to DEPLOY, the moment women's rights were attacked in this country, LIKE RED STATE REPUBLICANS HAVE PROMISED TO DO?

@SaraJBenincasa My guy Jeeves knows what an ice cream pint looks like and follows me from the freezer. He's also a fiend for tortilla chips and marshmallows.

Amazing thread. I would add: John Goodman in lots of things but Dan Conner in Roseanne comes to mind.

As someone who was personally "paralyzed in a devastating accident," I'd have liked to read more about the injured people in question. How do they take care of their partners? Do they feel comfortable having their spouses as their aides?
Amber Ferguson@Ms_AmberDawn

Your partner becomes paralyzed in a devastating accident. You become their full-time caregiver. You catheter them every 3-4 hours and lift them in and out of a wheelchair several times a day. Your state says it's a "wifely duty" and refuses to pay you. washingtonpost.com/business/inter…

Because the world has failed to supply vaccines, only 1.2% percent of people in Africa are fully vaccinated against Covid, and cases are increasing rapidly across much of the continent. I don't have words to express how unacceptable this is.

NEW: Weekly update on variants in NYC is out. Delta now makes up 22.7% of cases, up from 5.6% in prior week. This should spur everyone who is on the fence to get vaccinated ASAP.
