Betsy McCall

If anyone is looking for me after tomorrow, I'll be here: @theonides@mastodon.social I'm not closing my account yet, but I'll be shouting into the void somewhere else, at least until the "Chief Twit" can prove he won't turn this place into a cesspool.

@Mrs_Meowmerz @toddedillard *patience

@Mrs_Meowmerz @toddedillard I love hearing from my former students. It's what gives me the patients to sit through 4-5 security awareness and FERPA trainings every year.

@nathaliejacoby1 wasn't he born in South Africa? he'd be an illegal president.

@atrupar there he goes projecting again

Kevin McCarthy is on Fox News calling John Fetterman an embarrassment. Classy stuff.

@bgmasters Oh, so intersex kids won't be forced into being male or female then at birth without their consent? I don't believe you for a second. you're nothing but a fascist thug demonizing the other.

I oppose child sex-change operations. Mark Kelly does not. Arizona, the choice is yours.

@angryfermion that's actually 50% above my actual salary as a grad student.

STEM majors be like "i know my worth" and then only make $30k in grad school

@ElieNYC How does the media give the GOP any credibility on crime whatsoever... they want everyone walking around with guns as their solution.

The media is so goddamn predictable and so entirely in the pocket of the GOP.

@pickover I'd have to go with the 2nd Punic War because the Phoenicians are cool, and Hannibal is amazing.

History. Glimpse the past. Would you rather be a world-renowned expert on the Punic Wars or on the Peloponnesian War? Why?

@nathaliejacoby1 C

@toddedillard Nah. I'd just be surprised they were able to track me down after all these years. It's not like I've only had one or two email changes.

You know what is painful to watch? People lying. People groveling for Trump. That's painful.

@MSNBC If we expect our politicians to be superhuman, no one will be able to work in government unless they are lying about their health. Is that what we want?

Disabled Americans have the right to be represented, and most importantly, to work — and that includes working for the U.S. government. on.msnbc.com/3TIs4aI

@battygrrl Lucky for him, he's in far better health than my mother.

@battygrrl If my mom needs me, I will find a way to help her. But, too much water under the bridge for my dad. I already told him, if he expects me to care for him in his old age, he's going to be sorely disappointed.

@kelly_ques if it doesn't have enough room for my books, it's not acceptable.

Would you rather live in a tree house or a tiny home by the beach?

I look forward to the day when Trump and his ilk are just as much a pariah as David Duke was 30 years ago. Any endorsement from him should be immediately denounced. No one should be politically credible if they support him.

@cgranade I followed you on mastodon!
