My four-year-old made a pun. It was intentional and it was even kind of funny. I think she’s experimenting with idioms too. Is that supposed to happen at this age?

Hey look, Facebook did something not shady for once. The First Amendment has a long history of exceptions for egregious or violent behavior. White supremacy is one of them.

Congratulations to Slovakia’s first female President-elect Zuzana Caputova. Even if Slovakia’s presidency is more ceremonial, they still beat the US to it, and amidst a wave of conservative populism at that. 🏳️‍🌈🖖🤜 #ZuzanaCaputova

I don’t in any way support the death penalty, but if we’re stuck with it then why not use opiates? Inmates would go peacefully, and it’s not like opiates are bloody hard to come by in the US. cnn.com/2019/04/02/opi…

All the old men wrinkle up to the same general shape, and love is weird. Seven years after his death every trip to a coffee shop includes at least one moment where I look up and almost say, “Dad?”

I'm not saying he doesn't have the experience or policy positions which SHOULD be requisite for political office. But his site has zero, and multiple media sources are left with nothing more to talk about than his football record. The Senate? Seriously? politi.co/2FVLBjv

To avoid looking completely + utterly out of touch w/ the reality our prison system: Instead of asking, “Should the Boston Bomber have the right to vote?” Try, “Should a nonviolent person stopped w/ a dime bag LOSE the right to vote?” Bc that question reflects WAY more people.

My walk today turned into the question, “Can I outrun a pissed-off German Shepherd with three legs?” Turns out I didn’t have to because he was leashed to the front doorknob of his house. #Disneyland and the city of #Anaheim are two whole different universes.

So Joe Biden supports the #HydeAmendment. Reminding us that congress won't fund abortions. Hasn't since 1976. Same day comes a frantic mailer from Ted Cruz asking for donations because "our tax dollars" are funding abortions. This is why we can't have nice things.#IStandWithPP

That advice to read your writing aloud? After setting up a borrowed condenser mic in a sound booth with a demo copy of Pro Tools, I may have taken things a little far. It makes for really solid editing though. #writingcommunity #writingcommmunity #Amwriting

My wife just said, “It’s really hard to internet-stalk nuns.” This is what happens when I let her work all evening instead of hard selling her on Netflix and some wine.

Everyone tell your aging parents to stop googling their bank. If they need to log in, make them go through the heart-rending saga of typing www. and .com. Scammers have that behavior in their crosshairs. Got my mom and FIL in one week. Big scary malware phishing via juicy ads.

I got nothing. All I can do - all anyone raised white, living white should be doing - is to listen. And time to use cameras and mics for every single law enforcement encounter in the country for crying out loud.

This has to make somebody feel better after this week of police-state dystopia.

@TimoSci Gandalf Grey₿eard Stack Hodler This was also the criticism against the the US Constitution. Small “r” republicanism only worked for Ancient Greece because they were tiny city-states. It would never work in a geographic region as big and diverse as the thirteen American colonies.

I said goodbye to a patient a few years ago. She didn’t die, she just got old. I treat patients to age 21 and they move on. When they do, I joke, “well, I did my job! I kept you alive until adulthood!” With this kid, it was not a joke. 1/

Religious liberty is an essential element of our laws. But it should not be used a fig leaf for homophobia.
