Yeah sorry, if your grieving process involves hyping war crimes, you deserve to be called out. I did it with as much respect and restraint as possible considering the circumstances, but I’d abso-fucking-lutely do it again.

I found some of her early songs annoying, but her last two (actually, last three, I think?) albums have been really good. Like, exceptionally good. It’s cool when you get to watch an artist grow up and they actually *do* grow up and get better. I’m a full-on fan now. Folklore and Evermore were my pandemic soundtrack.

I get that, and I really understand and appreciate that anger... I just guess I need you to know that Palestinians are people, and we can read. So just be aware of that moving forward.

“Reading this almost makes me see worth in the Israeli tactic of destroying the family homes (and occasionally killing the families) of attackers after the act, but I know that’s just the rage talking.”

You know, this is a really fucked up thing to say, especially during a really fucked up week for Palestinians. I’m…

Replied to the wrong post... ignore.

“He said he’d get us out of Afghanistan, and we’re out of Afghanistan. I get that (apparently) no one on the left actually cared about that despite beating that drum for a couple of decades.”

If you see the US abandoning Afghanistan to the Taliban with absolutely nothing to show for the past 20 years as some kind of a…

I am booked for a 13-hour flight this summer so that I can go home and give birth in the US... As far as I know, my airline still requires masks, but I’m sure they will have given that up by then. The thought of sharing air space with that many unmasked people for that long while heavily pregnant is a bit overwhelming.…

We can live with the virus. It requires common sense public health practices like masks on public transit.

No, I agree, it’s definitely Islamophobia. It’s just especially gutting when the refugees being denied are coming from a place that the US itself destabilized (see: Afghanistan, Iraq).

Don’t worry, Ukraine is definitely winning the propaganda war, no matter what I say. And to my mind, Russia is committing war crimes in Ukraine and the resulting refugee crisis is probably going to reshape the continent for decades to come. I say that because I live in the Middle East, and I’ve seen what welcoming wave…

Why would the president of an actual nation satellite in to speak to the Oscars? That’s an absolutely deranged idea. It’s already weird how much time Zelenskyy appears to have to consistently roll out new video messages, but even inviting him to speak to the Oscars would have been crazy. It’s a fancy party for…

It used to be, but not in her last two albums. 

“Y’all stay wanting Ed Sheeran’s Irish ass to be the king of calypso and Latinx beats, don’t you?”

Vinegar may not hurt for your clothes, but it damaged my washing machine. I tried using it as an extra astringent at the beginning of COVID (I was doing too much for a while there...) and it wore away at my machine’s metal lining interior. I was getting little metal bits on my clean clothes. 

Blows my mind that both a teller AND a manager could perceive that as a threatening request. They had access to his accounts — I’m sure they could see that there was a lot more than 12 grand in there. How racist do you have to be to call the cops on someone asking for money from their own account?

It was a lot of fun... I didn’t feel like any of the individual performances were incredible (sorry Mary), but the whole thing definitely hit all my nostalgia buttons.

Yeah, that seemed like a random choice. All things considered, he put on a good show, but it wasn’t a “best of all time” show.

She was great in Bridgerton, but the show over all was more of a time filler than must-see entertainment. 

One show that I thought did a great job with this kind of infidelity/coming-out-story was Grace and Frankie. The dads were so happy to be out of the closet that they expected their kids to feel the same — meanwhile, they were understandably salty about their moms being lied to and abandoned out of the blue. The show…

I mean, sure, but she and her mom turned that rich people money into Kardashian money. Out of the two of them, I’m sure Kim’s income was higher than Kanye’s.
