"The South doesn't have a racism problem." SCOTUS guts the VRA. Southern states with white supermajorities rush to redistrict all black reps out of power. Tell me again the south doesn't have a very real problem.with racism.

Anyone else just feeling this high level of anxiety waiting to see what atrocities and war crimes Trump commits today? My heart is so heavy for the people of Iran and the fear they must be feeling.

I'm reading Game Changer to see what the hype is all about. 2/3 the way through and this book is crap. Just total, utter crap. I do not get it. The writing is bad, the plot could have been an email, and they can't even get basic hockey details correct (shoot out rules, playoff timelines).

Deep down I know that Artemis II trending is probably just mission updates, but I can't help but take a deep breath before clicking and fearing the worst.

D&D is unhinged tonight. We are fighting weasels that steal teeth and take the voice of whoever they steal from. They stole a tooth from our French harlequin doll. The skeleton fighter picked one up to take it back. The weasel bit him. The skeleton bit back. The weasel shouts, "Vhat ze fuck, dude?"

Teen wants to not do his school and claim it's because he cant focus on his own. Guess who gets to sit with me the whole time he works now? Don't make a problem you dont want me to fix, kid.

For those who don’t already: Take time to listen to music and do nothing else. Don’t scroll your phone, don’t text, don’t flip through a book. Just sit there and listen. Maybe even close your eyes. You might be surprised what a beautiful and therapeutic experience it can be.

One day a No Kings protest won't happen on the day there is something important for one of my children. Because fuck that guy, but I will do everything in my power to keep my kids' lives as normal as possible.

The US health system is such a racket. The high deductible plan that allows for an HSA is more expensive than the high deductible plan with co-pays, but I can't get a HSA.

Depending on other results, the Predators could end up in playoff position for the first time since early October with a win tonight. UTA 73 pts SEA 67 pts ———— LAK 67 pts SJ 66 pts NAS 66 pts Nashville visits Vancouver, Seattle plays Colorado, San Jose visits Boston, Los Angeles off.

Hey, Middle TN book lovers, The Crying Cat bookstore in Murfreesboro is amazing! Trans-owned and a great selection! They have vinyls, too. Picked up a copy of Toxicity by System of a Down for $25! Allllmost got the Black Parade album by MCR, too. (And can't beat this sign!)

Ryan O’Reilly will return to the Predators lineup against the Sabres today. Scary eye injury against CLB on Tuesday. He had stitches under the eyelid, but no vision loss or pain at the moment, he said on Friday. Very lucky.
