Took my four-year-old to a park where a middle school graduation party happened to be. My little was so into it the kids let her join in, painted her face, made her a friendship bracelet, and gave her temp tattoos and grad pompoms. Made her year. Kids areā€¦

So much of Trump support is motivated by nostalgia for an America that never actually existed. People love to glorify the old days, but whatever anyone remembers from childhood about how much better things used to be, it wasnā€™t because anything wasā€¦

The way people who stay on Twitter continually bash all other platforms as less powerful and less convenient and too much of a hassle is exactly why people support Trump. They know theyā€™re supporting a bad thing, but itā€™s too personally uncomfortable andā€¦

I'll tell you, there was this place called the Blue Heaven. It was great. Had to steal IDs to get in, but it was incredible. It was like a huge underground circus, you know. Hot pink neon climbin' up the walls. And astro music. [contains quote post orā€¦

Some actual plant expert just outlined how Cottonwoods do not trigger pollen allergies and yet Iā€™ve received dozens of replies from people who had legitimate allergy attacks just from watching this. This is why I study the psychological power of stories,ā€¦

When I bought my house the ground was so trashed that snack wrappers and plastic bottle caps would regularly just pop up from the soil. Iā€™ve spent three years now rehabbing it. This apple tree was on the brink of death, and now produces fruit every fall,ā€¦

Every summer my entire area gets this, what my kids and I call, ā€œsummer snow.ā€ All the cottonwood trees release their seeds and fill the sky like this. It ā€œsnowedā€ on me while I gardened yesterday and it made me smile when I really needed it. So I thoughtā€¦

I didnā€™t even apply to this because I have too much going on, but I love this, as a writer whoā€™s applied for many jobs. Kindest broadcast from a hiring manager Iā€™ve ever heard honestly. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

People really didnā€™t understand how blessed we were to have such a long run of leaders, however imperfect, with at least a modicum of respect for our traditions and laws. And they threw it away, because they were too entitled to think we could lose it.

Social solidarity is destroyed when leaders target and alienate every group in society that is different from their own. Solidarity literally means ā€œmutual support within a group.ā€ If the group is society demonizing any part of that group is solidarityā€™sā€¦

I think we definitely do need to appeal to young men, but not by pandering to them. That just insults them like the right does. We need to treat young men with the respect of standards and expectations. Men can have self-esteem and an accurate concept ofā€¦

My favorite parts of The Last of Us this season, aside from Catharine Oā€™Hara who wins all, is that the whole plot is extremely Dickensian. Eugene was dead to begin with. And then theyā€™re not even shying away from being another season of Game of Thrones. Iā€¦

I just need to vent into the room that I hate how hard and painful everything is for everyone who cares right now and I wish there was something we could do to make it stop. Itā€™s been a lot, for everyone. But at least, we arenā€™t alone šŸ–¤šŸ«‚

Someone recently asked me how I can be so forgiving of all the traumatic things Iā€™ve been through. Because I like logic. Logic sort of has control over my neural pathways. And Iā€™ve done a lot of bad shit too. Forgiving you helps me forgive me.

Education matters folks. Not saying she needs to be educated. She knows what sheā€™s doing. Sheā€™s dropping poison in deeply ignorant waters. People who donā€™t know better will believe her. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

So people often ask me how I meditate. The best way to describe is via a story from Mother Theresa. I know; sheā€™s problematic, just embrace the gray with me for a second. When asked how she prays, she said, I listen. When asked what God says, she said, Heā€¦
