Hey Twitter, why don’t you try this, which I’ve seen work well on other platforms: lose the irony and unearned cynicism and stop trying to win. Genuinely mean every damn word you put in writing and treat others with dignity. Put your real picture on your profile, alongside…
Remember, ChatGPT is designed to make you feel important and smart. You are still a useless imbecile. ~me to myself before opening ChatGPT
Just realized @KirkCousins8 is basically Ted Lasso with a stronger arm. I never knew much about him before the Netflix QB documentary, but I’m rooting for @AtlantaFalcons this year, because Kirk is the dorky dad in all of us. As a very casual Jets fan most of my life, I’m allowed…

The Wall Street Journal says UFOs are just Cold War pranks. I asked their reporter why he ignored Senate testimony, Pentagon admissions, and bipartisan legislation. His non-answer is so common in the mainstream press, it might as well be their Latin motto for coverage of this…
Women endure thankless, invisible labor. Men endure thankless, invisible pressure. We do not always have the language for what happens in the shadows of ordinary life. For women, it is the steady erosion of the self by a thousand small obligations: the dinners planned, the…
I am 100% on board with what @GregoryScaduto says here. In fact, so much so, I have a new personal rule. I am no longer interacting or engaging with accounts that do not have a real name, either as their handle or profile name. @elonmusk should require it on @X.

Sharp question, and one I probably should have addressed in my essay. My understanding is it’s possible - probable, even - that nothing will meaningfully improve for American Indian women so long as the weirdly durable precedent of Oliphant v. Suquamish remains in place like…
