Not worried about the singularity anymore. It’s hard to picture these two stooges taking over... @Google @amazon

Kendrick literally protested, and taunted America in front of the president during America’s biggest sports event. Chefs kiss.

Sorry to hear about the death of Norm Macdonald. He was one of the greats of comedy. And he was also a really good guy. He will be missed.

My labmates are awesome!

Listen. It takes some time for the vaccine to be fully effective. You gotta let it mRNAte.

Here is an even better article about this story, because it contains a line clarifying that metal shards are "not a traditional ice cream topping" for anyone who has never heard of ice cream or metal or shards before!

Metal shards! Looks like someone beat @benandjerrys to the punch in making a 2020 experience-themed ice cream. Guess we won't be seeing the "Hindsight is 2020" flavor I was hoping for...

My latest piece on humor and medicine for the wonderful @synapsisjournal is up now! I look at just a few of the instances where those with disabilities have been exploited for humor. Please check it out (and share!) if you get a chance! Thank you!

@Monrosa01 @marklevinshow You mean like leaving them to die from COVID-19 at twice the rate as the rest of the country, as this data from Veteran's Affairs shows?

[Jonathan Nez @NezForAZ]

Great job to all of the Native American voters, organizers, and grassroots advocates who made a BIG difference in this year’s election! Ahe’hee’ to all Diné people — we are #NavajoStrong and we have the power to change the outcome of elections! 👍🏽

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Anyone saying this after immigrant organizers delivered AZ, Black grassroots flipped Georgia, MI going blue w reality-bending 94% Detroit margin + @RashidaTlaib running up the margins in her district & Trump publicly challenging @IlhanMN in MN and losing isn’t a serious person.
