@ChrisNoblett @DrOBrienMD The "retarded" slur is a tell. You should know better at our age.

@dieworkwear Am I the only one who looks at this and thinks 1) Hockney (RIP) and 2) all it needs now is a yellow diving board

@JoyceCarolOates Gorey would be rolling. In a time past, his original furniture remained in his house on Cape Cod and one could see that the entire back of his couch was shredded top to bottom by the cats he considered to be the rightful owners.

@JoyceCarolOates Woolf was masterful at exploring intellectual and emotional love. Her muse, Vita Sackville-West, wrote much more explicitly about passion but seems to be admired primarily in the UK by readers of a certain age.

@chrisshipitv All persons who abhor tyrants should speak out against Trump and Putin for humanity's sake, but most voices are too 'small' to be heard. He's using an opportunity to amplify points universally held by many, just as non-politicians Musk, Rogan, Kirk, Shapiro, etc do for their POVs

@MandalorianGe0 @Guzik_Paulina I've got a chart I can sell you.🙄Iraq holds elections where various religious and ethnic groups can participate, but actual democratic governance is smothered by corruption, militias extrajudicially infringing on human rights, etc A farce democracy created by force.

@JoyceCarolOates Or a William Hogarth etching

@JoyceCarolOates So true, and humans have been around for such a short time. Believing that any 'ology' is fixed forever as we know it ignores the certainty that knowledge evolves alongside everything else. We sometimes can't fathom the how or why of it in the moment, that's all.

@JoyceCarolOates I walked the Robert Frost Trail in Amherst, Mass. earlier this week. I wish so-called strongmen would think about what he wrote in Mending Wall
"Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offense."
