Alright you guys, I’ve been thinking about this a long time and there’s something I really need to get off my chest...

*clears throat*

🗣THERE’S NO WAY FRODO SURVIVES THE HEAT FROM MT DOOM EXPLODING THEN JUST HANGS OUT ON A ROCK SURROUNDED BY LAVA WITHOUT DYING

Happy Pride Month! I’m deleting Twitter. I can’t passively support a transphobic bigot. Find me on other social media if you want.

Elon Musk is actively calling for imprisoning healthcare professionals and therapists for providing care to trans youth that has been proven to lower their suicide rates by 73%.

He also has declared he will lobby against their care politically.

Every dime you give him hurts us.

Leaving the Oppenheimer theater and heading to the Barbie theater

[Scott Hechinger @ScottHech]

This is insane. Rikers just unapologetically announcing they’ll no longer notify media when people they’re caging die. https://t.co/hVld5NVd7H

Episode 15: The World Is Flat

Atop a foundation of xenophobia and a teetering stack of the worst metaphors you'll ever hear, Thomas Friedman builds the case for keeping America competitive in a globalizing world.

Mortgage rates back to 7%.

Meaning that the cost to buy a house in America is now approaching $2,700/month when including mortgage, tax, insurance, and maintenance.

Meanwhile, cost to rent is $1,850.

Biggest gap we've ever seen. Something has to break.

🧵Marjorie Taylor Greene’s words about Rep Bowman are a result of the exclusion of Black History being taught in schools

Stating she doesn’t feel safe around a Black man is what a racist would say — it’s a line that has been used to justify the killing of Black men for centuries

[Stacey Hauff @stacey_hauff]

Once again perplexed about street meat’s role in the Short North gun violence discourse.

[Zito @_Zeets]

It’s an incredible experience to be alive when so much of the country is pushing repressive gender, abortion, and education laws, and celebrating vigilante violence — not to mention police and gun violence — only to get these same boring articles about insufferable nerds.

Karl Lagerfeld was a racist, homophobic, and fatphobic misogynist. Gross.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Anna Wintour, who was one of Karl Lagerfeld’s closest friends, said she hopes the late designer “would understand how many people love and respect him” by paying homage to him tonight at the Met Gala. https://t.co/t8P5rPhqcC
