improbably, I wrote about @TheTraitorsUS (specifically, my queen Pavarti Shallow) and @RyanGosling 's Ken! ⬇️

They Tenderly Scream "CAMP" and We Lovingly Scream Back

The Traitors head-band wearing Parvati Shallow and Barbie's head-shaking Ryan Gosling tenderly scream “camp” and enthralled, we lovingly scream back.

And 5. To be clear, the fact that her football songs are kinda bad is amazing and I love that for her and for them. “He can ball / I know Aristotle” is insane. and I, a huge nerd, also married a very lovable, happy jock.

Happy #TSTTPD day to all who celebrate. Some thoughts:

1. “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” is a bop for the high-functioning depressed girlies and, in TS’s own words, I feel so seen.

2. It’s not *Poetry*but, the woman writes damn good/catchy lyrics (see: chorus of “Down Bad)

[AJ Gold @agold258]

3. The exception to #2 is the Travis songs with terrible lyrics. @NoraPrinciotti tweeting “revoke the lombardi” will live rent free in my head forever. No notes. I am PSYCHED for the new Every Single Album!

4. 2 students messaged this morning to discuss it which just 😢❤️

[AJ Gold @agold258]

@RosenzweigJane You look great! So manly and distinguished!

[AJ Gold @agold258]

@AbiaSKhan Sorry not sorry!!

[AJ Gold @agold258]

@AbiaSKhan GIRL. i have thoughts. the disrespect. students are fully doing work for other classes in the middle of my class.

[AJ Gold @agold258]

@GregGiven it's the "requires regeneration" that always gets me. kazuo ishiguro called and he wants his euphemism back. 🧐

[AJ Gold @agold258]

@GregGiven Thanks for all you do for us!!! It’s so appreciated 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
