Many people assume I am talking about the leisure activity of a few housewives when I say that I study the history of lacemaking… no, it was a massive, international labor network of girls & women that major regional economies were dependent on. And it’s not an anomaly

@adjacent_summer Yeah, same. There was a global pandemic and I said "cooking? that's a pressure I'm just not gonna put on myself anymore."

There’s no easier layup for a politician than going “your local beloved athlete sure is good” but Trump reflexively throws in a little side of race commentary because he truly cannot help himself

@imaginmatrix good luck with it! (Doctors took 10 years to mention spiro to me so I'm on alert.)

BREAKING: 150 billionaire families have now poured a record-breaking $1.9 BILLION into the 2024 election.

That's $700 million more than 600+ billionaires spent on the 2020 election.

Billionaires shouldn't get to buy our elections.

End Citizens United. Tax billionaires.

@shondagoward In the store the other day, bare cupboard at home, but I decided to just eat cereal for a while.

Gisèle Pelicot walking to take the stand today, her strength echoing in every step:

“It’s not for us to have shame, it’s for them,” she told the court.

"I want all women who have been raped to say: Madame Pelicot did it, I can too. I don't want them to be ashamed any longer,"

40 years ago today, Jesse Jackson hosted SNL. An episode that included one of their best game show sketches.
