I am once again humbly asking performers of the #SuperBowlHalfTimeShow to STOP USING STROBE LIGHTS
MILLIONS of viewers each year have Photosensitive Epilepsy and other neurological conditions and your “fun effect” is causing PERMANENT and IRREVERSIBLE brain damage. Do better.
@BYUsupersoaker I really want the version of this playlist for “do you remember the song that was playing the first time you broke 100 mph (in any car, in your current car)” because I think that playlist would be fascinating to compare
Any of my friends out there who just got first year signing bonuses- consider helping my cherished friend save his cherished friend’s life: Berenstein is fighting hard to recover after a life-threatening emergency. Donate or share to help him heal. https://t.co/5zQXnoe5o0
The Vatican’s sacred music school is seeking to teach Catholics worldwide how to sing ancient Gregorian chant as a means to help the faithful participate actively in the liturgy. https://t.co/LVXIAMWH07
Arizonans hate Californio drivers in AZ because they’re using all the blinker fluid in the state and Arizonans haven’t figured out how to get more yet.

“Will the next pope be right wing?” Wrong question. Catholicism is nine times older than the left-right paradigm. There’s no way to plot conclave politics on less than twenty different axes, several of which operate on non-physical planes & three of which are about being Italian
The conversation got so much weirder from here, but yeah, yeah, everyone insert your standard “Lakers fans be like” “Californians be like” “Italians be like” “Philadelphians be like” “Catholics be like” and quote retweet me on this one lmao. Love never dies though 💜💛💜💛🤍💛��🇦
M: “Yeah, Lebron, lace up those skates LA needs you”
Me: I am so fully and completely out of it I was expecting to see Kobe on the ice.
*a full beat*
Me: The man is dead. I think for a while now? Man, at least Kobe gets to be with Pope Francis again.
It has been SUCH a weekend that I was checking the Stanley Cup playoff standings and was so surprised to see the Kings beating the Oilers that I couldn’t even process what team LAK could possibly be…
“Why are the Lakers in the NHL playoffs?”

A Non-Catholic’s (very excellent) take on some of the greatest hits of one of our greatest Popes. Worth a good hard read and an understanding of how truly Pope Francis understood the importance of diversity of perspective in the Church. We are interconnected and unique on purpose
I’m not a Christian.
But I believe Pope Francis was the most badass Pope in history.
He refused to reduce God to a magician. Fought climate collapse. And preached like he time-traveled from 2140.
Here are 9 reasons why he was lightyears ahead of his time: 🧵
I am already so deeply done with the terrible things I have heard my FELLOW CATHOLICS say while our Holy Father is merely hours deceased. So in lieu of any statement on that behavior, I will leave the words HE said:
(From @NPR’s article on the death of @Pontifex Pope Francis)
Pope Francis was the rare leader who made us want to be better people. In his humility and his gestures at once simple and profound – embracing the sick, ministering to the homeless, washing the feet of young prisoners – he shook us out of our complacency and reminded us that we are all bound by moral obligations to God and one another.
Today, Michelle and I mourn with everyone around the world – Catholic and non-Catholic alike – who drew strength and inspiration from the Pope’s example. May we continue to heed his call to “never remain on the sidelines of this march of living hope.”
He really did it. THANK YOU President Joe Biden for commuting 37/40 federal death row prisoners.
THIS kind of compassion is why you should be asking for more former public defenders in politics (and fewer prosecutors)

There are currently 40 men awaiting execution under the federal death penalty. @POTUS you are in office for 71 more days. Make good on your promise to oppose the federal death penalty and commute these sentences to life imprisonment.

There are 69 days left for @JoeBiden to save the lives of these 40 men.
If you’re reading this and you’re not Joe Biden, please join me in signing this ACLU petition.

@niceinseattle@AshleyGWinter This “middle ground” was the Casey standard (always legal before viability, states can regulate after viability) that was the law of the land for 30 years before Dobbs. This “middle ground for everyone” is what we had before it got eroded by illegal abortion bans & SCOTUS fights
@CNLiberalism Really quick distinction: Kamala Harris was not and is not Joe Biden. This administration is not hers, and assuming everyone who liked Biden (or voted for him) would automatically back Harris was the first big mistake. Y’all wanted to ditch Biden so badly but still take credit?
