Trigger warning: school shootings

All of this reminds me why I always leave my home with I love yous because I never know if it's my last day. I know it sounds dramatic, but school shootings are so commonplace and my school has had a lockdown because of a threat of a shooter.

Just your little reminder that abortion bans violate Jewish women and families' religious freedom.

Well, I wasn't wrong about this being the last time I apply to grad school. I got accepted to a grad program to get my PhD and I will start in the fall.

@calvinjburke The first one I watched with parent permission was either Troy or The Matrix (I was 11 or 12). The first one I saw without my parents knowing was V for Vendetta (I was 17).

I've worked in a Utah school for five years
and one of the things that broke me my first year of teaching was watching students casually drop that slur and nothing being done about it.

@allamericanmem The VR hoodies aren't sold at Allegiant. Instead the are selling the VR t-shirts at Allegiant.

@HYBE_MERCH Lowkey jealous that they are only selling the hoodies at the LIVE PLAY and not Allegiant.

I match energies so don’t get mad at me for the way you’re acting

Do you tell your pet that you won't be long when you leave the house?

I’m tired of people saying “here’s my go to lazy meal” and then they start chopping an onion

Yup, they can all afford it
