Don't ask me how many hours of my life I've spent listening to nasheed trap remixes

@RishiSunak Your regular reminder @RishiSunak that no human being is illegal. Ever. Stop using this fearmongering language to pander to an anxious electorate.

If you open your email to me with “Garrett,” you better either be my mom or Bernie Sanders. Anybody else just comes across like they’re exasperated.

Bernie Sanders would definitely be a Horreya guy

Can y'all imagine if, instead of sitting in silence by himself for months, Kawhi had hit the party scene on a national scale IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC? Currently feeling nothing but sympathy for y'all Rockets fans out there #nba #rockets #harden #spurs

Is it Zoom fatigue or are you expected to maintain high levels of productivity through multiple public health crises with very little government support while also being personally responsible for saving local businesses, managing your mental health, and caring for loved ones

[Garrett Shuffield @gcshuffield]

Dear professors teaching seminars: for the love of God, turn on "gallery view" in your Zoom. Your students are raising their hands and you're missing it while you talk. #academicchatter #academia

She was used for everything. Used to promote everything. Used to make people look good and socially conscious. Used to promote parties. Used for memes. Used as an example. Used and used and used. And even with all of this, she didn’t get the one thing she needed. Justice.

[Garrett Shuffield @gcshuffield]

@AITA_reddit Yes. You are the asshole.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Lori Loughlin was just sentenced to two months in prison for paying bribes to get her daughters into USC.

This is the same system that sentenced Crystal Mason, a Black mother of three, to five years for voting when she didn't realize a past felony conviction made her ineligible.

[Eliza Orlins @elizaorlins]

Lori Laughlin was just sentenced to 2 months in jail.

Earlier this year, the Manhattan DA recommended one year jail for a man who stole cough syrup and toothpaste from a Duane Reade.

There are two systems of justice in this county and this is yet another example.

@techboy_88 @tahabito It’s not about being offended, it’s about calling out unstated value judgments that, IMO, people who make maps should be more explicit about. Nothing is insignificant when it comes to shaping opinions, friend.
