One reason to love the Olympics is that people who believe diversity isn’t our strength have to watch day after day as diversity is absolutely our strength.

Kamala Harris says she will strip the Astros of the 2017 World Series title, if elected.

@eiffeltyler And I think it matters because we say fan fiction as yet another way to deride women’s literature as frivolous or unserious. I was disappointed to see Vogue refer to it as such!

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

@eiffeltyler YES! I’ve been shouting this lately. There’s nothing wrong with something being fan fiction, but this wasn’t. And the author has been so clear that she feels like her work is literary fiction that isn’t taken seriously because of the subject matter (read: women having a life).

Happy #SOTU day! Throughout the day, we'll be sharing a thread of what different West Wingers are hoping and expecting to hear from President Biden's address tonight.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

@nerdnationguy Sir, this is fantastic. I hope other units follow your lead.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

@jordanibush This ^^^ I felt the same way but wasn’t sure if it’s because I knew what was coming next/happening.

I’d say it was more disturbing than scary (can’t explain well) but it’s definitely more anxiety producing than the movie.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

ugh, need to talk about the new ending for the film adaptation of Leave the World Behind.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

@LEBassett @TheCut @NYMag So happy for you @LEBassett and thrilled we get to read your writing again!

@jes_chastain Newswires are the way to go @AP, @Reuters, and many national news agencies. So many media organisations depend on them, that they cannot afford to get it wrong - and the speed of social media is not even a factor.

Is being 30 realizing that Ferris Bueller is the worst friend ever? #justiceforcam

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

She’s also a lovely person to be around!

@eurmie Couldn’t agree more—like make me watch that one movie I forgot I liked because nothing else is on. Please.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

Love that Olivia Rodrigo’s adult-teens have now graduated to adult-freshmen-in-college-making-bad-decisions.

[Veronica Bryant Bean @veronicabrybean]

Fantastic read—a case for West Point, Sunday School, Great Books or Ted Lasso. Whatever floats your moral fancy (which spoiler: doesn’t have to look the same for everyone).

[The Atlantic @TheAtlantic]

Moral societies don’t just happen; they have to be seeded and tended, @nytdavidbrooks argues.

That’s where the U.S. went wrong. https://t.co/9cKePEeFUh

I’m begging my elected Congressmen to figure out how to stream Spice World in the United States. Please and thank you. #spiceupyourlife

@eiffeltyler Me talking about simulations after watching the Matrix for the first time a few weeks ago.

@jonfavs @taylorswift13 @NoraPrinciotti @NathanCHubbard Still begging for a @PodSaveAmerica where you all assign Taylor Swift songs to candidates as their campaign rally songs.
