Pretty sure the writer was going for A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again and sees himself as David Foster Wallace and thought Brandon Sanderson was going to be his cruise ship.
When do newborns start understanding bits? It’s my main method of relating to people and I feel like I’m losing my 7 week old daughter’s attention.

The NYPD just *overspent* their overtime budget by 100M, and the is proposing cutting public library hours. What Adams and his crew are doing to this city is criminal (literally).

When someone tells you that Confederates were about “states' rights” or “southern pride,” point out that their Constitution left enslavers proud on this day in 1861 that they had permanently protected "negro slavery" and prohibited "states' rights" to pass antislavery laws. 11/11

Even if you aren’t targeted by these bills, please stand up for those who are. These bills won’t stop and end in Tennessee, and it definitely won’t stop with just drag. This is an ongoing attempt to erase LGBTQ+ people. Being queer should not be a criminal offense.

'Drag Race' stars Aura Mayari and Eureka speak out against Tennessee's drag ban bill after being passed by state lawmakers: 'It is a mask used to hide discrimination toward the LGBTQ+ community.' ew.com/tv/rupauls-dra
