Please Tell Me That Y'all Won't Go Back To Tiktok Once Trump Gets Whatever Nefarious Concessions He Wants

Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me.

I know there is a lot of discourse (tm) around this right now but listen to me

sometimes you do just have to lie to children.

You have gone too far. You have married Fester. You have destroyed his spirit. You have taken him from us. All that I could forgive. But, Debbie… pastels?

The legacies people leave behind in you.

My handwriting is the same style as the teacher’s who I had when I was nine. I’m now twenty one and he’s been dead eight years but my i’s still curve the same way as his.

I watched the last season of a TV show recently but I started it with my friend in high school. We haven’t spoken in four years.

I make lentil soup through the recipe my gran gave me.

I curl my hair the way my best friend showed me.

I learned to love books because my father loved them first.

How terrifying, how excruciatingly painful to acknowledge this. That I am a jigsaw puzzle of everyone I have briefly known and loved. I carry them on with me even if I don’t know it. How beautiful.

that james baldwin quote where he says, “it took many years of vomiting up all the filth i’d been taught about myself, and half-believed, before i was able to walk on the earth as though i had a right to be here.”

If I was a teacher, I would make a list of false statements and then have my kids write a paper proving that the statement is false. Examples of false statements might be:

[State Im teaching in] has no Rowen trees.

Singapore outlawed the sale of teriyaki sauce

The word biscuit comes from bi meaning two and cuit meaning baking pan

Wearing your hair in pigtails can cause head cancer

A turtle sheds its shell like a hermit crab

Because all those things are kinda hard to disprove and it teaches kids research and misinformation and how to build a case. Also theres lots of ways they could find 'proof'

sid wright invoking a new god of sleep with the power of his desperation and killing hundreds of people in the process as the foreshadowing for paige raising a god of martyrs to lay waste to armies by being invoked by desperate dying casualties of war.... MMMMMM
