By age 35, you should stop listening to the advice of people who have no context for your situation, no perspective on how fortunate they have been, and no understanding that there isn't a singular "correct" route through life.

Kids being taken from their families and literally lost in the system, kids being killed at school, kids being killed by cops, kids drinking & bathing in poisoned water, etc., but you want to police what happens in *my* uterus? I think the fuck not.

the biggest cultural mistake we've made in the last 50 years is telling people that liking nerdy shit automatically makes them smart

Hey, google docs spellcheck, just because the desert I'm writing about is very cold does not mean that I have misspelled the second word of the phrase "frozen desert."

I hope the Boba Fett prequel will dramatically change the way we think about a guy who did nothing and fell in a hole.

By the time you're 35 you should have a tbr book pile so high that you can use it as a lookout tower that allows you to scout for new books on the horizon

By age 35 you should have enough sense to ignore people telling you what you should have at age 35.

the five love languages are cats, English manor houses, cake, catching the murderer, and putting down my book to talk to you.

If I ever die in a mass shooting you have my permission to politicize the fuck out of my death in order to same someone else's life.

That's not a suggestion.
That's an order.
Yes, Republicans in the 1860s *did* end slavery and promote civil rights.
— Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) May 17, 2018
They also significantly expanded the federal government, built up the income tax, funded a huge system of public colleges, embraced reparations for slavery and, um, impeached an incompetent president.
Sex is like pizza. Turtles are having it in the sewers.

hey dudes complaining about identity politics in comics:

We have 283 monthly comics on the shelf.
158 of those feature white dudes as main characters (as either the lead or a main member of a team)
if your racist ass can't find a book to read you're just lazy and stupid
Here is a brief THREADY THREAD THREAD about writing and writing advice (and I apologize as it will unwittingly turn into a bit of self-promotion so we're all just gonna have to deal with that).

For #MayTheFourth , the ancient prayer of my people:
— Emma Bolden (@emmabo) May 4, 2018
May the Millenium Falcon rise up to meet you
May no moon be ever at your back
May the lava pits melt your Sith face
And the moisture gather soft upon your farm on Tatooine
And until we meet again,
May you only lose one hand.
I already said this, but I still cannot get my head around the people who learn that there are men who murder women over lack of sex and respond with, "So the question is, how do we get these men sex?"
— Jill Weinberger (@jillybobww) May 2, 2018
I MEAN HONESTLY WHAT IN THE EVERLOVING FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?
Sex is not something that women cruelly hoard like greedy bosses or dragons sitting on sexy piles of gold. Sex is something that women want, too. But usually not with people who threaten, demean and resent us. If that’s a problem for you, I’m sorry.
