Sorry that my ~Professional Writer's Twitter Account~ has morphed into mostly just Dan & Phil posting with a side of Catholicism, but not really THAT sorry. Everyone needs a hobby

I lost years and years due to learned helplessness, one day as a slightly better well adjusted adult I realized. 1.) everything the therapists said was true, it is a science &2.) I had to admit I was in my own way for long periods of time, and I had to cope with being wrong now

- El Papa recién operado de cáncer: "Señores, hora de volver al trabajo. Pásenme con Vladimir Putin"
🔴El papa ha hablado con Putin desde el hospital, según ha informado el Vaticano.
El pontífice le ha exigido al líder del Kremlin una tregua que permita la entrada de suministros de primeros auxilios y alimentos, así como la evacuación voluntaria de la población civil.

I cannot explain it fully, but this brought tears to my eyes.
What a gift it is to see the Holy Father celebrating a simple, reverent Mass and to sense how he loves being a priest and celebrating the Sacraments.
May God continue to heal you, Pope Leo!

said this before but a lot of people who think they are "too self aware" are actually just stuck in a constant state of viewing their lives through third person perspective. you're watching and analyzing everything you do, but you're not in the driver's seat to your own mind

I learned about the Holocaust and I was like, that's bad. Then I learned about the Civil Rights Movement and I was like, that's good.

You see how she was wronged, she finally reacted, and suddenly everyone focused on her reaction instead of what was done to her? This is exactly how men get away with provoking women and then playing the victim when they finally snap.

🚨 BREAKING:
Abdul El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries... You want to stir up all this culture war stuff.
Watters: Do you think men should be allowed to play women's sports?
Abdul El-Sayed: I'm running for the US Senate. This is crazy. I'm here trying to take on the healthcare crisis and Big Pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play which sport.

the fact that this video was filmed in Jabalia (northern Gaza) makes it a billion times worse. this is the area that held a heavy percentage of the genocide casualties and carries tens of thousands of unrecovered bodies. this is a crime scene being erased in front of our eyes.
Some IDF renovation work going on in Rafah, Gaza.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This video was not filmed in Rafah. It was filmed in Jabalia.

We simply don’t have actresses perform like this anymore, a 23 year old Jennifer Lawrence going toe to toe (outperforming really) with Amy Adams, the best of her generation. Mind you she was filming this back to back with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay

You can be in the most conservative Midwestern city and if you go into a Half Price Books it will have concentrated many of the queer people in the city into one place and created a sort of Portland microclimate.

Now pick 300 pounds of that per day, every day, in the Alabama heat. If you fail, you will be whipped. Keep in mind that the tip of a whip breaks the sound barrier (hence the cracking sound) so the feeling is not unlike being shot. Now pick 300 pounds again.

My kid didn't like the food at another kid's birthday party once so I said "you can choose the food at your party but today is about [other child], not you" and three other moms looked at me like I shot a dog in front of them
