Serena Williams has been named a Fashion Icon by the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

Although I’d never heard of this outfit before now, it was well deserved, and more grease to her elbows . . .

Dapper Dino No @dinosaur dapper Now that #Xitter is a thing, I'm just here to remind you that "X" in pinyin (the current standard for Latinizing Chinese) is pronounced like "sh." What this implies for the pronunciation of Xitter, should be fairly obvious.

Let me get this straight. Republicans are banning books, drag shows, and life-saving gender-affirming care, all to "protect children"

But they're also rolling back child labor laws, blocking gun reform, and passing laws to force adolescents to give birth.

Do I have that right?

It’s not a glitch. It's a feature.
Conservatives do not want to raise kids that possess critical thinking skills.

A diverse array of books gave me a level of empathy and a wider world view than I would not have otherwise gotten. They aim to prevent that from happening in other kids.

There is an all-out attack on education occurring.

HISD's Mike Miles will convert some libraries into discipline areas-

A federal judge (appointed by Trump) issued a search warrant at the request of the Director of the FBI (appointed by Trump). It was executed by a DOJ attorney (appointed by Trump) who charged him with violating a
law (passed by Trump). There's not a single witness involved who's a Democrat. They're all
handpicked (by Trump).
His lawyers. His employees.
Their communications.
Their photos.
Everything.
THEM: "What a Democratic witch hunt."

This driver overperformed for the police with an impressive backflip during a sobriety test. It still did not get him out of a DUI. Probable cause should play second fiddle to acrobatics. 😆🤣

Georgia grand jury is done investigating the Orange Overlord's attempts to interfere in the election.

For me, the investigation began and ended with a phone call. "All I wanna do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have," said the man who would be King in this Constitutional Republic.
