Off to get my face electrolysized for 2 hours. Wonder if the curls will get zapped straight?

Gay Liberation (1981) by George Segal, Stanford University, Palo Alto California. One of two that were created to honor the Stonewall Riots, Stanford acquired this when another location balked because of potential controversy. It has been vandalized at times over the years. One such incident required its removal to restore and Stanford students "stood in" as real life substitutes till it got back #Art #publicart #artphotography #photography #artwork #gay #sculpture #LGBTQIA+

Boss: OK, now let’s hear from this team. There’s no such thing as a stupid question.

Me: Hey Brenda, you go first. Show the boss he shouldn’t underestimate you.

I had a really good night out at #TheWaterRats last night. I went to see @skaly, who was fantastic, and was impressed by some of the other acts, too. A nice variety of excellent music.

I need more #dutch content in my timeline

Dear New York Times,
Forcing women to give birth against their will is “big government.” Protecting an 88-year-old program like Social Security isn’t. Whether you agree with Biden on the fine points, it’s obvious that he’s trying to save rational, democratic government from the ongoing fascist assault. That’s why it’s so disheartening to see the Times adopt the cynical framing of the fascists, as this headline does.

There are some really kind people here, that constantly make me go to someone I love and say "look at what this person said about my song, that's so wonderful and kind..." and smile a lot. It's not an easy time for me, so I just want you all to know your support means a lot to me. Thank you ❤️

About ten years ago a flying squirrel snuck into my house and spent a few hours playing hide-and-seek with my cat. Anyways. Here's the best photo you're likely to ever see of a flying squirrel hiding inside a #sunmicrosystems E4000 server chassis. #retrocomputing #mammals

Zelensky hugs BBC Ukrainian reporter at news conference

During a press conference, a BBC Ukrainian journalist rose to her feet and prefaced her question by saying she would like to give #Zelensky a hug, but would probably not be allowed.

“Why not?” Zelensky responded, before vacating his lectern and offering a warm embrace.

Hello everyone, I'm new to mastodon because I'm sick of FB which is gladly deleted 🙃

I'm excited and overwhelmed but dunno how or where to start lol 😆

No makeup and a little bit of stubble because I need a better morning routine, but we've got spring-like weather this week (it'll get cold this weekend), so I went with a spring-like top.

You ever have a dream with another person in it and, the next time you see them, you keep staring at them and telepathically asking if they want to talk about it, but they’re not responding because they’re clearly too embarrassed about the super weird stuff that happened in the dream?

Social media is a powerful tool with the potential to amplify both positive and harmful messages.

As a Member of Oversight Dems, I will utilize every opportunity to question social media executives about their plans to combat disinformation campaigns and hate online.

People who don't speak a word of German are far too confident in their ability to assassinate baby Hitler if given the opportunity to time travel.

Took the dog for a walk this morning.

Every so often, patience is rewarded. For 30 minutes I watched this tricolored heron fishing in a canal. He would be very still, tense up, then take wing & pounce on the fish. He then ventured down by a reflection of a yellow blossomed tree and I captured him in a ‘dance’ above the water.
