Hate is a tell.
There is no good person in this world who ever lived who needs you to hate anything or anybody.
Be aware when someone is trying to get you to hate something. They’re not doing it to help you. They’re doing it to use you.

This is a brilliant thread, making important points in as well-written way as I can imagine.
I wish I could write my own thoughts this well.
Isa-Lee is smart. Be smart like Isa-Lee.

They know what they, themselves would do if they also know they'd get away with it.
They gaslight us.
The anger is because the gaslighting doesn't work anymore.

Had a great time in Reno visiting the #CatsInLaw . Family and food was great.
Reno is such a funny town. It doesn’t seem to know what it wants to be.
These two billboards placed right next to eachother was hilarious to me. Quite the story being told!
I guess the moral is “watch your backs, folks!”

Thanks to all who saw my puzzle “The Sounds of Music” in the Sunday NYT. The good comments on all the boards were fun to read and the bad comments were even more fun.
I hadn’t intended on the war between “SO” and “SOL” among musicians, and if it weren’t so niche I’d make it a #SpoutWar here.

Our hearts go to our friends and family getting stomped with tornados in Nebraska right now.
Tornados are usually survivable events, and Nebraskans by and large are very smart about their safety measures. These are awfully big. I hope everyone’s ok.

I’m stuffing goodie bags for a party and realize I don’t have enough tissue paper to go around.
So I’m thinking… what if I use actual tissues? The guests will be all “hey look at that - free Kleenex! This guy’s a hero.”

You know who would be fun to talk to?
The very first butt-dialer in the world. Did they know they were making history? Did they have anyone to talk to about the momentous occasion?

Wow what a game so far. Tough that Caitlin had that little lapse of attention on her dribble to give SC a buffer to their slim lead, but still, what a half.
These athletes are *good* and playing *hard*.

This is of course true. Yet…
There’s a hill I may yet die on: “Apology” is overrated. “Acknowledgement” is the good stuff.
Refusal to apologize is refusal to acknowledge wrongdoing. Fake apologies that also avoid acknowledgment are every bit as common.
Apology overrated. Acknowledgement good.

Good on Rep. Swalwell to remind us that hypocrisy is a tell.
It’s how those who want to dominate over you demonstrate that they can.
