Digital nomad. Visual storyteller. Bio-geographer. Online freestylist. Radical common-centrist. Mzungu. Keyboard warrior + snowflake = unapologetically so.

A little old to still be called 'children,' though.
'Spawn' works for me.

I suppose one way to look at it is that he was doing his civic duty by ensuring he didn't spread his germs or, say, the coronavirus.
Nah — kidding. It was malice aforethought, pure and simple. That, and basic douchery.

Civility doesn't come easily to a pig. The two-legged kind, anyway. The four-legged kind, well, they're just fine. 🥂

This works. 🥂
In moderation. Or so they tell me. That part, I wouldn't know about.

Or make that an Annoyed Norwegian.

Well, I can think of one that trumps all others (apologies for the choice of verb): There are any number of ways to better spend your time.
Your blood pressure will thank you for it, too.

Screaming into a void, yes, feeling defeated, yes. But never question your service to your country. This government is corrupt and contemptible, but you answer to a higher calling. When you go to bed tonight, just remember: The Founding Fathers had you in mind. Not that Thing.

Remember when @KenBurns did an enthralling doc on people reading the #GettysburgAddress, for @PBS?
I have a dream (bad choice of words, I know, but still) where celebs and other notables do that again, but this time with the Mueller Report.
And perhaps Burns can do the film... 🤔 twitter.com/CheriJacobus/s…

#Truth.
Perhaps @billmaher should read this and learn something.
But as we all know, he won't read — he certainly doesn't listen to points-of-view other than his own— unless it's something his staff have prepared for him.

Yes, have blogged on this. One of the most fascinating, significant breakthroughs in paleoanthropological thinking over the past couple of years or so.

Looks vaguely Tsarist to me. Russian Orthodox Church, the works.
Now there's an undergraduate essay for you.

1. You're right. 100%
2. They never listen. Not ever. They know better than you. Always.
That's the essential tragedy in all this. And I don't use the word 'tragedy' lightly.
It's so frustrating to see this happen, and to know that Trump will laugh.
@DNC, @DNCWarRoom, wake up.

Iowa so white.
NH so white, too.
FFS, you know that.
Besides, how many rural swing voters do you know who vote in Dem caucuses? Wake up.
