I didn’t know I needed a Winter’s Orbit graphic novel, but now I must have a Winter’s Orbit graphic novel. @avoliot

JonBenét's murder is the first thing I really remember, news-story-wise. I actually refused to do pageantry because I thought that if I did, I was gonna get raped and murdered like she did. I still think it was her parents, too.

Michael Jackson's Thriller video/movie coming out. It was a super big deal.

I always say Nixon/Vietnam, but I think that’s a memory of a story I was told. It’s probably really Jimmy Carter getting elected/1976 Olympics.

I will be 50 in four days and this is verifiable fact.

And they’re still going to be partying while the nerds get the vaccine.

The morning of election day in 2016, Hillary was given a 75% chance of winning. Take nothing for granted.

I refuse to participate in anything the National Park Service sponsors since they decided to side with border patrol in forcefully removing my tribe's land protectors from a border wall construction site. I'm tired of hearing about fat bear week. This whole thing is just a sore reminder that even agencies made with the best intentions and that seem cool on the outside are ultimately tools for colonization at the end of the day 😒

oppression isn’t generational and trying to frame politics as “the old people are wrong and the young people are right” erases the fact that there are old people who have been fighting the good fight for decades and the fact that there are young people who are literally nazis

Plus while there might be less old people fighting the good fight it’s usually because they were killed or were part of the minorities that have poor living conditions that kill you early

As came up recently, in fact: Seniors Are More Conservative Because the Poor Don’t Survive to Become Seniors

WHERE IS THE OSCAR?????
