I had a shortlived Tumblr once called "Your Fave is Copacetic," that was just pictures of badass famous people hanging out being cool. This photo would have been perfect for it.
And here it is! yourfaveiscopacetic.tumblr.com
Should I resurrect this as a Twitter account?
Your wish has been heard and your wish has been granted: @FaveIsCopacetic is live. I'll upload the Tumblr stuff in fits and starts, and add new content as time goes on.
Feel free to @ me over there with suggestions for photos! @FaveIsCopacetic, that's the name—that name again is @FaveIsCopacetic.

The argument against impeaching Kavanaugh strikes me as very similar to the argument against impeaching Trump. "If the Senate won't convict, why bother?"
But it's not at all clear to me that, say, a series of 2022 House hearings on Kavanaugh's alleged sexual assaults, financial misdeeds, and perjuries, culminating in an impeachment vote and Senate trial, would be a political boon for the GOP.
The Republicans pushed Kavanaugh through because they knew that time and attention were working against them—if they thought the allegations against him were harming the Dems without imperiling GOP votes to confirm, they would have let them drag on.

It just occurred to me that since I'm in charge of Your Fave Is Copacetic, and I can do whatever I want with it, there's nothing stopping me from doing a whole day of photos of Georgia O'Keefe. Dozens. Hundreds. THOUSANDS.
I mean.
And if you haven't seen her Stieglitz nudes? Well.

Note the knock-on effects of the atrocious headline. Alene is making an important point about politics, justice, and structural failure, and the article she links claims to be about who did and didn't "fit in with the privileged kids."
It's an important article about sexual assault and government malfeasance, which means that it's going to be linked all over the place in that context. But the headline makes it look like everybody's tweeting the wrong link.
In order to know why someone's tweeting THIS article in relationship to THIS story, you have to have read the article already. Which is exactly the opposite of what should happen, and what the Times, in theory, should want to happen.

I have a medical condition that causes me to become extremely ill on my period without birth control. For about 6 months, I was a victim of Connecticut's religious exemption policy at a local @CVSHealth.
As noted in the Yelp review above, @cvspharmacy, employees repeatedly deceived me into believing I couldn't get the prescription anywhere.

I became very ill. While posting my review just now, I noticed this one for the same location.
I should be eligible for some kind of damages. What a backward state this is.

I had a go-round with yet another wokebeard this morning. This one actually claims to recognise the conflict of interests in giving transwomen access to women's spaces, until you prod him a bit, that is.
Then it becomes clear that he's just another "they're all lovely women and you're just mean hags" type. No amount of evidence will convince him that there is even an issue.
They're cloning these in a cupboard - droves of men with absolutely no skin in the game who nevertheless waste women's time arguing from some lofty plane that we're just an identity, sex is a spectrum or socially constructed, or that we hate trans people.

Sope au in which princess Hoseok is locked away in a tower and one day his enemy since kids, Yoongi, the doctor’s son stumbles with his cute deer pet upon the tower and he reluctantly saves Hoseok
Hs: why did you even save me? I know you've despised me since we were kids
Yg: Thought I might use the money plus what was my father going to say if he knew I saw you in a tower but didn't rescue you?
Hs: whoever rescues me gets to marry me too and now you've ruined it
Yg:like hell I'm gonna marry you.
He petted the deer’s head.
Hs: i don't want to marry you
/obviously/ but I'm saying no one is gonna marry me cuz /you/ saved me and whoever saves me, gets my hand
Yg:do you want me to put you back in the tower?
Hs:no
Yg: then shut up

Dear @FBI @FBITampa I'm Richard. They lied under subpoenas to hide the tampered jail call.
@FBI @FBITampa I asked and fought so hard for the call. PG, the PD evaded, dodged, threatened, tried to make deals to avoid pulling the call once the case blew up the smear. I have all the emails. I had to call the jail to confirm calls. All on my pin. I called my sister. Once on another pin.
@FBI @FBITampa The jail confirmed the calls. It wascut short. Why lie under a subpoena? Honest mistake? The pin was the tell. Intimidation. The cold cased my mother case on Facebook the same day.

Here is why Cynthia Erivo, in particular, should not play Harriet Tubman.

TL; DR: There’s a troubling pattern of Cynthia repeatedly, deliberately, selectively *choosing* to not give respect to African-American heritage – the heritage of Harriet Tubman.
#HarrietDeservesBetter
Note: There’s an argument to be made against Africans/non-DOS Brits playing important African-American figures – & vice versa. Performance & perspective, where & how we take up space, larger economic & cultural issues at play.

Others have unpacked that; this thread won’t.
This thread is about why Cynthia Erivo should not play Harriet Tubman, “the Moses of her people” & a sacred African-American ancestor. It goes beyond Cynthia’s birthplace, accent, heritage & even her association with an ethnic bigot.

It rests on a pattern of behavior & choices.
