folks, my best friend, who's really more like family to me — who has truly, earnestly been family to me in every sense that's transcendent and eternal — is hospitalized with double pneumonia. please pray for him, or hope/wish/manifest, whatever you do, but something. — PolitiTweet.org

@NotAbouThatBase the funny thing being that seeing the mystery that's part of eros is actually the higher attainment, and believing there's no mystery whatsoever involved is a reduced understanding. that very reduced understanding is extremely widespread now — PolitiTweet.org

there's total ignorance, there's knowing just enough to be completely wrong about something, there's knowing enough to realize there's quite a bit more to learn and so you ought to proceed with caution, and way down the line, understanding. sex ed should move kids from 2 to 3 — PolitiTweet.org

even at the point that i was in jr high/high school, the whole thing seemed so absurd. all the mystification of sex itself seemed like going in the wrong direction. every kid had already seen hardcore porn, some of them quite a lot of it. cat was pretty outta the bag — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

in TX public schools aren't required to teach sex ed whatsoever and your parents can opt you out of any health/bio module on sex. they did bring in a program where a guy hoisted up a giant fancily wrapped gift and said: this is your virginity. a kid said "but i wanted a present!" — PolitiTweet.org

For me, the guiding value is love for the human person. When you weave together stories, you're weaving together the substance of human lives: Memory, dignity, experience, hope, effort. People put these things in our hands, so we should weave carefully with dire restraint. — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, objective good is sometimes accomplished through the means of journalism, which is what we all hope for. But that means some other value, some final, end value, has to guide not just the ethical practice of journalism, but the vocation itself. It's a means, not an end. — PolitiTweet.org

@Nickofthe_North very easy. put the steak in a ziploc bag, beat it with a meat tenderizer until it's flat. pat it dry. salt and pepper it. dredge it in buttermilk, then flour+cornstarch+seasoning. fry it in hot, hot, hot oil, fast as you can. then make gravy! — PolitiTweet.org

sources are calling it "a weeknight surprise," and "a historic day in the bruenig household": the day mom got a snowcone machine. in other news, chicken fried steak with cajun gravy, for some old school southern nasty https://t.co/VgwFIpo66U — PolitiTweet.org
