The Walmart x Grinch ads unreasonably aggravate me. Like we all know that Grinch was the most anti-consumerist of all the Grinch movies, right? Right!?

Trump: “I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene…”
Donald J. Trump -+ @realDonaldTrump I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of "Congresswoman” Marjorie Taylor Greene, of the Great State of Georgia. Over the past few weeks, despite my creating Record Achievements for our Country including, a Total and Complete Victory on the Shutdown, Closed Borders, Low Taxes, No Men in Women's Sports or Transgender for Everyone, ending DEI, stopping Biden's Record Setting Inflation, Biggest Regulation Cuts in History, stopping EIGHT WARS, rebuilding our Military, being RESPECTED by every Country in the World (as opposed to being the laughingstock that we were just 12 months ago!), having Trillions of Dollars (Record Setting!) INVESTED in the U.S.A., having created the "HOTTEST" Country anywhere in the World from being a DEAD Country just 12 months ago (and so much more!), all I see "Wacky” Marjorie do is COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN! It seemed to all begin when I sent her a Poll stating that she should not run for Senator, or Governor, she was at 12%, and didn't have a chance (unless, of course, she had my Endorsement — which she wasn't about to get!). She has told many people that she is upset that I don't return her phone calls anymore, but with 219 Congressmen/women, 53 U.S. Senators, 24 Cabinet Members, almost 200 Countries, and an otherwise normal life to lead, I can't take a ranting Lunatic's call every day. I understand that wonderful, Conservative people are thinking about primarying Marjorie in her District of Georgia, that they too are fed up with her and her antics and, if the right person runs, they will have my Complete and Unyielding Support. She has gone Far Left, even doing The View, with their Low IQ Republican hating Anchors. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

I never got to say this but Cheney was a totem. With his death the sigils waned and the barriers fell, ushering in the Democratic victories and the ascendancy of Mamdani.

Seeing Trump tell a woman "You don't know nothing about Crypto" is the final transition into full-on Crypto Bro.

A hand holds three business cards between its thumb and finger. The business cards are the same design but are printed in three different color schemes.

I consistently hate having to fight against both the "peaceful protest" absolutists and the "every protest is cringe" folks.

We have friends everywhere pass it around!

"Make a drawing, make a painting, make a poem, and see where you stand, not in relation to others and not just in your head, but in the air. It’s painful, it’s embarrassing, but it’s one of the few things that will show you who you really are, who you were, and who you might become."

Organizers are exhausted. More people are needed so you should also be organizing.

Let's all to take a deep breath & understand that we have reached the phase in fascism where if they want to declare you a criminal, you are a criminal. You can not magically avoid it, or do exactly the right thing to stay off the list. Fascism must always have enemies, and one day you will be one.
