Wayne Gretzky gave me one of his trophies but I think it was clear before I was the most valuable player in the 1987 Edmonton Oilers.

In 2022 I started tracking changes in how news outlets were describing trans people, and set up a bot to record every article pushed to the Google News index based on a handful of search phrases, including “biological sex” in both the US and UK. The amount in 2023 alone was absolutely staggering.

A Northern Flicker (lower left), a bird who likes ants, was following around a Pileated Woodpecker, who was hammering out holes in tree while looking for ants. After the Pileated would leave a spot, the Flicker would check it out to see if there were any ants leftover.

Rapid response networks have evolved swiftly over the past few months. Besieged by 3000 federal mercenaries, volunteers in the Twin Cities have updated their rapid response model, developing a dynamic and resilient system.

If he would like me to explain who is right and who is wrong between “a masked goon who steps in front of a car that is making an obvious 3-point turn, as instructed, and then shoots the driver in the head 3 times”, and a woman who smiles “I’m not mad at you” as she complies with LE orders…. I can.

Option 1: impeachment & removal now before November. Sure, it's not going to happen. But that is the only full solution in our system for a president who has serially shown he is unwilling to comply with the law & Constitution. It's a terrible system. It can't be fascism-proofed otherwise.
Presidentialism, in fact, was a grave mistake & sits at the root of our current inability to properly deal with the onslaught of lawless authoritarianism. The ministerial resignations & toppling of the Mad King prime minister would have happened months (years) ago under parliamentary government.
