I'm laughing with you. I write. I live in a fifth wheel traveling the dystopian US. Ask me anything about RV life except where i am.

I like painting and trees and writing and dogs and photography and human rights

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

They're making cars too curvy now. Everything looks like a dang oval. Do not explain the reasons to me please. I need cars to look like this

Customs and Border Patrol also needs to be dissolved and re-formed (why the fuck is customs even a security agency?).

Hell, the DHS should be completely dissolved, most of its powers distributed to other departments, and re-formed as a much smaller department with a narrow mandate.
post deleted but it’s abolish ICE now and always has needed to happen

I spent part of my year working on a documentary about the social safety net that hangs underneath immigrant communities in Central and SoCal. Ordinary-ass people doing extraordinary things for their neighbors. Everywhere we went we found the helpers, and every single one of them gives me courage
What gave you courage in 2025?

I don't know how many times it needs to be said that you absolutely should not let fucking "AI" anywhere near your legal contracts, either in creating them or evaluating them, but apparently it needs to be said at least one more time, so allow me to say it again, here, right now

My favorite thing about Frog and Toad is that it is the story of two men deeply and obviously in love with one another, drawn as a tribute to his lifelong partner by a gay man long before their relationship was socially sanctioned.
Then Frog and Toad went out onto the front porch to wait for the mail.

They sat there, feeling happy together.

Once again reminding you that masking in all public contexts means you VERY RARELY get sick from contagious diseases.

Not just COVID. Flu. Stomach bugs. Garden variety sniffles.

Guys no billionaire is "leaving California," they're at best gonna leave California for exactly 185 days a year and domicile at some mansion resort in Utah or Montana or USVI but still be in California a lot (but also this will be too big of a hassle for many and they'll just pay the tax)

Buttons are back. Knobs are back. Dumb devices are back. Own-it-forever software is back. Print is back. Personal websites and chronological feeds are back. Touching grass is back. People keep saying 2015, but it’s not far enough. The entire 2010s were a mistake. We must retvrn to… 2009.
Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

We didn't survive and thrive as a species because we had warriors or hunters - pretty much every omnivore can manage that.

We did so because we developed Grandmothers, and domesticated Dogs.

Community is what defines us as a species, and every "self-reliant" libertarian shitweasel be damned.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
