Just a reminder that George Conway is not fundraising right now to run against a MAGA republican.
He is fundraising to run against progressive Democrats.

it is kind of wild that you can just be watching a fuckin hitler pop off and start invading places and snatching heads of state for a second act, but if you say the thing that you want to happen to him in order to stop that, it would be considered violent

Realized recently that I'm extremely burned out from *waves at past 6 months* but I didn't recognize it until now because my antidepressants made me feel chill about it instead of agonized. Brains are weird!

Amphibia 😤 Okay, I have not watched many shows (or even season 2 of Andor) but Amphibia DOES slap. Those frogs are cookin'
Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

This should be major news: literally dozens of book bans in Canada today, because of a ministerial order by Alberta's provincial government. The titles are being withheld by the school districts... I think Canadians have a right to know what books are being banned in our public schools.
Today, Alberta's two biggest school divisions say dozens of books have been taken off shelves as the province's ban took effect this week.
34 titles were removed by the Edmonton Public School Division, and 44 were removed by the Calgary Board of Education:

One of my uncles was kidnapped by ICE yesterday. He was always there for my family and even helped my family afford my graduation party when I graduated college. 💔
Anything helps. ICE has no humanity. Hard workers literally being torn from their families.

I wish I'd thought sooner to explain to tradpub editors that illustrating a graphic novel is not like writing a prose novel or illustrating a picture book, a 250-page GN is actually like illustrating eight picture books.

THIS: "When the mere depiction of LGBTQ people is framed as a personal injury, the law is no longer protecting religious freedom. It’s just enforcing religious fragility, the idea that public schools always need to work around the most intolerant parent in the system."
If your faith requires "damage control" because your kid might learn that gay people EXIST, the problem isn’t the book.
It’s your religion.
Unfortunately, because of SCOTUS, a judge has sided with the Christian dad.

I oppose the Trump-Vance administration’s unauthorized and unconstitutional military actions in Venezuela.
America does not need another ill-conceived ‘forever war.’ Trump can’t even run our country well and now he’s focused on trying to run another one.
