This will distract you from the chaos
Happy Friday! We made it through the week and are officially into the holiday stretch! We're having rain and winds today so I had a luscious chance to sleep in, so here is the second place coffee shop vote-getter from Monday. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Decided to make it five signed books, not three, I'm giving away to people who share this.

Because my thieving ex-publishers can fuck off.

Because I believe this book is good enough to be read and enjoyed for many years.

Because it's the only pension I'll have.

And because why fucking not.
I've removed the paywall permanently from this piece, which is a chapter from my novel Villager, told entirely in the form of an online village message board. If you like it, you'll probably like the book. If you don't, you won't...

The Village Message Board
Its authenticity was discredited because of his reputation, but also because he was quick with gin at the time and wearing an item of knitwear back to front.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

I really dislike that the current iteration of the world is basically “you have to suffer fools gladly and if you make fun of the fools for being fools, you are an elitist.”

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Three times in the past two weeks, editorials at the 'Washington Post' failed to disclose that they focused on matters in which owner Jeff Bezos had a material interest.

Trump is using taxpayer dollars to fund propaganda about himself, spending your money on the most expensive political ad of the year while billionaires get tax cuts and working families lose their healthcare.

This is your money and your life they’re messing with.
U.S. government pays for 2025's most expensive political ad campaign
The next closest ad campaign is the $41 million effort to support California's redistricting measure.

Republicans in Congress are panicking and hiding from their constituents during this government shutdown because they know their constituents want to keep their healthcare.
 
Let’s keep the pressure on. Stand up, speak out. Your stories matter.

My latest in my fight against the Washington Post.

I’ve filed a grievance against the Post through the WaPo Guild— and have sent a letter to Washington Post challenging my firing.

Proud to have @normeisen.bsky.social + @katiephang.bsky.social in my corner.

The Washington Post Accused Me of “Gross Misconduct.” Here's My Response.
This fight isn’t just about my job — it’s about who gets punished for telling the truth, and who gets protected for spreading hate and violence.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

How can we fix corruption in government?
 
Step one: ban stock trading across all 3 branches of government and hold our public servants accountable.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".
