Hygge is my favorite.
Baking, hiking, digging in the dirt, smart and compassionate friends, and living out my dream life in Maine.
And also fighting for democracy and human rights.

If you got $1 million, you can pretty much commit any crime you want and Trump will pardon you. I would recommend Pam Bondi’s brother for representation. He seems to get the best results, for some reason.

You literally cannot turn on a news show without hearing another story proving how reprehensible this regime is. They held a meeting of small farmers, but a black farmer from Virginia was denied an invite because “they don’t wanna deal with DEI.”

I never considered 2026. It's not a year I ever imagined, and 58 -- the age I'll turn -- is not an age I ever thought of myself as being.

Senator Bernie Sanders says he’ll be introducing a national wealth tax to emulate California’s — as billionaires park their yachts together for new year’s while health care premiums skyrocket for millions.

Are you like my dad and uncles and grandfathers who could fix snowplows and chainsaws and who installed electrical and plumbing and knew how to frame a room? Are you chopping and hauling wood?

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation
![. . . very cooperative, but the police at that point had to let [redacted] know that what she had done that she could be facing charges.
Q And that was after they had told her earlier that she didn't need an attorney present, correct?
A Exactly.
Q Okay. So this happens to her with the Palm Beach Police Department and did the Palm Beach Police actually present or propose charging [redacted]?
A They did get a probable cause affidavit against [redacted].
Q And is that why Ms. [redacted] and her attorney were concerned about her testimony here?
A Yes.
Q Now was a subpoena issued for Ms. [redacted] on behalf of this grand jury?
A Yes, it was.
Q And before Ms. [redacted] would comply with that, did she -- did her attorney request some sort of order?
A Yes.
Q And what did he ask for?
A He asked for immunity for [redacted].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eoss3vmzem55cm5kuddhdmwn/bafkreiariijffjjrgfh26o22jjr76pwprinvnbpkcho5lyi2sucfbqlooy@jpeg)

Imagine interviewing a victim of torture and independently confirming the details of his torture and then being told you can’t broadcast it because the people who ordered the torture wouldn’t give their side of the story.

Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...
