Vonnegut, Saroyan, Tolstoi, Kingsolver, W.T.Vollmann, Upton Sinclair, Cormac Mccarthy, "The Count of Monte Cristo". I could go on, but you get the idea.

I had the opportunity to review the work experience and skills of numerous people who were laid off or fired from public health jobs by Donald Trump.

I want every taxpayer to know that the US has lost an immeasurable number of the smartest, most experienced, and hardworking people on the planet.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Watch this and suddenly your own problems won’t feel so heavy. The good news: people stepped up and raised about $246 k+ on GoFundMe to help this woman and her baby.

There really are good people out there.

You’re going to have to bear with me, as I haven’t been sleeping well for a decade or so.

Admittedly, I’m not at my best these days.

I’m exhausted from having to give all the sh*ts about people that you’re supposed to be giving, along with my own.

In Trump's effort to secure plenary authority — the same absolute, dictatorial power Hitler wielded — Republicans in Indiana have rebuked the pedophile president. There will be no redistricting in Indiana, greatly hindering Trump's ongoing Nazification of America. 😳👇

China & other countries which faced Trump tariffs have now had 7 months to find new trading partners for their exports & imports. Should the tariffs be removed, the US won’t find those countries so willing to return to an untrustworthy & antagonistic trade partner. US banks stopped lending to Trump

A reminder that in 2022, President Biden signed the “Eliminating Limits to Justice for Child Sex Abuse Victims Act,” eliminating the statute of limitations to file civil action for federal sex offenses. Seems relevant.
