Literature-loving, history-reading, cat-worshipping, dog-following troll-squisher. The bleeding heart liberal your crazy uncle loves to hate. I write books you wouldn't want to get caught reading.

Ironically, ED meds could be included in restrictions under the Comstock Act. Amirite?
Maybe require proof of marriage plus notarized letter from wife authorizing the function of husband's 'power tools'.

Right now, there's a lot of journalists and talking heads trying to tell the Dems they need to change their messaging, instead of being honest about the racism, misogyny, and lack of education on the issues that made people vote for a criminal-sociopath.

Quite a few Americans like the idea of strongman rule. Essential to it is the idea that a strongman will be your strongman. He won't.

Tuning out legacy media. Many independent media outlets continue to thrive and have seen a spike in growth.
Since the election, some disappointed in the results are tuning out the news media as a way to take care of themselves.
The latest news? Not right now, thanks.
Some people disappointed in Donald Trump’s win are quitting the news entirely.

Difficult to even move. The crowd's angry and apparently ready for another round from the Russian regime. I suppose this time people have more tactical tools with them compared to yesterday's spontaneity. #GeorgiaProtests

Things developing faster than I can get the information. The protest is very strong in Batumi. They blocked the city entrance and climbed the City Hall too, from where they waved 🇬🇪🇪🇺 flags. #GeorgiaProtests

Six decades later, Star Trek may still be the only franchise based on the ideas that diversity is strength, justice is the measure of civilization, bounty is to be shared, peace is worth the price, and all these things can be achieved.
