Cohost of Perfectly Good Podcast because I could literally talk for over an hour about every John Hiatt song. Servant to a dog named Vaughan. Universalist and database nerd.
I think the dog might have enough toys.

Happy Halloween from the Keymaster, Gatekeeper, and the cutest Ghostbuster ever. Unfortunately our Trunk or Treat was rained out.

I keep thinking I'll hit a point where I forgive or compartmentalize how I feel about Trump voters and MAGA.

But I can't. America is a corrupt fascist regime, our economy is tanking, and our democracy is dead (or on life support).

I can't believe more than half of America is so bigoted and stupid.

The IRS's free Direct File tool is now "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief.

This comes after tax prep companies like Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the for years to block it.

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

Just because it's been a while since I shared a picture of the best dog. Waiting patiently for me to finish work, with his ducky.

Wow. Some people are upset about gutting the national endowment for the humanities. But fear not. The Big Beautiful Bill appropriates $40 million for "for the procurement of statues" for the President's "Garden of Heroes" www.budget.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

I'm a little disappointed in social media and myself that I'm only just now learning that the stars of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure are starring in a Beckett's classic tragicomedy.

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows:

An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
