When ICE was in Cheboygan last week one of my friends, he's Odawa, and one of our 'white' friends went out looking for them because the Odawa "looks Mexican". JFC this country needs an enema.

I say his gently, but…
There’s something unspeakably shameful The United States letting people go hungry.
Not because its government doesn’t fix it —
but because tomorrow a few private Americans could, and never notice the cost.
That’s the part that sits wrong.

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:
"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

The most depressing lesson of the Trump era is that scandals don’t matter if the perpetrator and their supporters don’t feel shame.

PSA: Best stuffing ever.
Put good hearty bread, stale or toasted, in large bowl.
Sauté onion, garlic, fennel till soft in ample oil/butter. Add herbs until they are warm. (Sage and tarragon are my faves.) Salt, pepper to taste. Add to bread.
Add tinned smoked oysters, dried cherries. Mix. Stuff.

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide.

The “Piggy” is exactly what domestic abusers do behind closed doors. He expects us to keep up the facade that he’s not a cruel bastard.
It means Trump has concluded he owns America. He feels entitled to what he wants when he wants how he wants.
If it got under your skin, consider that may be why.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

I'm really sorry to have subjected all of you to all this NYC posting but it's really been the most breathtakingly ugly race, particularly given that Mamdani has the affect and manner of a Sesame Street character
I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

If you don’t vote, no one cares what you think.
Be a voter. Pick the better candidate. Then let whoever wins know how they are doing.
It’s any citizen’s OBLIGATION.
It’s the cost of having sewers and roads and schools. Hell of a deal.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.

People. The East Wing was built in 1942.
Tearing it down is still disgusting. But let’s be realistic. It can be rebuilt.
The psyches of young people watching masked military brutalizing people daily - this is much harder to heal.
May it (at least) emphasize the preciousness of peace.

I think normies care more about the East Wing than a lot of other atrocities. Because its destruction cannot be explained away and there are no nuances they can decide not to think about.
