Just a guy. Trying to be kind, and clever. I WANT to like people. I love dogs, movies, games, Nerdy stuff, and advocating about Post Concussion Syndrome.
Keep taking breaks from social media (good) but when I come back, I go to the more toxic places and forget about here (bad.) Need to spend more time on here.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year

And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor

And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

Got some scary news. Cooper has potential for 2 types of cancer. He had to have surgery to get a tumor removed and the other is inoperable, and making it difficult for him to Pee. Going to fight it with him but pre grieving a little. I’m scared I’ll lose my best friend.

I think on Blue Sky I’m more likely to be preaching to the choir rather than screaming into the void, but…
the biggest mistake the dem strategists made in 2024 was not letting him cook
Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires.

This is a bill I cannot support.

Critical reporting from Stephanie Nolen on what the interruption of TB funding actually means for those living with the disease--and those caring for them.

Tuberculosis Resurgent as Trump Funding Cut Disrupts Treatment Globally
The United States was the major funder of tuberculosis programs. Now hundreds of thousands of sick patients can’t find tests or drugs, and risk spreading the disease.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore.

Chris Murphy: "This deal that Donald Trump just cut with the mayor of New York -- it's a big deal ... they did that out in the open on TV because it's a signal to everybody else out there that the law will be applied differently to you if you are loyal to the president."

What’s wild to me is the false reality of NewsMax, OAN, Twitter, TS etc is so complete now I AM THE ONE WHO SOUNDS CRAZY. “The government is doing ___ but you’re not hearing about it on the news that you watch, you have to go to Reuters or AP to know the truth!”

I’d love to have a conversation about something low key, just a casual conversation about something.

Just some history with no real bearing on current events.
James Madison wrote of the necessity of the separation of powers:
“The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

When other, more articulate people say what I’m thinking better than I do.
My instinct is to make the case that USAID is extremely good, actually. But I feel like it’s more important to say, “What is happening is antagonistic to the foundational document of the nation.”

Just a random factoid that has nothing to do with current events…
For no reason at all, I feel compelled to mention that for the overwhelming majority of Germans in the 1920s, the appeal of Hitler was the promise of economic revitalization of the country.

I was just thinking to myself “man, it’s been forever since I listened to my favorite podcast.” I checked, and I had 1. ONE. I listened through last week. MAN this month took forever.
