I hope he isn't the nominee. He's loud. Progressive candidates need to be loud right now.

Pritzker and Newsom are making themselves frontrunners. They are taking on the administration. Do I want better candidates? Sure. Can I create them? Can I push a progressive to confront authoritarianism credibly and with strength/results? That seems not to be a skill I have.

We're all headed under the bus now... I campaigned hard for a strong progressive last time. And then voted to save democracy. I don't like Newsom. I also don't want to live in a country run by Stephen Miller.

If the next presidential election is between Gavin Newsom and Donald Trump or JD Vance, are you sitting it out? I'm not a Newsom supporter, just someone who watched a lot of people sit out the last election and now instead of an imperfect president, we're facing fascism.

Please tell me what you're going to do with them. I have an overabundance of small, beautiful, blindingly hot sugar Rush blush peppers.

I donate, vote Blue, write letters to the newspaper, harass my political reps, and generally try not to be an ass.

On behalf of white people everywhere, I just want to apologize for the fact that a whole lot of us are stupid as hell. It's probably too late to do anything about that... More birth control earlier would have been a good thing.

We could touch a lot of grass at all the funerals that would be held

Please feed my darling kitty!! ...I loathe cats and would never live with one

These people watched Soylent Green and said "Yeah, that's what we want."

TNR is destroying the bird population of our neighborhood. I can plant natives for cover and food until I am green, but when feral cats start feeding on the local bird population, the result is devastating. The really painful thing is knowing this is happening everywhere. TNR is murder for birds.
