Lover of music and hockey. A little chocolate once in a while doesn't hurt either.

In case anyone's wondering why I'm a music nerd... (Thread)
It's like I live in 2 different worlds. In my everyday real-life world, I'm surrounded by Muggles. Normal ordinary ppl. Their lives are dull & grey & boring, but they don't care because they don't know anything else.

Wanna speak personally about this, not just politically.

@dougjones.bsky.social is one of the most decent, smart, humble and dedicated people who truly truly TRULY has his heart in politics and policy for all the right reasons.

I had the pleasure of working on a documentary w him. Fantastic guy.
Doug Jones won before & if you doubt he can do it again, you’re not paying attention to Alabama.

Tuberville has a record, but so does Jones.

If Jones jumps in, the contrast couldn’t be greater. A real Alabaman who prosecuted a KKK cold case vs Florida man who treats the state like rental property.

Just saw this posted elsewhere, & I think it applies to some people here:

Until you address me directly, you do not have an issue with me. You have an issue with yourself. Deal with your projection, or deal with me.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Mike Johnson decided to quickly schedule a House vote on an effort to force the release of all of the Jeffrey Epstein case files once he realized that it couldn’t be stopped.

House GOP leaders are bracing for a significant number of Republicans to break from Trump and support the bipartisan bill.

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

Two things they fear most: us connecting, and us boycotting the corporations that want to own us. This post does both. Starter pack drops tonight. I’ll begin with everyone who reposts, comments, interacts. Boycotts work—especially when they reach fresh eyes.

Corruption & abuse abound in an autocracy. Imagine for a moment that this happened to you or your family.

Immigrants are hard workers, in fact the hardest workers in the country. They are also the most vulnerable to wage theft & extortion.

Is America still the land of the free?

#AOC: “What makes the leadership of this moment so crucial, is about trust and cooperation — we will need to work together and as a team in order to usher our country through this very dark time.”

My phone is dead.

It was working this morning. Then sometime this afternoon I reached for it and it wouldn't turn on.

Tomorrow I'll be heading into the city to get a live human being to help, because the twats in the chat were no help, and I couldn't even get a live human being on the phone.

As of this morning, it is imperative that the Democratic caucus in the senate remove Schumer as Minority Leader, Durbin as minority whip and Cortez Masto as Vice Chair of Outreach.

Replace them today with Van Hollen, Murphy and Merkley. Or anyone else who actually knows how to lead and discipline.

Ok...Newsom, Hochul, and Sherrill have all posted statements on this. Would a coalition of governors be able to accomplish anything here? Asking for America.
Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

I haven't given a single dollar to the Democrats since Nov 5th, 2024. And I won't.

My favorite new words are Unsubscribe and Stop2End.

My money goes to independent journalism, pro-democracy orgs, veterans, and pro- environmental groups.
