Thanks, GOP. My health insurance now costs over $30k per year. And it's entirely your fault.

I do not condone violence outside of self-defense. That said, Charlie Kirk was an evil human who should not be “honored” for his “work”. Maybe he was a great dad, and if so he should be honored for that. But not for his pathetic, bigoted views about race and trans people. He was an awful person.

Response sent to the White House. Summary: The planet doesn’t need an emperor dictating trade. Mainland Antarctica already has millions of Emperors, and even their droppings do more good than the White House’s globally destabilizing policies.
In other words, go take a long hike on thin ice.

My neighbors down the block have a Trump flag flying. They also have a Latino yard crew mow their lawn every week. Can they not imagine how those men feel right now? Half of America has no compassion at all.

It’s beyond baffling to me that people think the NBA championship was a “big deal”. The fucking world is burning, people. Our country has become a fascist playground. There are real things to focus on. Sports, even billion-dollar sports, are GAMES.

After watching The Keepers on Netflix recently, I could not care less about the pope nonsense. There is zero chance the old white guy will do anything to hold other Catholic men accountable for sexual abuse.
