I am so very tired of the Democrats and their lack of strength in their convictions.

Less than a week ago, they won a huge victory. Today, they treat it like it's nothing.

Keep cultivating those supple spines, folks. Surely it will pay dividends soon

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

“People are blaming republicans for food prices and flight cancellations and health insurance costs and are furious about gilded ballrooms and Gatsby parties and the president is falling asleep on tv and is the most deeply unpopular president in history, time to cave” is a hell of an argument

The new Encyclopedia of Magic #SecretLair drop certainly contains some of the cards of all time.

Plus, like 4 good ones.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

A very happy Silksong release day to those who celebrate.

"If you're not sneezin', it ain't seasoned," I whisper to myself as try desperately to not blow snot all over dinner.

Chicken smells real good, though

Today's journalistic malpractice: the media saying "state capitalism" instead of "communism" when discussing the administration's strong arm tactics towards public companies.

Governments should not exist to directly make money off of the electorate.

As we continue to deal with the insanity of our government, it's crucial to remember that the promise of America has always been longer tables, not higher walls. Don't let them break you with their petty meanness.

Happy 4th, everybody.

The ultimate test of authenticity for any ethnic restaurant will always be whether or not people of that ethnicity dine there, which is why Cheesecake Factory is the one true expression of American cooking.

So, we've pretty much confirmed that JD Vance is one of the 4 horsemen now, right?

@hankgreen.bsky.social Where can I get my Chewy Decimal System gear? I want to help you spread the message of this fantastic cause

It's impossible to please everybody all the time, and I know this.

But still I have a notepad file full of campaign notes with thoughts on realism for my detail player, high fantasy for my traditional player, chaos for my murder hobo, and deep NPCs for my role player.

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

They required every federal worker to RTO (or redo Reasonable Accommodations for telework) and are now terminating leases, including office space. These actions are not good faith attempts to improve efficiency.
DOGE's effort to slash government is now coming for buildings and people who run them
The federal government is preparing to shed up to a quarter of its 360 million square feet of real estate, an NPR analysis finds. The agency in charge of federal real estate is also slashing staff.
