He asked how I was
so I replied “fine, except
for the state of the world,”
and when I asked how he was
he said he too was
“fine, except
for the state of the world,”
and perhaps utopia
is just a word for a world
in which you can say
that you are fine
without having to qualify it.

The Baileys, @schumer.senate.gov's imaginary friends that he votes in support of, are professional scammers. Joe Bailey has a dog fighting ring in his basement, and Eileen is likes to seduce married men to break up their families.

Their children haven't talked to them in years.

More dispatches from war-torn Portland. My elderly father called and said “the tv news says you’re setting fire to an ice rink?” (I told him nothing is actually happening and to get off Fox)

When we're talking about if people deserve basic human rights or, hey, maybe *those* people don't deserve them, this is not a "respectful debate" because one side has disrespect baked into their point of view.

It's just right or wrong. That's it. No debate. No discussion. One side is wrong.

We will never defeat Trumpism in this country so long as we accept the idea that some kinds of people are not as good as others.

It's liberty and justice for all, all the way, for everyone, without a single asterisk.

My question for centrists giving advice to Democrats: If selling out our own people to try to be more palatable to folks who hate you is a good electoral strategy in 2026, why wasn't it a good strategy in 2024?

As we stood by the copier
I asked what he did this summer
and with a sigh he said
that he got sick,
then his wife got sick,
then his kids got sick,
then he got sick again,
and as he kept talking
I thought to myself
that I am glad
what I did this summer
was wear a mask.

US folks: Did you know the EPA (currently run by someone more concerned with businesses than the environment) has a public-comment period right now?

This is our opportunity to tell them why we think they should not repeal the 2009 Endangerment Finding.

Go, a college student, has a dependent visa (her mother, an Episcopal minister, is here on a religious worker visa), which doesn't expire until Dec. But when she tried to renew it early, ICE nabbed her and sent her halfway across the US to a detention center.

In response
to every piece of grim news
my friend writes me to say
“I have a bad feeling about this,”
and though I worry about him
and worry about the news,
I am much more worried
about all the people I know
who greet the grim news
with calm indifference.
