That frazzled time in Russia after the end of communism. A time in history so bizarre it's hard to believe it really happened, but I lived it. My family, my boyfriend and my best friend were murdered and neither I, nor the world will ever be the same.

Facebook X-ed out the word "GAY" from the Facebook account I use to promote my podcast about LGBTQ+ rights. My account was IWokeUpThisGayPodcast. Without my consent they changed it to IWokeUpThisXPodcast.

Apparently I'm no longer allowed to be a proud gay man on Facebook. WTF

At last week's peaceful protest in Portland some Pro-Trump journalist interviewed me and edited the truth out. I made a couple YouTube videos so people could see what I really said.

OMG the President and Vice President acted like prepubescent schoolyard bullies. I've never been more ashamed of my country and my President in my life and that's saying a lot. I lived through the Reagan years.

Utter failure to grasp what we are facing www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/u...

1. People lack the framework to recognize an attempt to overthrow the constitutional order
2. The lack of elites *acting* like point 1 is true makes it illegible. Without Ds behaving as if it's a crisis, it's not a crisis.
An Unchecked Trump Rapidly Remakes U.S. Government and Foreign Policy
The president’s swift moves underscore the confidence of an administration with a much firmer grip on the levers of government than during his first term.
