Honestly, the iPad feels the most magical to me when I ditch the physical keyboard cover and just use it as a tablet.

At the airport waiting for my flights back to California and it’s only really now that it feels like the post-DragonCon blues are setting in.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

One of these days we're gonna have to reckon with the fact that "money that I spend which does not directly benefit me is a waste" is a popular sentiment.

I think we should state plainly that this is selfish on its face.

And stupid when you have awareness which extends beyond your nose.

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad.

SPEAK UP FOR MONTANA'S WOLVES! 🐺

This is admittedly conjecture but it’s telling David Lynch’s art is so perverted, horrifying or even horny… Yet his collaborators & even exes overwhelmingly talk about his decency, respect & protectiveness. Like proof you don’t have to be an abusive monster to explore darkness in the human psyche.

Ever since the disastrous Citizens United ruling, outside spending on federal elections has skyrocketed.

Big money corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy — creating a vicious cycle that funnels more wealth and power to those at the top.
