The biggest problem with social media, and this format in particular... it is the headline and the comments section without the article.

Which is a better 90's period piece... Reality Bites or Mallrats?

If you were writing an updated Contract with America in anticipation of winning the next midterms... what would you put in it and why?

I'd rather see a succinct list of initiatives the Democratic Party endorses for moving forward. The more that require a flip of Congress to achieve the better.

Think the Contract with America, or Project 2025 bullet points except for sane people.
Today, I released a framework detailing how the Democratic Party will fight against Trump’s war on working people.

If I say "homeless" instead of "unhoused" I get a ration of crap about how I want to use the N word in polite company. Why is that?

I feel like I can't be the only one who sees the book 1984 when he sees this picture, right?
Elon Musk’s unparalleled online reach has given him a powerful tool to attack individuals who criticize DOGE, with one post able to spark hundreds of blistering responses from his followers.
Elon Musk ridiculed a blind person on X. Then a mob went to work.

My wife and I are watching Murder Under the Friday Night Lights and... hoooooooo boy am I having some flashbacks ti what it was like growing up in a small town surrounded by people with active imaginations and an abundance of free time... also, small town cops.

Consider the possibility that this is exactly why I don't watch CNN, MSNBC or Fox News. Or whatever the hell that other new one is called, News Nation?

Pick a few substacks and be free of this garbage.
Consider the possibility that the Trump White House WANTS this fight. Wants journalists to act like opponents instead of observers. If the entire press pool skipped a Trump photo op in solidarity with The AP, wouldn't the White House welcome Breitbart and One America News to take their places?
And, are you or your colleagues boycotting covering the WH as a protest?

DOGE. Man I hate giving this stuff oxygen and posting about it on social media is basically yelling into a void of petty rage. This is unconstitutional. Congress approves, and then appropriates, funds for specific purposes. This is why America is the best, we have separation of powers.

Republicans are generally loons. But... why can't people on my side of the political spectrum actually act as an opposition party for once? Why? Republicans are great at it and it works in their favor...
The Senate takes 3 votes this afternoon:
1) Go into executive session to consider Russell Vought to be OMB Director
2) Cloture vote for Pam Bondi for Attorney General
3) Confirmation of Christopher Wright for Energy Sec

These should be 3 easy NO votes for Dems. Watch yours and provide that input.

Guys... I found these old pants that I THINK my daughter bought for me at a thrift store a few years ago. Should I keep them? I have no clue what kind of social engagement they would be appropriate for... but I also don't care about what is appropriate most of the time so... 🤷‍♂️

Are there good handles to follow for #indiecomics and #comicbooks in general? Asking for me!
Y'all... it is so hard to not share the comic book I am working on. Okay, just a page.
