Does the Fed have any rates that aren’t “key”? Is that an adjective we can strike right out of the copy?

Innit wild how shit just be existing? Like the law of conservation of energy pretty much dictates that none of this should exist, but here we are, existing, and furthermore alive and contemplating existence within that very system that should be at rest...

Anyway, back to mortgages I guess...

I just submitted a complaint to the CFPB... against the CFPB...
The protections against discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation has been withdrawn, effective today, 5/12/2025. This is a disgrace and goes against the very mission, vision, and value statements of the CFPB...

The Earth doesn’t “go around the Sun” the Earth goes in a straight line through an area of spacetime that bends around the Sun and I think that’s neat.

If you're in congress and you aren't publicly in favor of banning the trading of individual stocks by people in congress, get your head out of your fucking ass.

In the newest episode of Crash Course Sex Ed (hosted by Shan Boodram) we’ll uncover the differences between sex and gender, and explore what it looks like when the gender assigned to a person doesn’t match who they really are.

I find it absolutely hilarious that the signed edition of my book Everything Is Tuberculosis costs $4 less on amazon than the unsigned version.

As of 2022, only 29 US states required some kind of sex ed in schools—and about half of those didn’t require the information to be medically accurate. Where you live shouldn’t dictate your quality of education.

The first episode of Crash Course Sex Ed is available now!

I’m on medical leave but a story I wrote before I left posted today.

It’s a really good read on how to find and build communities for trans and nonbinary people - and practical, bulleted points for how to do so from two community organizers I’ve known for several years.
Trans community leaders on finding and building spaces for those who feel isolated and unsafe
Nine bills impacting the trans and nonbinary community have already been proposed in Florida and will be considered during the current state legislative session.

This is the dumbest timeline... Cheeto in chief has backtracked on almost all his tariff threats so far, but unfortunately even the threat is enough to drive up prices. Might consider stocking up if you're worried...

Trump threatens retaliatory 200% tariff on European wine after EU proposes American whiskey tax
American retailers say President Donald Trump's threatened 200% tariff on European wine would harm consumers.

I'm sorry for raining on this parade, but the "transgender mice" talking point is bullshit, but not because someone mistook "transgenic" for "transgender."

The blog post that kicked it off (from a partisan bullshit website) listed a number of papers testing the effects of sex hormones on animals.

Are there any other examples of times when reality breaks grammar and we just have to deal with it?

Example: Zero...it's a number so it has to be singular or plural, but since it isn't singular or plural, we just made it plural. "There are zero marbles."

This.... this is a thing.

This is a random Wednesday night in 20 degree weather.

There's something happening here.
Rallying on a frigid night at the F Street office block that houses SpaceX’s downtown DC presence. Joining this group are union leaders, and feds caught up in DOGE’s gutting of government agencies.
