while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Chat GPT is apparently the new Helicopter Parent.
I’ll plan a road trip for you. Drive around with your sister. Here’s a playlist. Or: You’re a morning person so study then. Have a coffee before you begin. I’ll add it to your calendar.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

Since 1958, West Point has honored one U.S. citizen annually with the Sylvanus Thayer Award for embodying the values of "Duty, Honor, Country."
Tom Hanks was set to receive the award later this month. His ceremony was just abruptly canceled by the Academy.

fucking hysterical to hear the 'poor little genAI industry' crying about being bullied with "copyright law" as if it's some novel, untested area of jurisprudence.
If you don't want to be sued by 7 million people don't steal from 7 million people, that's a pretty simple legal concept

#ShowMeYourKnits Blue Week. The yarn was my souvenir from our September trip to Ireland. Townhouse Yarns Drury DK; Color: Oiche. The pattern is Slouchy Copy Cat Hat on Ravelry, mods by nireknit. A really easy, fun pattern that I knit at a bluegrass festival in Vermont.

Instead of starting new parties and complaining about a broken system, how about we just overturn Citizens United and tell billionaires to keep their money out of our democracy.

Book banners always seem confused about how we can call something a ban if the books are still available elsewhere.
I'll put this in a way they'll understand.
When your outreach leader was barred from going within 2500 feet of a playground?
Still a ban even though they sell slides on Amazon.

Charlotte always manages to make me feel a glimmer of hope.
For the first half of my kindergarten year, my family lived in a shitty little apartment complex somewhere in Central Texas. I forget where. I think Waco? Copperas Cove? We moved around a lot. If memory serves correctly, I attended three different schools that year.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
