"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." — Michael Okuda

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards, such as flash floods, because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards, such as a non-existent immigrant crime wave. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

We must expect and demand that the executive branch follow the law.
We must expect and demand that the executive branch comply with court orders.
To expect and demand anything less is a form of obeying in advance.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?
Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

“This was part of the plan”
Let’s recap:
Declare a global trade war
Panic the markets
Create massive selloffs; $10T+ in losses
Weaken the dollar
Take most of it back at the last minute
Recoup some of the losses you were responsible for
People rejoice coz it could’ve been much worse
Heckuva plan.

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens.
The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago.
Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.
