Trump is baselessly demonizing political opponents in an effort to silence critics and divide the nation into those who are with him and those who are against him.

We're about to witness the depths of MAGA's anti-democratic authoritarianism.

I'm hopeful most Americans will see this for what it is.

I had never even heard of this guy's name before last week. Now Vance is going to talk to my EMPLOYER to come "get me"? I can't take it. Just take me now, gawd.

Governor Pritzker is right. No more blank checks for Netanyahu’s right-wing government and its military. No more blank checks for war crimes against Palestinians.

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

Amazing poster for the Dark Days Bright Nights Fest in Richmond, VA! Paul Nitsche really knocked it out of the park with his artwork! Part of the Dazzling Killmen re-formation tour…

Ballroom Blitz is the only song where the singer checks if the other band members are ready before the song starts. He makes every other singer look like a thoughtless pig

How’s this place these days? I totally forgot it existed. Did I miss anything good? A little over 2 months until the Dazzling Killmen shows commence. More heart crap happening.
