Interactive Design pays the bills. In my downtime, I'm into drawing comics, collecting weird pop culture stuff, playing heavy metal guitar, watching horror movies, online tutorials, Alabama sports, and the Celtics. I also go outside occasionally.

What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means he’s got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social

One Nazi collaborators, Brian Schatz spent years talking about secret Senate procedures to stop Trump’s authoritarian moves. Turns out, the “strategy” was to cave completely. No justification, no excuse—just another weak fraud pretending to fight while enabling catastrophe. Murphy’s face said it all

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.
