Musician, Songwriter, IPM for MMJ Industry. East Coast to AZ. My love language smells like books, sounds like mandolins and says “I hope everyone is kind to you.” Mad for Irish Trad. X refugee.

This really shouldn’t need to be said, but here we go:

Accounts appearing in earnest to advocate or endorse acts of violence against anyone (yes, this absolutely includes politicians, nazis, Musk, Doge-bags) will be blocked.

I want to see the message killed and the messenger alive and powerless.
Our Pentagon has a fully stocked make up studio.

The Pentagon’s Press Corp office is empty.

That tells you everything you need to know.

About to play a gig at the local Irish Cultural Center- celebrating a 90th birthday.

Politics, policy, debates- all important. Just don’t forget to turn the music loose, be in the moment and celebrate the lives of those around us.

Empathizing with those following an idealogy demonizing emphathy isn’t weakness.

It’s a power move. Literally, it’s empowering.

I also believe in a slow, subtle way- it seeds empathy in others.

Dear Media- for the love of sweet chocolate Moon Pies- whenever *anyone says the signature was forged; you immediately ask “okay, how?” Likewise, remind them there’s a chain of evidence.
The gaslighting on the signature is maybe their most embarrassing thing yet. Just an absolute disregard for the truth, or dignity. @reptimburchett

Well, this is terrifying.
For decades, Doug Wilson was a relatively unknown pastor in Idaho, relegated to the fringe of evangelicalism for his radical teachings. Now he's an influential voice in the Christian right.
Pastor Doug Wilson’s fringe teachings go mainstream in Trump’s Washington
Doug Wilson was once a fringe pastor in Idaho and is now a significant voice in the Christian right.

Anyone get video of Ray Epps waking up to find Trump was an FBI informant?

If so, can we dub “A Whole New World” to it?

There’s all sorts of lightning, thunder and rain just to the south.

Yet, here we sit; dry as Charlie Kirk’s wife.

Sad.

My favorite super hero movie is still “Mystery Men”…

… and I think the mistakes made in all subsequent super hero movies could have been avoided by watching it first.

Played a lovely gig, filled with lovely people- and a few of more songs, touched the magic.

Still reeling from the fact that our President’s issue with museums is they a) depict slavery as a bad thing and b) don’t say enough about our future.

What the actual fuck are we living through?

ICE agents are serving their country in the same way that an arsonist, using a lighter with an eagle and flag embossed on it, is being patriotic.

How to get around in Phoenix, in August:

Walk outside.

Stop.

*combust non-spontaneously*

Drop.

Roll towards your destination.

Whomever referred to Trump’s appearing on top of the WH as “Diddler on the Roof” - owes me 1 set of boxer shorts.

Confirmed.

It’s madness.
BREAKING: The US government has just removed sections 9 and 10 of Article I of the US Constitution from their website.

Note that sections 9 and 10 deal with:

- Writ of Habeas Corpus
- Congresses ability to control tariffs.

See screenshot below: Notice that 9 and 10 are gone.

Hello. The president's continued insistence that the BLS numbers are rigged, political, or otherwise manipulated is a lie. Please stop saying 'baseless claim.' Thank you.

I’m certain the Palestinian mother, trying to keep her children from starving to death today, is stoked about our President’s 200 million dollar ballroom.
