No DMs.
Craftsman at heart, draftsman by profession.
I'd retire tomorrow if I could afford it; I've got lots of stuff to do at home.
If hope can save democracy, I'm trying to do my part. It's not easy.
I was/am OldWhiteGuy on the bird app, FWIW

Every ad I see for fancy cars with "hands-free driving" seem like they should have a robot-voice voiceover that just says "Lazy humans, purchase this aspirational product that makes it super-easy to murder you."

Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else?
What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

Listen…If y’all want to talk honesty, then let’s be honest about all of it.
The promises, the hypocrisy, the receipts.
Because what you campaigned on and what you’re doing? Two very different things.

Dear ICE:
I live in Charlotte, so let me quote the words you are so fond of:
“You don’t belong here. You’re not one of us. Go back to whatever shithole you came from.”

It's ONLY been 65 years since six year old Ruby Bridges walked through the halls of William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to attend an all white school. Met with mobs and hate, her bravery and courage helped change the course of history for this nation.

Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.
This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

I genuinely wonder if there is a single person who works at the Times and has comprehension of the moment and the self-awareness to look in the mirror every morning and correctly hate what they have become.
I genuinely wonder if anyone on the NYT editorial team looks at the Mamdani coverage in total and thinks "yeah, we got this one right"
The story on the eve of the election is basically reporters asking the public "is Mamdani experienced enough?"
No actual news.
