If you are a teacher K-12 and have a wish list for supplies for the school year for your classroom, please tag me so I can amplify your list. We used to do this on the old site and people usually responded very well.

Controversial take: Rupaul should host Queer ultimatum. A lot of these girls need to work on their inner (and outer) saboteur!

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

Something I don’t think gets said a lot is that Restorative and Transformative Justice work is a kind of organizing. It requires an organizer’s spirit and persistence to take hold in a place. It’s extending a constant invitation to join and take part.

One of the most clarifying things I've seen in the past few weeks is "de-escalate all conflict that is not with the enemy."

financial advice in a weird time:
-- develop a plan
-- find friends who support you
-- preferably 10 of them
-- steal $160 million from the Bellagio, the Mirage, and the MGM Grand
-- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos
-- get your wife back
-- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw

If you suffered in life and want other people to suffer as you did because
"you turned out fine," you did not in fact turn out fine.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
