would really love it if our elected officials had to publicly define socialism and then explain why they voted against it

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

What the Epstein files show is the *solidarity* of many men-across class, race, religion, profession & party affiliation-in the global political project of keeping the boot on women's necks.

People have no problem understanding class solidarity among the rich. Why can't they see gender solidarity?
Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

He attacks science and higher ed, driving top talent to flee, then complains we don't have talent and must bring in immigrants with h1b visas that he's charging $100,000 a pop for.

He's ok with immigration so long as he can exploit and profit from it.

Shout out to everyone completely demoralized about the state of the world who still manages to get out of bed each morning.

And shout out to you, too if you’re still in bed. This shit is hard. Talk to your friends and neighbors. They’re going though it too, which is both terrifying and comforting.

I brought a book to a party and am chilling in a corner reading while my husband makes the rounds, because I am both a supportive wife and introversion's final boss. #compromise

OBSESSED WITH THIS COVER 😍
My publisher in the UK says the new edition of GODS OF JADE AND SHADOW with a cover by Erion Makuo is now available to order via Waterstones and other retailers. This was previously released by Jo Fletcher Books and is now under the Arcadia imprint.

When you devote your life to the message that empathy is evil and gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay for gun rights, you shape the world with your words. Maybe Charlie Kirk didn’t expect to be a victim of his own worldbuilding, but his death is consistent with the world he helped create.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.

But we will also do nothing to curb the availability of the guns used to carry out said violence.

The denial and empty rhetoric is learned helplessness— because the truth is..

America is sick and there is no cure in sight.

We can't stand by while Israeli settlers kill innocent civilians, including Americans, in the West Bank.

Trump made this worse by revoking 30+ sanctions on extremist settlers.

It's wrong, and I was proud to join Senator Van Hollen in pressing for accountability and justice.
Saifullah Kamel Musallet is the 7th U.S. citizen killed in the West Bank by settlers or the IDF since 2022, and the 5th in the last 19 months.

Today I led 28 Senators in writing to Rubio & Bondi demanding an independent, U.S.-led investigation — and accountability for ALL these American lives lost:
Democrats demand U.S. investigation of American’s death in West Bank
Sayfollah Kamel Musallet, of Tampa, was visiting family in the West Bank. Palestinian authorities say Israeli settlers are responsible for his death.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.

I made a book, a very tiny book.
On vintage paper with watercolour illustrations and a nonsense verse.
If anyone wants to publish it for me I would be overjoyed. This is just a rough to see how it works out

The fiscal conservatives in the GOP just added $4 trillion to the deficit to give the wealthiest people on earth a tax cut. The pro-family party just took healthcare away from 17 million Americans to give ICE a bigger budget than Brazil’s military. The single most inhumane bill ever passed.
