Occasionally insightful, mostly sarcastic. Commentary with a raised eyebrow and a dash of doomscroll fatigue. Opinions are my own, unless they’re better than mine… then I’m reconsidering.

The Genocide in Gaza has not stopped. It has been rebranded. And that is enough of a linguistic subterfuge to get the world to ignore it.

Silencing a black woman's voice is so on brand for that knuckle dragging knotty-pated dewberry. 🤬
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Hey so, i would encourage my fellow performers to not do any shows at the Kennedy Center until it reverts to it’s original name
Thank you for your attention to this matter
(yes I’ve already performed there so it’s an easier decision for me)

Not enough folks know that the Foo Fighters are massive AIDS denialists and ran fundraisers for proto-RFKJ types that refused to treat children with HIV.
FWIW: Courtney Love and Pearl Jam have both worked extensively with responsible AIDS orgs. #noalternativescience

World AIDS day is important to me as I have lost people to it and I know people living with HIV.
It is a disease I wouldn't wish on anyone, but hell with the power of medical science, people can now live normal lives thanks to medication.
Also fuck Dave Grohl. Man was only good in Nirvana.

These are screenshots from an actual DHS press release that just went out offering "self-deportation" as a "gift" to "illegal aliens" this holiday season.

No idea why an Afghan refugee shot National Guard soldiers within walking distance of the White House, but this new USCIS directive was revealed on Monday. Worth noting.
The folks at @afghanevac.bsky.social have in hand a new USCIS directive which largely targets Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal in 2021.
In case you needed a reminder that the most loathsome people in the world work for DHS.

SCOOP—In August, nearly 200 current/former FEMA staffers published the Katrina Declaration, a whistleblower letter detailing all the dangers posed by current leadership.
All current employees were put on indefinite leave, and now I've learned one has been fired in violation of federal protections:

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

People say DOGE "failed", but to be fair DOGE successfully stole every American taxpayers data & personal information & had access to pretty much EVERY government system and likely shared that data with foreign entities. IDK that I'd say failed exactly, being they did everything that was intended.

DOGE was Elon Musk’s grand experiment in running our government like one of his companies: big promises, reckless cuts, and real people left hurting.
Now it’s been quietly shut down eight months early because it never came close to delivering the savings he bragged about.
