All Gender Restrooms have been around for ages and we have all used them. They're great and many people prefer them for a variety of reasons. The thing about Mancy Nace is that she needs your attention like she needs air. Don't give it to her. She fundraises off your outrage and scorn.

I did something today I had been putting off for over a year. It took me 30 minutes online. I don't know why I waited so long, but I feel like I earned 100 gold stars🌟 for executive functioning.

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

Folks, I get we’re all mad, but the solution is not to take away resources from already underfunded state and local parties. Target your retribution to the Senators who voted for this and their associated PACs. Don’t punish people who can’t do anything about it.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

One of the problems going forward, is that the people who weren't paying attention enough to understand the stakes of the election and prevent this outcome, also won't be paying attention enough to help push back against what is coming.
