Legit.

Every night, I say a little prayer before I fall asleep.

Hellz yaz, Queen.

If Melania doesn’t have to live with Donald, why do we?

Trump has deported a four-year-old US citizen with a rare form of metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with their doctor.

Hey, Harvard, my dear graduate school: No settlement with the Trump Regime!

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Marc Elias is an American hero!

Yes! It must be something in the water up there in Massachusetts. Oh, yeah, it's tea!

Deadnames I can still get behind: "Twitter" "Gulf of Mexico" "NATO Alliance"

I have never been more proud to be a Harvard student.

The number of trans athletes reported in Maine (where federal education funding is being blocked by the Trump regime for not persecuting said trans athletes enough) is equal to the number of children killed in Texas by preventable measles infections : two. Guess where the outrage is focused.

This is my new go-to question for the Ridiculous Right.

"This Is Some Straight-up Nazi Bullshit" was my favourite sign at today's "Hands Off!" Protest in Dallas. "We Just Want American Values" was another righteous choice. That one had the Bill of Rights on the other side. Mine just said, "Enough!"

Heartwarming story from, of all places, my Reddit feed: www.reddit.com/r/comics/s/L...

When someone tells you to defer to someone and "be the bigger person," they explicitly admit that this other person is being small. You owe this small person nothing. Fuck their bullshit.

What's brown and rhymes with Snoop? Dr Dre. Why does Snoop carry an umbrella? Fo' drizzle.

“OK, Becky. Show us on the Bill of Rights where DOGE touched you. “

There is no coup in Ba Sing Se.

Amid the daily terror of being the father of LGBTQ+ children and a *gasp* liberal living in Texas, I had a bright moment today. My girlfriend took me to the film "My Dead Friend Zoe." STRONG recommend. It's not a dramatic comedy (as marketed?) but a solid drama. 5/5 www.imdb.com/title/tt2202...

After more than 240 years, our experiment in democracy and capitalism is collapsing because of the two systems' conflicting imperatives. We have chosen to gut democracy and cling to the most unfair and destructive aspects of capitalism in the hope that someday we will be rich. We deserve our fate.

This is the worst fucking timeline. www.latintimes.com/11-year-old-...

Pretty proud that I managed to get in 150 crunches before breakfast. Sure, it was a bag of kettle chips, but still!

We really are though.

Greenland, Panama, and now Gaza?!

This is the least funny timeline. Our disgraceful president has begun "joking" (which is how he previews his plans) about annexing Canada without their consent. #NoMapleschluss

Our allies, being treated as foes, are responding accordingly. Our police and regulators are racing to prove their submission, firing off resumes, or both. Our children are not safe in schools, our people are not secure in their homes, papers, or effects, and our bodies are not inviolable.

"Elon's not a Nazi, he's just awkward and/or neuro-atypical!" Folks, these are not mutually exclusive. Consider for yourself—I present Elon Musk, the Riechest Man in the World...

Homemade chicken salad on a King’s Hawaiian mini sub roll with a crispy kosher dill pickle makes for a nice dinner. Now if I only had the freedoms I had a year ago…

Please don’t even talk to me in the morning until I’ve had my coffee, 27 hours of alone time, several months by the seaside to ease my agonies, and many decades to wander the earth until the fabled blade of my ancestors can finally be reforged

Another semester begins! I’m teaching English Composition II, Introduction to College English, Comparative Politics, and American Political Parties at Paul Quinn College. Also, as part of my Museum Studies masters program I am taking Reviewing Performing Arts.

Tell him, Mark!

President Carter has passed. A gentleman, model exemplar of his faith, and a compassionate advocate for decency, democracy, and equality—He will be missed.

Who is getting gender-affirming care? The vast majority of gender-affirming care in the US is provided to cis-gender individuals. The denigration and stigmatisation of gender-affirming care to attack or discriminate against trans people and their families ignores this basic fact.

For Zeteo, I debunked and dismantled Trump and the MAGA right's spurious 'argument' to end birthright citizenship, a constitutionally-protected, Supreme Court-affirmed and very historic right in this country. Watch/share/subscribe:

For this recent Thanksgiving, I decided to go 100 percent plant based. Now, it was a meat processing plant, but still… #dadjokes
