Jim Jordan: "When people step back and evaluate it, they say, 'This was the right decision. This was consistent with what the president told the American people when we the people elected him. He said he was going to do this.'" (Trump literally campaigned on no war with Iran!)

Supernatural 8x17: "Goodbye Stranger": I was such a fan of the chemistry between Meg and Castiel that I was once again annoyed that they killed her off in this episode. Though I suppose, in retrospect, the good character work she gets in this episode should have been a sign. #Supernatural

Babylon 5 5x01: "No Compromises": While I don't hate this episode, I do find the title a bit ironic. On paper, I think certain things work. It's really a question of casting. I'm not a Byron hater, per se, because I think the story arc holds value. #Babylon5

Day 3 of this dryer repair guy setting an appointment time to come finish the repair...and just not showing up. I am rapidly losing what little patience I have left. This is easily the worst home repair situation I have ever encountered. Just zero communication and accountability.

Dark Winds 4x03: "Ahááldláádígíí": As much as this episode sets the stage for our favorite trio to explore Los Angeles to find Leroy, it also picks at the secrets between them. In particular, Chee is tested by what Joe and Bern have been keeping from him. #DarkWinds

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

Trump 2.0: -Bombed Iran (twice), Venezuela, and Yemen -Allowed Israel to repeatedly violate a ceasefire and kill civilians -Ripped healthcare and SNAP away from millions -Deployed masked ICE agents to terrorize American cities The "Peace President."

a slurring Trump in new video on American troops killed by Iran: “Sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That's the way it is. Likely be more.“

Raise your hand if you think we deserve a president that has a better response to American troops dying than “that’s the way it is.” 🙋‍♀️

A pedophile. An adjudicated rapist. A convicted felon. A pathological liar. A sociopath. A malignant narcissist. A sadist. A racist. A fascist. A traitor. An insurrectionist. A war-monger. A demagogue. A despot. An enemy of the Constitution. An American nightmare.

I had no idea that was Michele! That’s so cool!

Definitely checking out that new Rob Zombie album. There's also a new album from Motorpsycho that I've added to my list. And on the advisement of a few different people, I'll also be giving the new album from Eye of Melian a chance.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy 1x08: "The Life of the Stars": The previous episode felt like two B-plots mashed together. This felt the opposite; two strong A-plots that could (and perhaps should) have been their own episodes. #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.

House Republicans have just introduced a bill that would result in a NATIONWIDE book ban. Oh, the bill is also specifically transphobic. Contact your House Rep and ask them to publicly oppose this legislation. A few more thoughts in the thread about this action. bookriot.com/hr7661-book-...

If a trans person were caught jaywalking Republicans would be ranting about it every chance they got, meanwhile a trans person JUMPED INTO LAKE MICHIGAN IN THE WINTER AND RESCUED A STRANGER’S BABY and it’s crickets.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

FYI for fellow narrative designers/game writers: the studio in question is Sentona Games and it’s my understanding they are currently interviewing to replace me. Be very careful with them. They were very nice to me and easy to work with right up until I needed the money I was promised.

This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment. If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.

Good morning. Trans folks and people of color are being systematically targeted by a fascist regime led by a cabal of white supremacists trying to cover their sex crimes. Please uplift and protect vulnerable communities and call your elected officials!

Trans people are not the problem. If you are concerned about trans people, I'd recommend taking a moment to think about who told you that was a critical issue. They may not have your best interests at heart. People being needlessly cruel to trans folks? Now that is a problem.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir: I wanted to read the book before seeing the movie, based on the enormous positive buzz. On the one hand, I hated the first-person perspective and struggled for the first 120 pages or so. #ProjectHailMary

Hijack 2x07: "Contact": The penultimate episode of the season stretches things out with a couple small reveals and a couple notable deaths. But if the reveal about the true mastermind here is true, then I'm a bit disappointed. In any case, my theories were effectively debunked. #Hijack

Republicans on the cable shows this morning -- Suddenly talking again about need to "take" Greenland -- Hyping importance of "strangling" Cuban government -- Encouraging Trump to "topple" Iranian regime The Trump movement is totally out of control. This will not end well.

Today’s commuting pick: John Wetton: Heart of the Dragon: Live at Shibuya on Air East, Tokyo, Japan: October 1, 1994 Part 1, from the Concentus II box set. #JohnWetton

They found him. He died. Another murder by our immigration goon squads

I will never forgive the people who voted for this administration and helped put these monsters in power.

This week's comic book haul: Star Trek Deviations: Threads of Destiny 1 Supernatural 5

In other news...towards the end of last year, I got some concerning blood work results. A couple times in a row. I went back to the doctor last week and the results this time were actually some of the best I've had in ages. I am relieved!

Got a brand new copy of a Talking Heads album. Put it on and it immediately began skipping through the entire first song. Just absolutely unlistenable. The quality control for new vinyl is just all over the damn place, it seems like.

Now playing: Pink Floyd: Wish You Were Here (1975) Specifically, the 50th anniversary, 3-LP version. Got this as a Valentine’s Day gift! Digging into the rarities. #PinkFloyd

Dr. Casey Means, Trump's nominee for surgeon general, won't unambiguously say that mothers should have their kids vaccinates against measles: "I do believe that each mother needs to have a conversation with their pediatrician about any medication they're putting in their children's bodies."

oops. White nationalism is a helluva drug.

Trump is sticking with the same mantra he says every day - everything is amazing and bigger and better than ever despite what people see, feel, pay for things and their bank accounts. Everything was terrible without him in charge but now everything is better than ever.

“I heard the officer say ‘that ain’t shit’.” NASHVILLE — ICE shatter a car window in front of a newborn, refuse to look at man’s license & work visa… drag him out of his car, hit him, mock him for being Guatemalan (he’s from Mexico), laugh when he begs to say goodbye.

Silly. You need ID (not “voter ID”) to get on a plane. Not “proof of citizenship,” which is what the SAVE America Act requires.

Now playing: Rush: Signals (1982) Specifically, the vinyl from the 40th anniversary deluxe box set from 2023! #Rush

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms 1x06: "The Morrow": Despite some questionable deviations from the source material (some things are perhaps best left a mystery), this is a solid conclusion to the first season. #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms

NEW: Trump’s DoJ ordered New York SVU and New Mexico to stop investigating Epstein in 2019. www.justsecurity.org/132230/fbi-s...

Dark Winds 4x02: “Bikéé’ Doo Éédahoozįįdę́ę́góó": The episode begins with another perspective on the diner incident, and then continues the chase to find Billie and Albert before the blonde shooter does. In the midst of all this, there is plenty of time for good character work. #DarkWinds

Well, shit. This is batshit. This is bullshit. Even *posting* that I think this is bullshit is... I can't even. (I have a green card) www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

Sickening. www.tennessean.com/story/news/p...

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

A bit of a light week from my perspective, but it does give me more time to absorb other recent releases (like the surprise U2 EP).

Dear YouTube: When I go into your app on my Apple TV, and go to All Subscriptions, I expect the damn videos to be in *chronological* order. Not whatever mishmash nonsense "Most Relevant" order that you are throwing together right now. Because it is completely unusable. Get your damn act together!

Fringe 4x19: "Letters of Transit": I skipped this in its airing order for this rewatch since it fits better as a prologue to the fifth season. And it follows more naturally from the fourth season finale. #Fringe

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy 1x07: “Ko’Zeine”: Far more low-key than the previous episode, this one focuses on both Genesis and Darem during the All-Worlds Break. Darem's subplot felt very familiar, as it feels like a spin on Spock's situation in "Amok Time". #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy

Undocumented immigrants don’t vote Trump was not “exonerated” re: Epstein The board of peace is a huge grift The Melania movie was a bribe You pay the tariffs The boat bombings are murder The ceasefire is not a ceasefire Ice is not targeting criminals And on and on
