Blaming Democrats for a shutdown when you control the House, Senate, and the White House only proves you can't govern.

From now on I'm entering rooms like this.

Just your regular reminder: I have NEVER been afraid of a trans woman (or trans man, for that matter...) I was alone in an elevator, parking garage, or bathroom with. I have MANY TIMES been afraid of a cis-gendered man I unexpectedly found myself alone with.

When government intimidation and corporate cowardice meet, free speech dies. Boycott ABC and Disney until they stand up to Brendan Carr’s censorship. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

PSA: If you intend to write "sinks into her couch" but instead manage to type "sinks into her cooch" the Google docs automatic spell-check does not, I repeat DOES NOT, flag this as a potential error. 😬

Everyone has a 1-2 season TV show they sorely miss and not enough people knew about that you are always praising the heavens about. What's yours?

"Anyone who appreciates the threat that an unbowed, unrestrained Trump poses must be relentlessly, obsessively focused on the rare congressional districts... that are truly up for grabs, and on the math and methods for Democratic victories in them." 💯 www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/o...

Just because I mean, who needs scientific research anyway?

"Biscuit" is my favorite insult. If you want to go extra hard, say "You ABSOLUTE BISCUIT!" It's somehow polite even while it cuts someone to ribbons.

Writers, describe your WIP is the worst way possible. A psychic with mommy issues makes friends with a security guard and a hot guy at a swanky hotel owned by ET's cousins, goes to a fancy party, and then runs away.

Post someone with wings.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
