"The faery realm she creates feels refreshingly intimate. As Bossano describes it, the fascinating faery dimension ‘might be around the corner, between the pages of a book, or in one’s own blood.’ This closeness transforms the reading experience into something almost tactile." - RW Magazine

I want to buy a thing and own it. Not rent it. I don't want to pay a monthly fee to access it. I don't want it to be stored in the cloud. I have to pay a monthly fee for an app to tell me how many subscriptions I'm paying for. It's insanity. We pay memberships for things that have ads. Why?

🚨 BREAKING: A federal appeals court has ruled, in a 2-1 decision, that the Trump-Hegseth transgender military ban is likely unconstitutional, finding that the policy appears to be driven by a “bare desire to harm a politically unpopular group” and is “both arbitrary and based upon animus.” 1/3

So let it be written. So let it be done.

One response to being raped is shame. Another is outrage. It’s outrageous what’s been happening in the US. The co-incidence of sexual assault and corrupt self-dealing is no coincidence. They’re both about impunity & domination. Both say: rules apply to thee, not to me.

BREAKING: I'm suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to STOP the $1.8B slush fund. The Justice Department violated the Administrative Procedures Act when it established the fund, and it must be set aside. You can read my complaint here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

No notes... well, maybe let's add "a serial adulterer"

Experts are projecting that the war in Iran will cost taxpayers $1 trillion. The people in charge just gave the richest 1% a $1 trillion tax break. And they really want us to believe SNAP and healthcare are the problem?? Get real.

Re PARAMOUNT+: It took me about 45 minutes to figure out how to cancel it. They don't make it easy. But with determination, it is doable. Use your opportunity to tell the AGENT (not the A.I. bot!) you will ultimately be connected to exactly WHY. I cited the Ellisons, Bari Weiss, CBS News... (contd)

Genuinely wonder what would happen if, say, 50 million Americans refused to pay their taxes because they’re being spent unconstitutionally

The Fourteenth Amendment, written in the blood of the Civil War, says in Section 4 that this is blatantly illegal: “[N]either the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”

BREAKING: The judge in the $1.7B slush fund suit has dismissed the case, but she says THERE IS NO SETTLEMENT OF RECORD. As I said earlier, the media must stop reporting that this slush fund is a settlement. It's just plain THEFT. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

No one in this regime will face federal criminal accountability unless we reform the Supreme Court first. That's what folks should be running on. That should be the lesson of the Jack Smith prosecutions: it doesn't matter who the AG is.

Buttigieg on Duffy: "I love roadtrips. I love America. I actually took a taxpayer-funded roadtrip lasted about 7 months. It was in Afghanistan. This is something very different. To make roadtrips unaffordable & then go around celebrating your own roadtrip is actually why people are frustrated about"

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

According to PBS, Dump has paid up to $2 billion to cancel offshore wind farms on both coasts. He actually spent taxpayer money to shelve economically viable private company projects which would have provided electricity to Americans at a fraction of the current average price

The people saying that gutting the Voting Rights Act has nothing to do with racism are the same people who say overturning Roe v Wade had nothing to do with women

Democracy Is Not A Spectator Sport! DO SOMETHING!

The new age of reporting facts is nearly here 💙 Jon Stewart and John Oliver should be part of that constellation too.

Yes! Drag 47, and his lot of complicit squatters, out by the hair and trample them underfoot with very public accountability.
