When it comes to documenting ICE activity, remember what Eisenhower said at the end of WWII. "Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened."

If I had a bingo card, which I don't, having the president of the United States being a stupid, vulgar, venal, drug-addled pedophile dipshit from Queens would not be on it. Naming no names, of course.

Divine biopic starring Nina West when?

Well, it uses up a bit more space than "faggot," but what can you do.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

Make the Christopher Moore Cinematic Universe happen.

No bad weather; only bad clothes, right?

I hate exercising, but I like walking. During the months of decent weather, I walk for 3.5–4 miles nearly every day. At the end of October, I started taking the time to go farther—around 6 miles. Hoping I can keep it up through the winter. 🤞

I don’t want to hear about norms, I don’t want to hear about looking forward not back, I don’t want to hear about “bipartisanship” I want the filibuster gone, the court packed, new states, and a top to bottom cleaning of the federal government that ends with a lot of people in jail

"My name is Talky Tina, and I don't think I like you."

Probably not what most people are looking for in #jocktober pictures. #menwhoknit

Remembering that I grew up with John Glenn and Howard Metzenbaum as senators, but now I have the car salesman and Mr. Lint-for-Brains.

Body-shaming is bad, of course, and completely beside the point, but my fellow Ohioans, these guys are giving "Larry Householder," right?

In honor of the season, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand. "Reporters attending board meeting."

"Let's do the fucking news"

I have zero faith (no pun intended) that our reactionary legislature or doddering governor will move on this, but I signed anyway, and you can too.

Needed to burn off pancake calories from breakfast, so biked into the office for the afternoon shift. (I do not work at iHeart; they're just the anchor tenant.)

To Sunday Knitting Brunch

Where do I report an attempted murder? Exhibit A: this text from my baby sister.

Got carded at the liquor store yesterday. While pulling out my ID, I mused, "You know, I'm almost old enough to drink x 3."

I'm sure that there are people who voted for him for president more than once who are now deeply regretful about the situation they helped create, and I can only say that I have not the slightest iota of a smidge of a skosh of compassion for them.

When this showed up near my neighborhood this year, I first thought, "You're not fooling me, fairies." Pretty soon, I began walking through it deliberately.

Day 16: Favorite Queer Mystery/Thriller 🌈📚 The Henry Rios Mysteries by Michael Nava. Brilliant series of modern noir detective novels addressing gay and Latino identity amid the AIDS crisis. Audible released terrific recordings performed by Thom Rivera. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

#ShowMeYourKnits scarf week. Finished just last week: Pierre Skinny Scarf by Stephen West. The annual shawl mystery knitalong isn't for me, but I dig when he designs simple pieces showcasing texture. #menwhoknit #queerknitters

Day 15: Queer Book I Want to Read Next 🌈📚 I've already preordered the audio of @kjcharleswriter.com's Copper Script. It drops tomorrow. Cornell Collins narrates, and I can't wait. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

Day 13: Queer YA Recommendation 🌈📚 This is more middle grade than YA, but I think that's a higher degree of difficulty. Better Nate Than Ever by Tim Federle Nate Foster is my hero. And the scene where he stands outside the gay club is breathtakingly well-written. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #YA #LGBTQ

Day 12: Favorite Queer Poetry 🌈📚 Prelude to a Bruise by @theferocity.bsky.social. I don't think I've read it since it won the Barbara Gittings Literature Award. I should rectify that. And I didn't learn that Saeed lived in my city until just before he moved away. 😔 #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky

Day 11: Hidden Gem 🌈📚 At Swim, Two Boys by Jamie O'Neill First chapter? Tough to get into. The comparisons to Joyce are apt. But once this gets going, it's entrancing. What’s your hidden gem queer book? #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

Day 9: Queer Sci-Fi Pick 🌈📚 The Mnevermind Trilogy by Jordan Castillo Price Daniel used to sell mnemes, temporary recreational memories, but one of these false memories went permanent for his father. Then one day, a stranger shows up in the mneme Daniel is running. #30DaysOfQueerBooks

Day 8: Favorite Queer Fantasy 🌈📚 The Door Into Fire by @diane.dianeduane.com I first fell in love with Diane Duane when I spotted the gay mentors in the background of the Young Wizards books. It's only recently I learned that their origin is here. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

Day 6: Queer Memoir (Nonfiction) 🌈📚 WHEN WE WERE OUTLAWS by Jeanne Córdova. Amazing story of the years between Stonewall and AIDS, when liberation meant different things to men and women. What queer memoir sticks with you? #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

Day 5: Queer Horror 🌈📚🩸 I had to consult lists for this one, and some of the books on the lists I know I read but didn't remember queer content. THE DEAD TAKE THE A TRAIN by Cassandra Khaw & @richardkadrey.bsky.social This is a book not on those lists, but I liked it. #30DaysOfQueerBooks

Day 4: Queer Romance You Loved 🌈📚 Not previously much of a queer romance reader, but this is the year I've binged all of @kjcharleswriter.com. It's hard to pick just one, but JACKDAW stands out. I legitimately couldn't see a way for that story to end happily. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #gay

Day 3: A Book That Made Me Feel Seen 🌈📚 DADDY'S ROOMMATE by Michael Willhoite In particular this illustration of Daddy and Roommate snuggling on the couch sharing a bowl of popcorn. (Story in alt text). Which book made you feel seen? #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

I finished The Pale House Devil just yesterday, and it's my favorite of all the Kadrey I've read. I'm so excited for the sequel. If you like lighthearted, suspenseful, poetically gruesome horror with engaging characters, check him out.

OK, I'm in. Day 1: Favorite Queer Classic 🌈 📚 THE COLOR PURPLE by Alice Walker The night before a satellite author chat with Walker I thought I'd read a bit of TCP at bedtime. I was transfixed, and stayed up half the night to finish it. #30DaysOfQueerBooks #booksky #books #gay

Let the joyous news be spread...

#showmeyourknits stripes 🧶 I love simple, twisted rib gloves made from self-striping sock yarn. #menwhoknit

You can write to DeWine at governor.ohio.gov/contact. I pointed out that there are higher rates of violent crime in Canton, and that Yellow Springs has a hire murder rate, than D.C.

What was your first X-Men issue? Picked up at Brinings News in Mount Vernon on my way to after-school guitar lessons.

My favorite doctor and companion.

The local performing arts associations programs a summer classic movie series in a restored movie palace. In a showing of SUNSET BOULEVARD, the audience erupted in pleasure when Norma declares, "I /am/ big. It's the pictures that got small."

Stabbed in the heart by @danielomalley.bsky.social "What were you going to do with a degree in Folklore?" "Oh, probably die in the streets of exposure and malnutrition." 💀 #RoyalGambit

Age verification? I watched ST:TOS in its first run, not syndicated.

What perfect album came out when you were 16?
