Advice to #yogi friends: don’t sneeze in wild thing.

I’m honestly shocked that this story from @globalnews.ca has flown under the radar. Confirmation that Amit Shah, the second-most powerful man in the Indian government, was directly involved in the assassinations on Canadian soil. globalnews.ca/news/1151469...

LOL LOL LOL LOL This is what happens when your state has a surplus of bourbon. #cdnpoli MAGAs in Kentucky were showing up to their polling stations to vote against Zohran Mamdani. Kentucky ranks 48th in education by the way.

“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's communications director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” We didn't. Read the story that he wanted dropped:

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026. If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it. So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.” Because that IS what they are going to say.

BREAKING: Top Trump officials, including Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Marco Rubio, and Pete Hegseth, have moved and are now living on military bases… What are they afraid of?!

This time last year I was in a really crappy place both professionally and mentally. I felt isolated and under threat most days. I thought I was going crazy. I thought something was wrong with me. 1/

Reagan loved a free hand. That's what Trump & Reagan have in common. But Reagan's default opposition to tariffs couldn't be clearer. Here's the uncut original. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t5Q...

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness. Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

Trump is destroying the White House and the US. From symbolism to literalism.

Recently more than one person has said they can identify and find me by hearing my laugh. I feel this is rather a lovely way to be known.

If you’re gonna faint at graduation, do it when your friendly neighborhood Director of the School of Nursing and former ED #nurse is three rows down on the stage from you. (Student is fine and made it across the stage.)

"What this will all mean in the long run is unclear. But in the short term, it will almost certainly mean fewer family medicine residents. That’s right: this change is likely to lead to fewer, not more, doctors in Ontario." #OnHealth #OnPoli

Home from work in the lovely rain. Maybe start a watercolor? No. Brain: Hey! Wanna write a Dresden Files fanfic with a trans protagonist set in SLC. with a plot involving a Book of Mormon exegesis? Me: W-why? Brain: No idea? But this is all you will think about for the next month, guaranteed!

Keep on this. We cannot allow the wholesale obliteration of our public health, science, and medicine to continue.

“I … met with the governor, met with the mayor, met with the chief of police, and the superintendent of the highway patrol. They’re all lying, and disingenuous, and dishonest people,” Noem said, because they wouldn’t back up her baseless claims that the streets were overrun with terrorists.

ICE killed a dad who had just dropped off his kids at day care. Waiting for the All Lives Matter folks to rally behind his family...

Watched a few too many Insta posts and made a leftover meatloaf grilled cheese. OMG. I am ruined.

Even a passing knowledge of Black history will make clear that not only was this level of destruction possible, it was inevitable. “Did you know they’d shut down US AID?” I mean these are the same people who closed all public schools in a county rather than desegregate. Yes. Yes I did.

You don't hear a peep about shooters that turn out not to be left wing activists. The news just moves on once they see a red MAGA hat in their photos.

I work with Veterans. If I told them that they "killed people and broke things for a living" they would (rightfully) tell me to go to hell. Those that have had to kill someone in the line of duty most often view it with sadness, regret, and one of the worst experiences of their lives.

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband. Today they attacked two journalists. We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

When we submitted a grant to the DoD to look at this a few years ago, it was not funded because they said it failed to meet the “issue of importance to the military” standard.
