"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

This would be hilarious if it wasn’t so dangerous- they’re dressed like they’re in a combat zone whilst their enemies wear animal costumes. The world is laughing at the American government, and looking at this picture, so is Portland.

I’m closing my time as a Public Voices Fellow of the OpEd Project with a new op-ed in Prism Reports. Next week is AWP & the piece is perfectly timedβ€”if you’re attending & browsing the bookfair, pay attention to the submission guidelines you come across & invite people into more inclusive practices.

Holding the anthology "Here to Stay" in front of a patch of pink an orange flowers on a meadow

"Here to Stay" collects #poetry & prose from 53 undocumented writers in America. "A poem cannot protect a person without documents from arrest. But it is capable of a resonant whisper" say the #undocupoets editors @marcelohcastillo.bsky.social @j9joseph.bsky.social & @estherwslin.bsky.social

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post:

God Bless America isn't the national anthem. It's a SHOW TUNE written by Irving Berlin.

For no reason or provocation Cook county Sheriff Dept attacked and provoked people who were exactly where they were told to be all day long. As usual, the cops are the provocateurs.

The great actress Diane Keaton has left us at the age of 79. Too soon to say good-bye to the woman who made us smile at the quirky Annie Hall, and who broke our hearts in Reds. Your charm and talent will be sorely missed.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you β€” no matter where you are on your journey.

I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

Each day, as I scroll social media, I bookmark videos to share with my son. Then, before bed, we squeeze into my chair & together we watch videos about lovely animals, goofy dogs, cool science. The more we watch, the more the algorithm sends them my way. We aren't doomscrolling β€” we're joyscrolling.
