No worries! Seriously though, I've had a couple other gals say "I don't think I like your politics but your name is creepy." It's time. And thanks for the kind words! I actually started a protest here in Seattle every Saturday at noon called "bury the broligarchs" and it's still going ✊

Truth. Super creepy if you think about it. I initially picked it because that's the name of my business. I'm an actual handyman πŸ‘¨πŸ»β€πŸ”§
I certainly didn't choose the name of my vocation as it's decidedly sexist but that's how it shows up on the license. Changing it now. Mustn't give the wrong impression πŸ˜…

Yeah, and the numbers have been in for quite a long time now. Immigrants, both documented and undocumented, commit a tiny fraction of the crime that "natural born Americans" commit per capita. As immigrants get deported, our overall crime rate goes up.

the Trump administration says that they're trying to kick "illegal voters off the rolls" but they're actually trying to kick natural born and naturalized citizens off. Trump has made it clear. Anyone who doesn't vote for him shouldn't be voting at all. I'm sorry all this crap is happening to you!

Finished making a channel switch for an amp I'm building. On this fourth of July, the day we celebrate independence and freedom, I dub thee Maria. Maria makes my amp LOUD.
Be like Maria.

Tesla speeds up odometers to avoid warranty repairs, U.S. lawsuit claims Tesla faces a proposed class action claiming it speeds up odometers on its EVs so they fall out of warranty faster, saving the company from paying repairs.

Trump's election order could jeopardize 'hundreds of thousands' of future mail ballots Eighteen states count mail-in ballots that are received after Election Day, but a new order by President Trump challenges the practice.

He's not going to leave willingly. We have 3 1/2 years to come up with some kind of contingency plan

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp.

As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of β€˜exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

Truth! We need boots on the ground. The media is not going to cover anything so we need to get out in the street. I organize a weekly demonstration in my neighborhood every Saturday at noon. There should be one of these in every neighborhood until the fascists are kicked out of our government

And to be clear, this is directed at "Christians" that haven't the foggiest idea what Jesus was trying to teach. This here atheist is in lockstep with all y'all christians that preach kindness, love, tolerance, and service.

It's Time to suspend "Thanksgiving dinner table rules"on all public forums from here on forward. Christian Nationalist Fascism is no longer just at our doorstep. It's breaking windows. It's getting in. Get out there and be loud. Vote with your dollars. The Revolution will NOT be televised

Why housing affordability keeps getting worse Rising prices and a shortage of affordable homes have driven many folks to rent.

Americans are suffering under the weight of sky-high housing prices.

Today, I’m re-introducing my bill with @warnock.senate.gov and @cleaver.house.gov to build 3 million new homes, bring down rents by 10%, and cut red tape that drives up costs.

Congress must act.
