Mine are pretty happy.

I think she’s also the highest ranking Muslim of any gender elected to statewide office.

The only other one I can think of is Keith Ellison, and he’s AG.

The article seemed like mostly AI ragebait slop, although I did wonder if it was meant to be satire.

But there’s always been this weird subset of trekkies that don’t get what the shows are actually about.

Do I have to pick one?

I love so many for so many reasons.

But maybe the purest expression of why I love Trek is the climax of β€œThe Stars At Night.”

You can also sing any Emily Dickenson poem to β€œThe Yellow Rose of Texas.”

When I have time. Meanwhile, adjusting myself to New England and deciding how well your books have prepped me.

Clueless Ted Cruz Shamed by NY Gov for Murdered Muslim Cop Insult The Texas senator was seemingly confused by the basic concept of showing respect to the deceased.

Do I want Kathy Hochul to be more progressive? Sure.
But stronger than her right now? Doubt it.
She wore a hijab to honor a Muslim officer. Cruz smeared him.
She shut him down with truth and spine.
I’ve regretted votes.
This one? I’ve only grown prouder.

Be safe, Senator. VA needs you.

@schumer.senate.gov If you give approval to this farce, you are proving decisively that you are unfit to represent the people of New York, and beyond unfit to lead your caucus.

And I assure you, the voters will remember the next time you’re on a primary ballot.

Hey, would you consider trying to change to β€œNew York Governor Letitia James” soon?

I’m supposed to be on tap for a bone-anchored one, but that’s time and money I don’t have right now.

It’s also the ear I’m deaf in. It’s rather like when we see Clint with his hearing aids. I like seeing myself on panel.

I hate that it took me as long as it did to finally deactivate, but I feel better now that it’s finally gone.

I admire your optimism that there will be something to undo.

At this point, let it burn.

I’m done trying to save something that doesn’t want to save itself.

I’m not sure which part I’m getting stuck on more. The fact that you’re right about what’s required, or the fact that it’s probably going to happen.

It’s not him, Mr Conway. It’s the people around him.

And with all due respect, you’re a well-off cisgender heterosexual white man. I truly appreciate your speaking truth to power, but there’s a reason those of us who are not at least one of those things worry. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ
