Neurodivergent geek. I spent my childhood and early adulthood trying to be "normal". Not my thing. I vibe best with other neurodivergents doing geeky things like RPGs, fandoms, and other forms of stirring up some dopamine.

Cruelty is the Republican Party's oxygen.
Trumpβs ICE goons dragged a childcare worker out of a bilingual daycare and preschool in front of children and parents.
This is who Trump claims is the βworst of the worstβ β a woman who has dedicated her life to educating and caring for children.
The cruelty is the point.
TurboTax makers Intuit have lobbied the government for years to block free public tax-filing.
Now Trump has terminated the free IRS Direct File program, nearly a year after Intuit gave his inauguration $1M.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
What is performative action again???

Just when I think Pete Hegseth is the worst person in the Trump administration, Kristi Noem says something, and I change my mind, then Pam Bondi says something, then JD Vance says something, then Stephen Miller says something, but then Donald Trump says something. Contest over.

Why are they so scared of Zohran?
Because they know he will end their unchecked power over working people and build a city that works for the working class.

California is fighting fire with fire and standing up for democracy everywhere. Vote yes on Prop 50 by mail or in person on Election Day, this Tuesday, November 4.
Please note what happened here. By challenging Trump to pause his terror raids for Halloween, Pritzker forced Kristi Noem to come out *for* continuing to traumatize kids. Polarizing these debates draws attention/forces MAGA depravity into the light.
