We now have a concentration camp in Florida.

Stop pretending any of this is normal.

If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.

Be human.

It's an old song. But I think it has a vibe for today's stress.

I’m also the product of Star Trek, Sesame Street, and Muppet Movies.

I think we can do anything with hard work, dreaming just a little bigger and maybe singing along the way.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

-- Arthur C. Clarke, born #OTD 1917

Writing is an act of rebellion.
Writing is an act of creation.
Writing is an act of salvation.
Writing is an act of exploration.
Writing is an act of emotion.
Writing is an act of confession.
Writing is an act of speculation.
Writing is an act of reflection.
Keep writing.

Thou Shalt Not Give Up the Fight When you think it's all over, it's not over.

Dear Humans,

I know how you feel.

Exhausted. Confused. Scared. I feel it too.

But hear me out!

Art class should never stop being a thing. Like if right after lunch we all got to go down to the basement for an hour, throw on a smock, and make collages out of old magazines while somebody's eccentric, slightly witchy aunt tells us how great we're doing, I feel like we'd all be in a better place.

Markwayne Mullin on Hegseth’s drinking:

TAPPER: Drinking at 10 in the morning, that’s a drinking problem.

MULLIN: Yeah & there’s probably a lot of media that has a drinking problem too.

TAPPER: A drunk reporter who is drinking at 10 AM…is not in charge of the 3 million person defense department.πŸ’₯

Never forget that in 1861 Charles Darwin wrote in a letter to a friend..

β€œBut I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything"

...because this is my favorite reminder that we can do great things even if we don't always have great days
