I'm going to sell as much stock as i can tomorrow before Trump figures out a way to F my savings up again.

Things always get a little weird when we go to Astoria for Crab and Wine Fest. This year was no exception.

He's still going strong. Only about an hour away from breaking the record.

Seventeen hours in and still going. If you aren't following this, you should be.

I've devoted over 20 years to teaching persuasive writing to international students. Regardless of your politics, this is a great article. The article was intelligent, respectful, and thoughtful. These qualities should be commended, not criminalized.

I keep reading these bleeding heart think pieces about how I should feel empathy and understanding for people who voted for Trump and now are feeling the pain of his policies. Let me be clear about this. I feel no empathy for them whatsoever.

Boo fucking hoo

I’m strongly considering moving to Canada. Would they have us or do they hate us all now? I wouldn’t blame them.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me

The whole point is not just the state disappearing whoever they want, it's you being in the habit of accepting the state choosing whom to disappear, without question. It's submission to the state. Same as with Gitmo after 9/11. The state's judgment must not be questioned.

I woke up to find Alan Dershowitz reacted to a five-year-old comment I made about his defense of Trump during the impeachment hearings. What do you make of this? Is it an "I told you so," or is he having 2nd thoughts? Why might he be reading old comments on stories about him today of all days?

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.

They talk openly and proudly of cutting entitlements and then deny it when you call them on it. If you wouldn't cut SS, why do you keep saying will? Do you think those cameras pointed at you don't work, or do you think we're too dumb to hear the words coming out of your mealy little mouth?

War heroes and military firsts are among 26,000 images flagged for removal in Pentagon's DEI purge References to a World War II Medal of Honor recipient, the Enola Gay aircraft that dropped an atomic bomb on Japan and women and minorities are among the tens of thousands of photos and online posts m...

When we repeat the mistakes of the past, it's like failing an open book test.

“Zero deaths of people biking in 2024. Deaths of people walking halved compared to 2021. A full eight years of safety investments in construction or getting lined up at SDOT. We can do this.”

Seriously, who would ever trust us again once we show that every eight years, we will tear up our treaties and sell out our friends.

Exclusive: Trump plans to revoke legal status of Ukrainians who fled to US, sources say U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is planning to revoke temporary legal status for some 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia, a senior Trump official and three sources familiar with the matter said, potentially putting them on a fast-track to deportation.

I'd like to take this moment to send a very special "Go fuck yourself!" to Donald Trump and every last asshole who voted for him. I hope you all choke to death on cheap bird flu eggs.

Here's looking at you, "The Washington Post."

I agree.

Great news for money launderers!
