I’m reasonably literate, I’m woke, I’m a lifelong Democrat, I’m anti fascist, and I don’t suffer fools gladly. I live in a fact-based universe. Schadenfreude is a favorite hobby.

Must Artists Help Turn the Tide? A Saturday Prompt

“We ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism, and let freedom ring," Springsteen said.

I hope it inspires other artists to use their voices in this urgent time.

Everyone’s gonna be wide awake at his funeral. If only because they’ll play Kool & The Gang’s “Celebration” at full volume.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.

This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage.

Keep up the fight.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

If you attack the Capitol to overturn election results and to overthrow democracy on behalf of a criminal, you’re a hero.

If you attack a Tesla dealership, we’ll throw away the key.

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.
