Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

Everyone be careful, the real me is finally waking up. He's been asleep for 30 years.

There's probably something to be said about how this could be a metaphor for my personality and mental state, but I don't feel like putting in the effort to make this witty.

I started practicing "Happy Happy Joy Joy" from Ren and Stimpy just because it's funny...

But it turns out, it's a good practice/warm-up song for other fingerpicking tunes like "Tear the Fascists Down" by Woodie Guthrie.

Protesters with signs for solidarity protest

We are happy to see these continued protest going on! Join these brave volunteers at Cordel Hull building at 11am and onwards. This won’t be the last time you see their smiling faces, and hopefully they’ll see yours too!

Nervous Musk, Trump, Vance have all been outclassed in public arguments these last few days. Government failure, stock market crash, and dictatorial alliances are not popular. People are starting to realize that there is no truth here beyond the desire for personal wealth and power. (2/2)

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Thomas Jefferson once wrote, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure."

I hope we don't get to that point, but it sure feels like we're moving that direction. But I guess that's why we have the second amendment.

They don't care what this country once stood for, they only care about "sticking it to the libs."

This is infuriating and a little scary. If it progresses, there is no telling where we will end up...

There is a reason people are still praising Luigi.

Vice President Vance posted a tweet suggesting that it may be time to "defy the courts," and President Musk retweeted it. Every day, I get just a little bit angrier. There is a reason we have a system of checks and balances in this country. But it seems like about 40% of the country doesn't care.

Gonna thread all the coverage of #Nashville #50501protest #Tennesse that I find here.

We'll start with this one, because the fist in the air is my pseudo-son (it's a long story) and I'm SO PROUD OF HIM! 🏳️‍⚧️

I'm so proud of ALLLLL OF US who showed up. It was amazing. More to come in 🧵
