Music plays
In the distance
A conversation
Overheard
Too far away
To be understood

Time does not pass
For me
As much as it
Skips ahead

Wind blows
Shakes the house
Competes with
The ghosts
For attention
Stairs creak
Like someone
Is coming up
To
Haunt
The haunting

If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

Tears linger
Tremble with the threat
Of falling
Like raindrops gathering
On a fence

Ghosts of words
Haunt my mind
Their remnants
Almost
Tell a story

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal:

“Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine."

I just can't call every day. My depression overwhelms me.

Fun Fact: Democrats are wearing pink tonight as a symbolic protest against people who want them to do something meaningful

Donald Trump and JD Vance are Russian assets.

Pass it on!

I have to say that very few people have consistent morality for both Ukraine and Gaza, but Trump does: His friends get to murder and steal.

One is a wannabe dictator and one is the president of a democratic country.

Can you guess which is which?

Feeling dark

Artists protest new NEA restrictions Hundreds of artists signed a letter sent to the National Endowment for the Arts asking it to reverse policy changes made as a result of recent executive orders issued by President Trump.

Death Throes

God song celebrations
Gun barrels pressed
Into women's abdomens
A seduction
Nobody wants
By the time
People realize
We are convulsing
And not dancing
It will be
Too late

Yay!

All these Tech Bros grew up loving Luke Skywalker and then became Darth Vader for the money.

Never underestimate the power of the Dark Side.

okay but you aren’t

again, you could be shutting down all senate business by denying every single unanimous consent request, you could be down at Treasury with cameras, you could be doing something other than issuing strongly worded statements

your actions have to match what’s happening

I look at the horizon
At the remaining glow
Of sunlight
At the water
And I almost feel
Hope

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”
- Dr. Martin Luther King

Spending the day honoring Dr. King and his profound wisdom. #MLKDay

Dr. King said it best.

Afraid
To the point
That I lean
Into tired

MAGAs are majorly F-ed up.

Mist settles
Between the trees
Brings sleep
To the yard

so if I'm understanding the tech-bro position correctly, it's this

Handheld assurance
A broken peace
In the pocket of
Wandering stars
A hope to
Make our dust shine
With its ancient splendor
Thin shadow cast
Upon a single stone
Invisible
Yet held by the world
Cleaving to moments
An eye sees
Beyond what
The sun touches
