Coherence is such a good movie - follow the trend and go watch it. It’s worth it.

I know things are terrible, but this moment requires your energy and boundless hope to help when the moment calls for it -- both of those things come from compassion for yourself, as much as you can manage right now.

Guard your heart and mind, and be ready for a neighbor in need.

converting to linux in my downtime (as I search for a job in a sector that's barely clinging to life and rapidly abandoning its integrity) sounds like a welcome distraction and morally good decision actually

I’m gonna be angry at you for wanting higher wages

I’m gonna be angry at you for being on food stamps

I’m gonna be angry at you for working full time and being on food stamps

I’m gonna be angry at you for trying to get me to connect the dots to the actual problem

At this point, if you're interviewing a Republican about the president's latest transgression and you *don't* have the video or post or whatever cued up and ready to show them when they pretend they haven't seen it yet -- I'm just going to assume you're in on the con yourself.

Imagine being so hated that every time there’s a protest against you, it breaks the record for largest single-day protest of all time, which was held by the last protest against you.

Imagine sucking that much.

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world,... I feel like I can't take it. And my heart is just going to cave in.

There was a shooting near my house today in Grand Blanc Michigan. Nurses on strike from the nearby hospital left their strike to go help victims. Please share and also let the hospital know how much they are appreciated!
