You can’t be punk and also be: Racist, sexist, homophobic or transphobic. It’s impossible.

The building we are in is one of the older ones, and the climate control system never seems to know what to do between 45 degrees and 65 - constantly cold. Today passed through that range.

Colonel Douglas Krugman, USMC, resigned early effectively self-demoting himself to Lieutenant Col., because of the immoral and illegal actions of the Trump administration. We need more Doug Krugmans in the military!

Emphasize this tomorrow on #NoKingsDay

Kaufmann has written a response to my piece that borders on nonsensical. He continues to assert that his use of unweighted data, something the organization he gets the data from explicitly has stated is incorrect on the record, is the best way to measure gender identity trends.

My update:

Since we are giving 40 Billion Dollars to Argentina, consider this your daily reminder that the ENTIRE USAID budget that was axed by DOGE was 35 Billion Dollars.

There was even a radio episode of "Gunsmoke" in which they deal with how Kitty was an outcast socially due to her profession.

When I was a teen I'd have done anything to LOWER my sperm count. I didn't want to father a child unintentionally, and barriers are not perfect.

@hntdove.bsky.social - Been thinking this a lot recently. All royalty did was pass the baton to the hyper-rich. They were never really gone.

The only difference between the most powerful oligarch and an emperor is the NAME. In history, wealth was power. If you controlled the land, the people on it were mostly YOURS. A very few times in history power has gone to ideology briefly, but it always comes back to who controls the most wealth

Hey folks. A new item from the town of Elgin, IL - #ICE placed an "AntiFa" #agitator in a protest there last weekend. He was identified and then fled to waiting ICE pickup truck which departed the area. EXPECT AGITATORS FROM ICE THIS WEEKEND AT NO KINGS EVENTS. #ICEAgitators

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."
