I have no dog in the race, just interesting to watch. And the collective crash outs happening in certain social media spaces.

OKAY BUT SERIOUSLY. And if you even mention that, you get dragged on certain socials. I’m like…. We are all anti grandma and grandpa as long as it’s not your favorite grandpas and grandmas.

Honestly, agreed.

I like Platner and am rooting for him. But I want to ultimately win. And if an extremely popular but old Governor is the way to WIN, so be it. Primaries aren’t bad, whoever comes out at the end will be tested and ready for a general election. May the best candidate win.

if you think Janet Mills, who is the same age as Elizabeth Warren and 7 years younger than Bernie Sanders is disqualified because of age, you must disqualify Lizzie and Bernard from their next Senate races.

My sister has a business and a market, it was the 2 year anniversary so we went up to celebrate with her just north of Little Rock.

This morning in Arkansas, a beautiful, crisp fall morning.

Now, back in Houston, 90 degrees and humid.

I keep wondering why I still live here. (Not that I would ever live in Arkansas cause ew but the weather 😫😫😫)

It may be—for now—a mild form of fascism. Political opponents aren’t being jailed or shot, entire opposition media outlets aren’t being shuttered, and books aren’t being burned.

But from Chicago to Portland, James Comey to Letitia James, and so much else—this is no longer America. trib.al/a0i8hTE

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

It’s atrocious.

Derek ✨ @iamderekh.bsky.social · 5d

90 degrees in mid October is fucking unacceptable.

Spooky Szn is normally a VERY busy time in our home, we start decorating in September. However, this year I decided to revamp all our skeletons & animatronics. I DID NOT realize the amount of time & work that would go into it 🥵 finally finishing up & can’t wait to show everyone the end result 😈☠️🎃👻✨

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms trailer has me HYPE. I love the world building of this and can’t wait to see the story unfold.

Hearing “FUCK ICE” on the news as they cover the protests in Chicago is music to my ears.

Derek ✨ @iamderekh.bsky.social · 6d

Damned if you do damned if you don’t at this fucking point. 😂
