2006-2024 I was on Twitter. Then the apartheid emerald mine nepo baby happened. Artist. Lurking with my hoard of books, eating my feelings. I occasionally visit my studio to bash away at scrap metal. High voltage may be involved.

ICE is probably causing an increase in crime.

I’m not referring to the many crimes committed by ICE officers—though one certainly could—but to how they’ve enabled criminals by giving them opportunities to impersonate masked ICE officers and by pulling cops off of police work to do harassment.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

Please remind us who the domestic terrorists are again.

I’m not … happy… as such, because I’m kinda already at my full lid on bad news.
But I respect that news like that needs to be more common knowledge.

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

I attended a statewide coordinating meeting for a civil rights-related issue. Some older women, probably retired (but no retired men). Most were women who work full-time. Not an original observation but damn, most labor is done by women.

Pardon me if I delay celebrating this vile cretin losing until those poor Sandy Hook families he victimized for cheap publicity see all of the cash. I don't trust him for a second.

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

Granted, but we are also the smallest demographic/generation, since we’re dialing into the data.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Leave Gen X alone. We're not running/destroying the country. Miller is a millenial and Trump is a boomer. We're just quietly living with our brain damage while listening to Sleater Kinney.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
