Stephen Miller is to blame for the evil ICE is doing. Trump is to blame for listening to Miller. The Republican party is to blame for supporting Trump. MAGA voters are to blame for re-electing Trump. There's enough blame for all of them to share.

I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

I know I've made mistakes, but my family is NOT one of them. Everything I do now, I do for them and the love of ELA. I WILL get a career in the field, I WILL do my part to provide, and safeguard media literacy. I'll tell stories, try to be a good friend, and prove that I can keep all these promises~

Trumpism and Trumpists are incompatible with American culture and traditions and should be purged.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

I feel this in my bones!
Entirely too many extreme days lately.

Extremely good, extremely bad, extremely weird, extremely exhausting.

I just want, like, some nice boring days, please. Average hum drum days.

Can we make that happen?

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Friends and found family are the absolute best ya'll.

Being alone sucks, but you don't have to be, if you can just do the scary thing of reaching out.

And the more you do it, the easier it can get, and then you're seeing friends become friends and the web of connections populates out like magic.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Each day I think this Supreme Court can't hit a new low, and each day they manage to surprise me.
NEW: On the shadow docket, the Supreme Court lets Trump resume misgendering trans Americans on their passports, claiming "the government is merely attesting to a historical fact without subjecting anyone to differential treatment." All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

"With no check against racial gerrymandering, a system in which voters ostensibly pick their elected officials would become one in which elected officials are freer than ever to pick their voters, leaving Black voters with even fewer legal avenues to secure fair representation."
Wednesday is gonna be a rough day:

The Supreme Court will be hearing oral argument in a pair of cases that threaten what little remains of the federal government’s ability to protect voters from racial gerrymandering under the Voting Rights Act

The 2024 election was the easiest open book test America has ever taken, and holy shit did we fail.

I think about this almost every day. I can't help it. I am still astonished that this country is so filled with hateful, stupid people who couldn't slam their dicks in the door hard hard enough.
