So now they are openly advocating for my murder and those like me. Cool cool cool cool cool
If this comes to pass are folks just going to be walking in the streets with signs about it as they haul me away? Is anyone going to stand up and protect me? Or are we going to abide by civility while the monster slowly picks us all off?

There needs to be a version of "do it scared" for writers that equates to "write it, even if you worry you're not good enough to write it"

Until Judges start giving Trump officials real consequences for violating orders, they are going to violate orders.

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

About 40% of SNAP recipients are children. Around half of ALL children in the country are covered by Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
And the so-called “party of family values” gutted both programs by billions of dollars.
Doesn’t sound very pro-family to me.

I'm going to say something that is going to sound brutal and cause a lot of people to unfollow or unfriend me.
They never should have deployed or obeyed illegal orders. I have no sympathy for them.

If you’re wondering why there’s a lull in the Epstein files discussion, it’s because the law that just passed gave Pamela Jo 30 days to release the files. So we’re all waiting to see how she tries to sabotage it. The discussion will pick back up in earnest on December 20th.

Gupta: It’s clear that there’s age-related cognitive decline.
He’s confused a lot. He sometimes mumbles sort of incoherent nonsense when he’s asked a question in the Oval Office.
Clearly they’re not getting MRIs just because, because that’s the moment that we live in. There’s a reason

From 2022-23 I built a dataset using news stories of 2000+ times Canadian drivers crashed into people and structures. It prompted lots of questions, which I want to answer through a series of blog posts.
My first post outlines the data and some of those questions.

The trajectory to 2035 matters. Coal generating a lot or a little before 2035 is the difference between massive climate impacts and very little climate impacts. This narrative of 'inevitability' is dangerous and stokes severe complacency.

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.
