I don’t really want any followers.

Refuses to be cowed by the greed and idiocy of the right. Likes to see the arrogant brought low. Humanist. Indignant reply-guy.

Occasional jokes.

Alls I can say is that I’m way the eff smarter than David Brooks.

🧵This 58-year-old nurse from Maryland is seen being violently dragged along the ground by officials in Ghana.

Trump deported her there.

This abhorrent & disgusting abuse of a woman who saved American lives and cared for injured and ill Americans for 30 years.

All the details below are worse.

Rabbiatu Kuyateh was detained this summer at her annual ICE check-in, her son said. She moved to the D.C. area 30 years ago as she fled civil war in Sierra Leone.

How can health insurance cover 100% of the cost of my surgery, but none of the anesthesia.

Are they suggesting that I should have just done the surgery awake?

CDC needs to study if felching causes autism

The NYT’s starry-eyed view of Trump’s bumbling, narcissistic bullying will never cease to amaze me…

Any updates to the CDC website on the health risks of felching?

For her next act, I have a feeling that MTG is gonna focus on “affordability”, getting the price of chicken over rice down, rent freezes, and government-run grocery stores.

Over-under on how long until MTG is on DWTS…?

I’m listening to this NPR, Here & Now piece on IVF and it’s sounding to me like a total right-wing propaganda piece.

Am I the only one….

All the slick language of anti-abortion zealots.

Sure, the Trump era has been a disaster, but at least he's brought back expansive metaphors and florid prose.

What’s Cheryl’s take on Olivia’s book?

Seems like more than a “digital”relationship to me.

If you’re a star, they let you do it, I guess

Ah yes, “blending”… 🤦‍♂️

Heard in the NYT offices today: “Hey Peter, what’s another way of saying ‘blatant corruption’?”

The only response to a politician or govt official who is suppressing the Epstein files should be: “Are you in the Epstein files? Is that why you are trying to keep them hidden?”

One man’s opinion:

Democrats new slogan should be “For the people”.

Thursday headlines:

“CBS to name JojoFromJersey as new head of News Division”

“WaPo names Josh Marshall as new editor of editorial page”

All their pandering to the right over the last year is looking extra dumb and weak.

FFS, “Already Gone” is a crazy repetitive song. 😫👈

People on here are so nice. I think the only times I've gotten hassled, it's been bots.

Preciate you

We should run a contest for the best Trump insult rant… I mean a rant of insults to and about Trump.

Could do like a fundraiser for charity.
