I'm too tired to be witty, but you might get lucky and catch me at the right level of sleep deprivation.

Democracy, fighting fascism, writing, escapism via books/travel/humor. Mother of dragon cats & foster kittens. A republic if we can keep it, indeed.

I am incredibly sick of living through a time in this country that is both historically evil and historically stupid.
Fuck my fucking law school.

Stephen Miller is doing raw, open white supremacy. The logics of Andrew Jackson and Adolph Hitler and every Jim Crow lynch mob.

And also, even the Wall Street Journal opinion page thinks the racism has gone too far, which is really saying a lot about exactly how extreme it is 🙃
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

Again, this was very clearly not Trump writing those posts and we should be discussing how an unelected Nazi in Stephen Miller is effectively the President of the United States (as opposed to the duly elected Nazi who doesn't know what day it is).

We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked

Yeah this is on par for Morrisey's level of competence.
Annnnnnd now the West Virginia governor says he's not sure about the condition of the National Guardsmen.

Maybe best to not tweet out that they are both dead until, you know, you KNOW that is absolutely the case...

National Guard soldiers didn't sign up to be deployed as local police indefinitely as part of someone else's political stunt.

They're not set up to be local police, they never should have been deployed.

A terrible thing. My heart is broken for their loved ones. 💔

But it's even bigger tragedy given there was absolutely no reason for them to be there.

Make no mistake, Patrick Morrisey's gleeful fascism is why members of the West Virginia national guard were occupying DC.
NEW: The governor of West Virginia says that two members of the state National Guard shot today in DC have died.

This is appalling and wrong.

AND, Biden deported Haitians to similar conditions throughout his term, including 20,000 people in a single month on 193 flights, which was until recently the record.

Fight for these human beings, and keep fighting for them if/when the Dems return to power.
DHS has announced the end of temporary immigration protections for Haitians.

The decision, effective Feb. 3, 2026, affects up to more than a half million Haitians. They now face returning to a country plagued by criminal gangs that control all major roads into the capital Port-au-Prince.
Trump says Haiti no longer meets requirements for TPS. Haitians have to leave
The Department of Homeland Security said TPS for Haiti ends Feb. 3, 2026, affecting over half a million people who may face return to gang-controlled Port-au-Prince.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

I was Scripps’s National Political Correspondent from 2016-18. The company’s news operation in the stations it owns across the country is honest and fair. Sinclair will make them right-wing propaganda outlets for an all-out push to prop Republicans up for the remainder of Trump’s term and beyond.

In the time since, we have been overwhelmed by how many of you find our work worth supporting.

No email this time around. But if you'd like to support indie media today, here's how:
