Iโ€™ve read several articles today referring to RFK Jr. or Geier as vaccine โ€œskepticsโ€. I again beg the media to STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION. They are not skeptics. They are lying, grifting, unqualified frauds who are promoting a conspiracy. โ€œConspiracy theoristsโ€ would be much more accurate.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Tax cuts cost money. We have to pay for them. So every dollar that you spend in federal taxes is going to pay for some rich person's G-Wagon. And it's also going to cut an 8-year-old kid with autism's ability to access Medicaid. That's what they are putting on the table."

The United States is dead as an idea. Fuck it all.

My wife and I are seriously considering moving to Canada once her cancer treatment is over. I hope I'm not in one of RFK Jr's "wellness camps" by then. Being bipolar is bad enough without the threat of having my meds taken away, and being put into a camp. Fuck these guys.

No matter how bad things seem now, they will only get worse.

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

I'm writing a #steampunk novel. I hope I'm not too late to the SP party!

I am having trouble writing a villain as evil as Trump.

I don't read fantasy fiction. Yet I am writing a steampunk novel. And it's so much fun!

GO IRISH! I've never been this nervous about a football game.
