Watching Murderbot tonight, tension building beautifully, then explosion and fade to black, me shouting out “FUCK!” as credits began to roll. Again, I have to wait a week?!? Damn, they’re killing me!!! ;-)

The enemy of my enemy still did two Nazi salutes.

Next to Trump and Musk, Shatner and I look like adoring newlyweds.

One of my birthday gifts to myself!

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Sadly, the battle is far from over, and we’ve had massive defeats this year…

Well, this is fun. After a night where it felt extremely difficult to stay asleep, after waking I keep getting dizzy spells every time I move my head. They die down if I lay still, but when I try to move again, my head starts swimming and my eyes keep “sliding” off what I’m looking at. WTF?!!

Dozens of companies who sponsored Pride marches last year have pulled out this year, including: Dyson Nivea Tiffany & Co. Capital One UPS Disney DoorDash Live Nation Nissan Citi Corporate Pride was always a hoax. https://popular.info/p/pride-and-prejudice-in-corporate

I did get _some_ writing done tonight, even though it’s in a scene near the end of the book and will likely be thrown away when I get back here. Kinda fun to do the maniacal villain thing knowing it’s disposable. Only 230 words, but that’s more than I had earlier today. G’Night, folks! #amWriting

Ew. So much for yet another of my favorite authors since childhood…

Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

While I’m on a self-deprecating streak, I’m amused at people who say, “the first step is the hardest.” They obviously don’t know a lot of AuDHD folk.

I really think there’s an appetite for a party that opposes the Republican Party. If somebody were to start such a party, I think it could do well.

RIP Jonathan Joss (December 22nd 1965 - June 1st 2025).

I’m very frustrated with myself the past couple of days. For several weeks, I’ve put other activities, some necessary, some not, ahead of my writing. As I completed another solar orbit over the weekend, I told myself I needed to return to writing. But all I’m managing to do is stare at it and wail.

Shame on you @schiff.senate.gov!

Happy Pride from the DUI-hire Secretary of Defense… www.military.com/daily-news/2...

So sleepy, dementia-ridden Biden who organized a crime ring so devious and nefarious that Congress itself could find no evidence of the crimes committed by the family has been a robot since Trump had him executed in 2020, and now that robot has developed prostate cancer that has spread to its bones?

Cartoon: Marsha P. Johnson - one of the heroes of Gay Rights Activism and the Stonewall Riots, punching Hitler ala Captain America comics #1 . As tempting as it was to 'update' Hitler for modern targets I decided to go with the classic. Offered up with respect this Pride Month.

Trump just reposted on TruthSocial that Joe Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced by "clones, doubles, and robotic engineered soulless mindless entities."

Fingers crossed, everybody!

pride is next week pride wasn't brought to you by delta air lines, microsoft, coca-cola or even the democratic party. it was brought to you by trans women throwing bricks at cops and lesbians taking care of gay men dying of AIDS during reagan. do not forget where we came from. now more than ever.

Troopers in Central Florida appear to have been given direction not to wear their name tags during ICE operations.

Awesome season end for Doctor Who up until the last few minutes. That… that was disappointing. Please, no spoilers in responses! I got spoiled by checking social media before I had a chance to watch, and I don’t want to be the cause of anyone else getting spoiled.

Folks Trump has no authority to fire the National Portrait Gallery director and no one need report it as if he does

definitely not something an authoritarian government would do

Not the least bit worrisome… 😳 Trump Taps Palantir to Create Master Database on Every American newrepublic.com/post/195904/... via @newrepublic.com

Rubio saying he’ll revoke visas for foreign countries that don’t believe in free speech. Whilst Bondi threatens to arrest people for saying booboo against King CheetoCorrupto.

Yep, Murderbot was pretty great tonight. Halfway through the season now. Sure hope Apple will produce additional seasons!

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.
