Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

It’s absolutely shameful that anyone would propose turning the sacred & deeply personal journey of seeking citizenship into a twisted reality show spectacle. This is exploitation. Reducing human lives, hopes & struggles to a game for ratings and white mans entertainment is disgusting #MomSky

This is great. Everyone in the House has to put their name next to a yes or no on impeachment (even if by proxy) and I look forward to every D who votes to table (ie kill) the resolution today explaining to the electorate over the next 18 months why they shouldn't be primaried

Yesterday, Robert Prevost asked everyone to start calling him by a different name. And they did. No outrage or shaming over this request. See how easy it is to honor other people's benign wishes?

If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

Good time to subscribe to Wired. I used to think of it as a guilty pleasure at the newsstand, a holdover from nerdy youth. But they are doing an excellent job covering key elements of our political reality.

donald trump and the entire rights reaction to this moment has shown they were unprepared for any of the backlash they’re receiving and that’s why it has to be kept up

The Byrds release “Mr. Tambourine Man” today in 1965. “If you’re someone who grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, the song is like a little telegraph, said David Byrne. “Hearing that, I realised: I have to get out of here because .. there’s a whole world out there that I don’t know anything about.”

We don’t have to let Trump wreck our economy with tariffs—that’s a choice. The Constitution gives trade authority to Congress, not the President. Congress delegated tariff powers to the President and we can take them back. We have the bills (one is mine). We just need enough support to pass them.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

This is a "post turtle." He doesn't belong there, he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't know what he's doing, and it makes you wonder what sort of an idiot put him there. Donald Trump is a post turtle.

In case anyone is struggling with what happened last week, like I am, I’ve written ten ways we can take care of ourselves. #1. Exercise. At a time like this when we can’t help but let our thoughts get carried away with themselves, we have to do what we can to get out of our own heads.

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
