A fully Kool-Aid-soaked MAGA supporter recently told me Trump was "our Lord and Saviour." I never thought I would see this day, but if Democrats don't wake the f*ck up and fight back soon, we will be forced to submit to these deviants and reply with...

Happy International Women's Day! May every woman find their way into the room where their voice is most needed—whether that's a board room, a legislature, or a PTA meeting. When we stand up and speak our values, women change the world!

Montana is extremely lucky to have Zooey Zephyr and SJ Howell standing up in front of openly transphobic lawmakers who wanted to pass a bill that would /take trans kids away from their parents./ Thank you to them, and to the Republicans who crossed the aisle. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This is utter nonsense - Trump is crashing an economy in decent shape before he took office, and he is doing it so he can "rescue" it for his billionaire cronies (like your owner). Stop acting as a shill for this clown show and report about what's really going on. Integrity dies in daylight.

Late-morning thoughts: why should anybody listen to Elon Musk about practically anything? Especially when he has demonstrated that he doesn't care about anybody other than himself, has a fragile ego, and perhaps most importantly, the Dunning-Kruger effect shows up in almost everything he says. Why?

NEW: The murders of two people outside an LGBTQ+ bar at first looked like the act of a lone shooter. A ProPublica and @frontlinepbs.bsky.social investigation shows they were, in fact, the culmination of a coordinated, international recruiting effort by online extremists.

“The president of the United States is illegally impounding critical research funds in an attempt to silence members of the Columbia community. As a university committed to free inquiry, free expression and the rule of law, we categorically reject these efforts and will see him in court.”

It’s too bad we have no defenses whatsoever against this. It’s a real mystery why society has no strategies for dealing with—or even words to describe—chronic liars, career con-artists, frauds, grifters, humbugs, mountebanks, flim-flammers, and gombeen men. One of the deepest puzzles of social life.

Very early morning thoughts: Trump's destruction of the Federal government is motivated by greed. He wants to remain president to make money (and stay out of jail). Bezos, Musk, Zuckerberg, and other billionaires are in on this. We have to organize and act to hold them and the GOP accountable.

the tragedy of American journalists is Trump is entirely serious about his drive for neo-imperial rule - the inability to realize the current set of tariffs are illegal under USMCA - missing that Trump is trying to kick us out of FYEY/NORAD - missing that Trump has threatened to revise borders

Morning thoughts: It would be really good if two things happened - if the US media would interrogate and challenge politicians the way European journalists do, and if the Democrats would start campaigning now as the opposition to Trump and tie him around the necks of the Republicans.

Which is seen with sapphic tradpub vs. lesbian self published literature: as western culture approaches fascism, what publishers are willing to publish becomes limited. So what we get in tradpub is the pale shadows of desire (if that) - it's only in self-pub we get to eat (sometimes literally)

Mid-morning thoughts: the GOP has tended to be better at campaigning than the Democrats. Democrats need to be a real opposition party, so they need to start campaigning NOW for the next election: town halls in GOP districts, holding weekly press conferences showing GOP harms to the public, and more.

A guy who threatened to fund opponents to run against them is now the putative leader of Congress. Just like that. All because men who claim to hate D.C. would rather sell their souls and betray their country rather than go back to live in Shreveport,LA, Carthage, Kentucky, and Troy, Ohio.

Thoughts at the edge of dawn: in Trump's world, there's nothing wrong with threatening to take Greenland or invade Canada. That's insane and we should all call it that. What's more insane are all the Republicans acting like this is somehow ordinary and perfectly fine. We need to call that out NOW.
