It's that time again! If you're feeling energized by May Day, and if you didn't already invest in a fancy hat for the Kentucky Derby, why not join Fox City Lit for an afternoon of prose and poetry by some talented local authors of the DMV? Hope you can make it! 🦊

Watching Upstart Crow on Britbox, Erika and I are debating whether Kit Marlowe dying his hair is an effective way to go undercover. It's a full on Clark Kent / Superman situation. But maybe that's enough?

If your argument against higher education is that people become liberal when they get educated, you're kind of telling on yourself.

To all the #AWP folks free for a Saturday offsite, come check out this great lineup at Audio Graph Beer Co. #AWP25

Hear me out: We convert Chuck Schumer into a vending machine serving matzoh soup. In the coming U.S. Civil War and the global conflict that results, the last isolated pockets of humanity will rebuild civilization based upon a rock-hard sense of the common good and the fabled Schumer matzoh recipe.

I keep looking for a middle ground between #swasticar and #felon and #f_elon and #billionairepegging and #grimestmz and #failedpenissurgery and #palewhalebod and #molotovcocktails and stuff. But then I remember that Elon Musk never created anything. He just bought companies with inherited wealth.

Very glad that the US government is now operating on merit, hiring only the best. Otherwise, a bunch of rich white male teenaged interns who were fired from their last gigs for fraud and corruption might not have had the chance to take over the IRS and the Social Security Administration. #swasticar

I was priced out of D.C. years ago. My NoVA life has lots of benefits, like enough $$ to move back to the city. I won't. I like where I am. People in D.C. wear masks. My first happy hour in NoVa, the bartender talked sports. Then asked: "You do know that jet fuel can't melt steel beams?" Authentic.

One thing that keeps throwing me about 1938 Weimar Version 2.0 is: while it's turning out to be similarly devastating & disheartening for fans of democracy everywhere, today's totalitarians are dorks who dress like pubescent edgelords & drunk Bronies. Srsly, where's your Hugo Boss fashion, bros?

If I know anything from my decades of studying tariffs on tulips, it's that the end result is always cannibalism. And the top politician is always the first to go.

Teslers are on the road every day, they tell me.

Turns out my severe OCD is just my brain's way of compensating for my severe ADHD.

Nothing says winning like tens of thousands of people suddenly unemployed while planes randomly fall from the sky. #DOGEbags #PresidentMusk

Tell me you know how to make a Molotov cocktail without showing me a Molotov cocktail. #killtherich #thatsjustthenameofthebook #eventhoughyestherichhavebeenkillingusforprofitsincebirth #andanyonewholivesoffofagrandparentspatentshoulddie #myfamilyslandwasstolenbyandrewkackson #nevertrustandrews

DJ Jazzy Theft here has saved the US a few million dollars on DEI while scoring more than 150 billion for himself, tax free. But when you look at the Dogebag cum-purse that is his plasticine face (he ordered the "male superhero" surgery and got the "incel") aren't you proud, America?

That tattoo on my chest? Why, no that's just in German. It says, "The, Trump. The."
