Since Election Day, I’ve gotten the following vaccines that I probably wouldn’t have otherwise: pneumonia, RSV, TDAP, shingles (x2), and - just today - MMR. Plus a COVID booster, which I would have gotten anyway. Resilience is important.

Absolute fucking 🔥. "Over eight hours...people throwing back tear gas...throwing anything that they could to defend themselves...Border Patrol retreated. “And the hundreds of workers in the factories were able to escape. If any community was going to fight back without apology, it was this one."

If the next escalation consists of a red-state governor offering (or being voluntold) to send troops to California… well, let’s just say it won’t be very good at all.

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

“Hope for the best but prepare for the worst,” that’s my motto. In a related development, I picked up some meds from the pharmacy today instead of waiting until tomorrow. These are uncertain times.

Watching Tom Homan talk and Stephen Miller tweet really drives home the fact that not only are they not sending in their best and their brightest, they don't HAVE any best or brightest.

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.
