Doge is auditing NASA today. This is absurd. The owner of Space X should not be auditing NASA. It’s a massive conflict of interest.

Valentine's Day, literary style. 💘📚

A really common abuser tactic is to push and harass a person over and over again until they lash out in response, and then be like, "Oh my God that was so awful of you! I can't believe you did that!" And I wish more people would realize that.

Worried about "dems setting a precedent so the gop will do it too"? GUESS WHAT for the last few decades the gop has been doing stuff and blaming the dems for THINKING about setting a precedent, even when they don't (and they never do). So why not, just for funsies, once, actually DO a thing?

Consider that organizations quickly bending to the DEI elimination "requirement" are not, in fact, obeying in advance, but are psyched to have the opportunity to go back to doing A Racism without consequence.

Happy Valentine’s Day

If you live in New York State and think Gov. Kathy Hochul should remove the corrupt mayor of NYC, give her a call or send her a letter.

This is where you go to tell the National Park Service to restore the word "transgender" in its entry on the Stonewall monument. (Scroll down.)

Quick cartoon: If you don't get this, it's okay. You're just too young for my jokes. Go watch a Star Wars or something :)

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

At the moment, mansion-sized Asteroid 2024-YR4 has a one-in-fifty chance of hitting Earth in the next eight years. Now might be a bad time to reduce spending on Science. Just sayin’.

BREAKING Federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson just issued an order preventing the Trump administration from: 1. Deleting CFPB data 2. Firing CFPB employees 3. Transferring money from CFPB's reserve fund Right after the order was issued, nearly all CFPB employees were placed on administrative leave

Speaking of the late Tom Robbins, I went to my website to make sure the links for Two Gays Contemplate a Straight were working, and of course I've had this quote up there forever (and even on my old site), but it sure hit different this morning.

"Unexpectedly" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here

BLACK HISTORY MONTH! JEFF TRAMMELL is the Director of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. I met him for lunch with Lenore Zann, the voice of ROGUE in both the X-Men & X-Men'97 Animated Series. We swapped animation "war stories", people we mutually knew, & how we avoid the toxicity of the Internet

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

Whenever anybody claims "rap isn't real music" or similar, I can't help but remember that ppl thought Mozart's operas were too vulgar for the ears of polite ladies, Van Gogh was a hack, and Shakespeare just a commercial playwright. You don't know what history will put a halo around
