Husband. Writer. More political than I want to be because we have to. I'm just a guy yelling into the void hoping by the time the echo returns this will all already be over.

#NoKings in Chattanooga in red TN

Remember not only the fallen whose names we know, but the nameless fallen too. And as we increasingly must defend the Constitution from enemies domestic, think not if your name will be remembered but your efforts.

When you accidentally admit your economy is so bad people can't afford $20

Average life span for white American males is 74.8 years and Trump is turning 79 in June

So if it turns out the POS POTUS really wasn't duly elected then all those pardons, executive orders etc just get tossed right? RIGHT?

When you're trying to ruin *ahem* run America but can't even spell America

Is it 1/20/2029 yet?

Trump: Anyone caught dumping tea into Boston harbor will have to get a car that spontaneously combusts. #FucktheMuskarchy

Trump stands with Russia but the American people stand with Ukraine.

So are American taxpayers paying for Musk to have a Secret Service detail since he's the one actually running the country?

People who voted for Trump are one of three things: 1. Stupid 2. Fascists 3. Both

MAGA don't exactly have the best track record of abiding by poll results.

Y'all do realize it's only been about 2 and 1/2 weeks right?

Drunk drivers to use precedent to blame the Easter Bunny for crossing the center line.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

Even God won't give him a warm welcome

idk why but every time I post on FB about how a bunch of people are planning on quitting FB, Instagram, Threads, Whatsapp and Twitter Monday at noon the post disappears really fast...

There have been times throughout our history that tragedy caused Americans to unite in saying "Never forget." The Alamo, Pearl Harbor, 9/11. Four years ago 1/6 should have been one of those times. The fact that it wasn't will forever be a stain on those who did not and still do not condemn it.

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope each and every single one of you has a good one and a great New Year

Maybe we're stressed for no reason. Trump starts his term as a lame duck. So maybe if every time he says something crazy everyone just says "ok grandpa" and rolls their eyes, we get through the next 4 years before we know it.

I miss the 90s when the worst political scandal was a President lying about getting a BJ so his wife wouldn't find out.

The downfall of America will be looked back on as the direct result of a bunch of stupid fucking people voting for a stupid fucking person

Did the Trump transition have to happen during Daylight Savings? I'm already so fucking tired.

Trump raped E. Jean Carroll

If a post on Twitter was a Tweet, what do we call posts here?

"Lame duck" sounds like a good band name

Is it over yet?

Day after Thanksgiving leftovers sandwich has got to be in my top 5 favorite sandwiches.

Remember the Supreme Court ruled Trump could be on the ballot in CO b/c Section 3 of the 14th Amendment didn't apply to an insurrectionist or someone who gave aid or comfort to an insurrectionist being on the ballot but to being an elected official like oh say the President.

Trying to think of what I'm thankful for & it's harder than most years. I'm thankful for my wife wholly & completely (that one is easy), my health, my mind, writing I'm passionate about, music that moves me, going out on the lake in my kayak. The little things are going to be so much more important.

My attitude this time around is entirely different than 2016. I watched the news all the time & tried to warn people before the 2016 election & on thru the 2024 election too. But now I'm spent. World and USA screwed? Not my fault, I tried. All the MAGA & swing Trump voters can own it.

Betcha all the swing voters who voted for Trump because they thought prices were too high don't have a fucking clue he just announced 25% tariffs that will *checks notes* make prices 25% higher.

Actively wondering what all I buy from Canada, Mexico and China

Binging The Handmaid's Tale and Hulu keeps showing an ad for Eroxon gel so men can get hard. During. The Handmaid's. Tale.
