I’m not usually a churchgoer but went this morning for my nephew’s christening, and in the sermon the priest specifically called out this administration’s attempt to erase trans people from society as unchristian and I immediately burst into tears.

AMEN. I’m sick of politicians trying to find a crowd they can lead instead of standing up for what they believe in and letting a crowd follow them.

We asked a friend’s older brother to buy us beer for our senior trip and he added a case of Zima because he thought it was funny but you know what? That shit was good (also we melted Jolly Ranchers into it because we were 18 and stupid)

95% of every dollar you give to a food bank goes directly to buying food. That’s the highest return of any nonprofit donation. And a food bank buys at scale and knows exactly what their community needs. Even if it’s just $5, GIVE CASH PLEASE!

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

“It’ll be a minute” in southern means a while. “It’ll be a good minute” means I hope you packed an overnight bag, because we can’t get to you until at least tomorrow.

one thing that Democratic politicians should take note of is that the overlap between “great political optics” and “actual morally good stuff” is really big right now

As gently as I can put it, the Administration is certainly governing as though they do not feel constrained by the US public being the most-armed public in modern history.

Stop calling it self-deportation. Start calling it a brain drain. Human capital flight. Skills loss. Talent attrition.

This is the same perverse Nazi logic that led Hans Asperger to distinguish between Autism and Asperger's Syndrome: those children who would be killed and those who would be used. Don't get bogged down in arguments about ability or humanity. These are overtures to genocide.

When I think of my friends who are nurturing and loving autistic children having to hear RFK say their children “will never write a poem,” my heart shatters into a million pieces. I hate this, and I hate him, and he’s fucking wrong when he denies the humanity of people with autism.

The DOGE cuts have hit local food banks especially hard. Even if it’s just $5, a recurring monthly donation has a HUGE impact. 95% of every dollar goes directly to buying food in your community. As we approach summer and school meals disappear, our food banks and our communities need us.

I know you aren't going to want to hear this but the reason the system can deport Mahmoud Khalil and send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador is that for years we've been executing factually innocent people like Marcellus Williams and sending legally innocent people to places like Riker's Island.

"Abolish ICE" was the correct take then and it's the correct take now.

Well that’s not a sight I expected to see in East Tennessee!
