There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success. The fertile earth, the straight tree rows, the sturdy trunks, and the ripe fruit.

Well, since all the “conscience conservatives” have quit and the entire trump admin is just nazis, we won’t have to suffer through any more anonymous “I am the resistance in the trump administration” op eds at least

Tell me about it.

Any Dem who can stand with people like this will be the nominee in 2028. Stand up.

Severance asking the important questions, like is hooking up with the innie and outie versions of someone a polycule, and is it cheating to date your spouse’s innie. Philosophical show!

How much is a ketamine overdose? Just wondering

Modern problems require modern solutions: shop egg

The guy who plays Reacher is not my type, but he is also exactly my type if you get what I’m saying

If you put a plotline in your novel where several of the billionaire’s baby mamas have to use his social media platform to reach him people would think it was unrealistic

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

Once the shock wears off, I encourage every laid off federal worker to reach out to @runforsomething.net. Congress stole your job? Primary your congressperson and take their job

After EO 9066, my great uncle wrote to the Santa Rosa Press Democrat: “I believe the day will come when most people will consider the indiscriminate forced evacuation of American citizens who happen to be of Japanese Lineage as one of the darkest blots on the history of the United States.”
