A David Lynch quote for every creative person who may need it today. It resonated with me when I came across it reading it in Lynch on Lynch.

Finally watched the first episode of The White Lotus. It's a pass for me.

Why am I playing Block Blast again?!

thinking of becoming a full on pocket constitution guy

It's 100% a no for me. And I used to love Target.

Never forget.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Senator Bernie Sanders is going off about Donald Trump and Jared Kushner's proposed "Riviera" in Gaza: "There is a name and a term for forcibly expelling people from where they live. It is called 'ethnic cleansing.' It is illegal and it is a war crime." Thank you, Bernie!

75%. Damn. None should have been taken without due process. This is fkd beyond belief. Shocking and not at the same time.

“Be as courageous as you can…if none of us is prepared to die for freedom, then all of us will die under tyranny.” Lesson 20 If you haven’t read the book, On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder, I highly recommend it. It’s a very quick read with great info. youtu.be/cXR5HLodsT8?...

New in PN: John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him. "After all, how can the rightwing justices expect a future president — particularly a Democratic one — to accept rulings limiting the exercise of their power from a Court that served as the judicial stooge of an aspiring dictator?"

We are in an age of guerilla archiving. We are all going to have to do the work of preserving history & culture on a micro-basis. I’ve deliberately focused on Black joy so you’ll find adventure and fantasy more than you’ll find overcoming and stoic resilience. Get the list 👇🏾👇🏾 tinyurl.com/2m9bx2jb

Countries that have issued a travel advisory this year warning their citizens about visiting the United States: Canada Denmark Finland France Germany Ireland Netherlands New Zealand United Kingdom

Imagine if Republicans expressed even half the outrage at children being murdered in school shootings as they do for a few Teslas being vandalized.

My maternal grandmother died in the 1918 flu pandemic. RFK Jr can go fuck himself.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado. 11,000 people showed up. Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

The secretary of transportation went on Fox & Friends this morning and trashed air travel, portraying the current air traffic control system as a disaster, and then claimed taking public transit is "dangerous." I miss the DEI days when it was safe to travel.

Saving a YouTube video to "Watch Later" usually means I won't watch it later. Is it just me?

Hear, hear park rangers!

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

I don't even really drink like that bui I might have a Margarita.

Dear traditional print media with online subscriptions, I am begging you to let me pay $1 for an article. Or, to just have 1 week unlimited access for $2. Or just come up with SOMETHING so that I can occasionally just give you some damn money for the one thing I want to read w/o a subscription.

Damn. We have two super old paid off Toyotas. Now looking for the most ethical replacement when we can save up some $$.

Wow. Rep. Chuck Edwards is getting torn apart at a town hall in Asheville, NC. “I’m a veteran & you don’t give a fuck about me. You don’t get to do this to us!” Edwards orders veteran to be thrown out. We’re approaching a tipping point now. Anger across the country is going to boil over soon.

They called him Sleepy Joe because we could sleep at night.

Gawd damn this is on point. Wake up or get out of the way Dem fossils.

Son: Are we better off now? Dad: Well son, mom & dad have both lost their jobs. Our savings are gone, gas & grocery prices are up. We did, however, save you from drag queen story time. Son: What's that? Dad: A mythical thing they said was happening in your school, which we can't afford anymore.
