Started reading again. Decided to shift focus from real life events to more fiction. Opened this gem and I am now 14 chapters in, thoroughly engrossed. Great for my fellow mystery thriller/horror fans. ❤️

I’m about to show how young I am. The first election I remember even remotely caring about (despite being in the 1st grade lol) was George W. and John Kerry. Now, at 27, having voted in the past three elections, I have never stopped thinking, “How the f*ck did we get here?”

I‘ve tried to avoid news articles lately, but correct me if I’m wrong. How does it make a lick of sense to “cut federal spending… via firing people by the thousands? Yet MAGA wants to complain about folks being “lazy” for not getting/having a job. They HAD jobs, which 🍊 took without hesitation.

They’re just going to keep doing evil shit to “troll the libs” forever. They don’t care about the results. They merely hate you and that is all. They want you in prison. They want you dead. They will keep pushing for that future because it’s clear that Americans will do nothing to stop them.

Hilarious Donald “doesn’t want violent criminals” in the country. Sir, you’re the one who just let a bunch of them OUT? 💀 So far, we got: >gun charge within 24 hours of pardon/release >shot during DUI check for resisting arrest >soliciting a minor under age 17 >prison sentence for DUI manslaughter

Dear price of eggs Trump voters, Not only aren’t they any cheaper, there’s an actual shortage because of the raging Bird Flu we’re not getting any public information about because the food safety & public health agencies responsible for that shit have basically been shut down. Bravo.

My wife and I are watching Slasher - this one character just found his lady friend dead, he’s bursting into tears. My wife starts laughing. “Are you laughing at a person crying again?” “Yes.”

Trump is mad because he realized yesterday that he got told off by a woman who he assumed was not powerful. Clergy. Soft voice. Woman. Oh but power comes in many forms. Disarming these folks is very effective. Love to see it.

Update: my car was found, but it needs repairs and on top of that, we’re behind on rent. It’s been a real struggling to even process these last 24-48 hours. I got lucky, but I need some weight off my shoulders to feel normal again. If you’re able, my cashapp is $eancoffeebean or DM for my Zelle. ❤️

Happy new year - car got stolen this morning. 🫠 I am so exhausted. On the bright side, yesterday I got a full time job offer with benefits at the firm. But the emotional whiplash feels unfair.

The guy in charge of the "government efficiency" panel thing doesn't understand how the House allocates funds They've all decided there is some other mysterious way to do this that is "better", yet no one has ever done it or made it work 🤷‍♂️

Worth noting that McConnell refusing to whip votes to convict Trump at his impeachment trial (or vote himself to convict) is why we’re in this position right now. If McConnell is looking for the person at fault, he might want to consult a mirror.

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because: Don Jr was born in 1977 Ivanka was born in 1981 Eric was born in 1984 Ivana became a US citizen in 1988. Barron was born in March 2006 Melania became a US citizen in July 2006. Trump’s entire family would be deported.

Howdy Bluesky! It’s strange I don’t feel the same compulsive need to check in here as I did “the other place”. But if y’all know me from there, or follow me now, let me introduce you to one of my side hobbies: book nook/diy kits. Enjoy the tiny dinosaurs. 🦕 More to come.

Social Media etiquette: How to avoid coming across as a turd in your replies "Actually..." - do not mansplain. Or womansplain. Avoid all splaining. "There, I fixed it for you..." - If I wanted it fixed, I'd do it myself. "Raise your..." - fuck off. "I think you meant..." - seriously, fuck off.

Republicans lost their minds when Michelle Obama pushed for healthier school lunches—but now they’re suddenly all-in on clean eating because the new face of it is a former heroin addict whose biggest claim to fame was having so many affairs in one year it drove his wife to suicide. What changed? 🤔

This morning I dragged myself out of bed at 3:00 to head to the West End Bridge in hopes of capturing the moon over PPG Place and the Christmas tree at the Point in #Pittsburgh. Luckily the clouds stayed away for long enough to allow that to happen. Made for an amazing view.

So when are pro-lifers going to address the numerous damaging loopholes in CPS law that allow for abusive parents to take advantage of the system? …Or do those lives not count?

Since not a day goes by without someone saying I’m “just another big account that doesn’t say what to do.” I’ll once again say what I think you can do. 1) 30 states have local/state elections starting in Feb. Get involved/run. 2) Join a special issue group like civil rights, abortion or immigrant

The most dangerous person in women's spaces in Congress isn't Sarah McBride, it's actually Nancy Mace's staffer Sean Brislin, apparently, who it appears she hired shortly after he broke into a woman's house and slept in her bed. www.advocate.com/politics/nan...
