I've opened up a Ko-Fi, to support my move to Seattle. After the house burned down, every penny's been on extremely thin margins. The job market is disastrous here, healthcare is a joke, family's been hurtful, and the on-and-off homelessness nearly killed me. Time to go. ko-fi.com/sirocyl/goal...

It’s time for electoral reform in this country. When the current system of representative democracy was designed they made sure anyone could ride a reasonable distance on horseback to reach a local representative and challenge them to a duel. Alas, times have changed and we need modern solutions.

First they came for the trans folks, And I told them to enjoy the camps because they had been rude to me. Next they came for the socialists, And I told them to enjoy the camps because they had critiqued my party. And when they came for me, There was nobody left to wish me a fun time in the camps.

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified" This is a brazenly racist and sexist lawsuit.

📌I was the managing editor at Stars and Stripes and can tell you that Pete Hegseth is the first SecDef I am aware of to be openly booed by military families on a military base. 📌This is the most significant pushback I have seen to this administration's racist, hostile initiatives.
