With a measles outbreak growing in West Texas, and cases popping up across the country, experts say vaccination is your best protection. And it's not just for kids. Some adults may need a booster.

I don’t have kids. I just care about the world and the people who live in it. It’s never wrong to do the right thing.

When Washington was offered unlimited power, he declined it and set the standard. Would Trump have made the same choice?

About 10 years ago I bought a bottle of Laphroaig quarter cask whisky and I only drink it on my birthday. 1 glass. In quiet solitude, though tonight it will be while playing DnD.

Now James Bond is owned by Amazon, he's going to be made to do two missions in the time it would take to do one, and his Aston Martin will be fitted with a bespoke receptacle for him to piss in to avoid stopping while in pursuit of the bad guys.

Most resistance occurs behind closed doors, quietly, without fanfare. Just because we aren't seeing or hearing Senate leaders resisting Trump, doesn't mean they aren't talking to Republicans about where their redlines are regarding Trump. But no one is coming to save us. We save ourselves.

Don’t worry, guys. They’re just trolling us—just like Trump was “trolling” when he claimed he won after the 2020 election and just like he’s floating the idea of a third term in recent weeks. Nothing to see here, right? Carry on.

Here’s what I need from Democrats; get in the fucking way. Stand in front of those who will hurt others. We can say “constitutional crisis” all day long, but you have to get in front of them. Refuse to budge. Don’t back down.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

If Joe Biden showed up to the Daytona 500 while Kentucky faced devastating storms, he would have been crucified. In times like these, Presidents shouldn’t be driving around a race car track while people were living under emergency declarations. It's that simple.

I think folks think you can talk to a Trump-voter long enough and they will change. Wrong. Their voting habits will change when they are impacted and hurt by Trump policies...maybe. There's no reason to spend a lot of your time on them. Organize. March. Boycott. Write. Call. And then rest.

Resistance isn't prevention. It is friction. It can be a delayed response, a lost piece of paper, a wrong number, or an intentional mistake. It can also be malicious compliance.

A 24-year-old transgender man from Minnesota who had been missing since December was subjected to violence and torture before his body was found last week in a field in New York, the authorities said. Five people were arrested in connection with his death and charged with murder, the police said.

One of the reasons I love the cover of the first issue of CAPTAIN AMERICA (on news stands in December of 1940 with a cover date of March 1941) is that Jack Kirby and Joe Simon could see, a year ahead of Pearl Harbor, that fascism would be the enemy. Because they were paying attention.
