FASCIST THEOCRACY. He nailed it.

My dog has a digestive system like a water main. Never gets clogged. One time, he ate a page from a book, and I could READ the bits of page that came out the other end.

Just had an excellent interview with @advocate.com, and I really think this one is worth your time to read.

If you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds. We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

I swear, I want to post about other things, but @effinbirds.com is just crushing it this month.

In 2019, RFK, Jr went to Samoa to discourage people from taking the measles vaccine Vaccination rates for kids plummeted 5 months later, Samoa had a measles outbreak 5,000 people got sick 83 died The measles isn’t coming for RFK But he’s making damn sure it’s coming for every American instead

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

My effin’ birds calendar is a daily source of much-needed hilarity. @effinbirds.com

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road. NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Kids/teens: You’ve probably figured out by now that adults, including your parents, have NO idea what they’re doing. They can be hateful and controlling. If someone tries to tell you how to live your life, smile and yes them; if you can, tell them to FUCK OFF. Your heart and mind are your own!!

Got a letter from the Social Security Administration today that reminded me to keep my information safe and to never share my password. Won’t stop Elon’s crew, but hey good looking out.

"working to swiftly rectify the situation..." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

So. Effing. Stupid.

Another word for "regulation" is... "consumer protection" "environmental protection" "Regulation" means your milk is safe. "Regulation" means toys that harm your babies are removed from the shelves. "Regulation" means chemical companies can't dump waste in your river.

NEW non-clarifying clarifications about Elon Musk's employee status filed just now in a NM-led lawsuit: —Musk, as a presidential senior adviser, "has no actual or formal authority to make government decisions himself." He is also not DOGE's administrator. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Aside from the whole dismantling of democracy thing, looks like the first 100 days are very much about payback for anyone who crossed him.

these guys are the biggest babies in the world

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Is Elon ok? Somebody check on him.

OMG please just die already, preferably, on the toilet.

the rage I felt reading this as the parent of a disabled 14yo

Another way the dictatorship might kill you. This is from a friend who is a retired air traffic controller.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

Yeah, so that large pizza I ate the other day, it reappeared, and it was NOT happy. The bill comes due, my friends. It comes due.

I saw a video of known alcoholic Pete Hegseth drinking multiple scotches in the middle of a televised presser and started laughing so hard I began coughing as I believe we're less than 2 weeks removed from him promising never to drink a single time as Secretary of Defense and nothing matters anymore

I have known love and safety and laughs and wonder with the same woman for 33 years. Pretty freaking cool, right? Happy Valentine’s Day

Couldn’t cope with today’s tidal wave of cataclysmic bullshit, so I ate an entire pizza.

Putting ALL of my money in ivermectin, y’all.

Your Daily Affirmation: I nurture the fire of a slow burning anger. A firewall of good cheer shields my people and preserves my calm, but I'm ready to burn this motherfudger down if that's what's called for. My cause is true, my waffles are crispy. I am not afraid.

Couldn’t love them more if I tried.

Back from an epic work gathering in Philadelphia, where I discovered Sweet Nina’s banana pudding. One of the best desserts I’ve ever had.

Go Eagles!

Super teams normally don’t work, but Dave Roberts does a great job meshing the Dodgers’ elite talents. I’ll be rooting for them this year. dodgerblue.com/dave-roberts...

Savoring my last slice of birthday cake, a sublime Italian crumb cake from L’arte Della Pasticceria.

51 today. I need nothing. I want nothing. FREE. Feels amazing.

Turns out I have feelings for me.

Charlie Brown’d on some black ice. Bonked my head pretty good, but no concussion symptoms. Yet.
