So now they will be arresting parents as they drop their kids off at school. Probably in front of the kids and the entire student body. Oh, that'll go well, won't it? And THEN what?? www.chalkbeat.org/2025/01/21/t...

See the link below for a great story about John Lennon from my friend Laurie. It's today's "Great Read" at the NY Times, went live online today. The link below is a gift link so you won't have to worry about the paywall. It's a cool story!

Some things you can do to be proactive in the face of fascism: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

When the Anti-Defamation League says that a Nazi salute by a fucking Nazi is "an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge," you start to realize that there's absolutely NO ONE who can help you and you'll need to do it yourself.

I'm a guest at a brand-new Beatles festival in Kinsale, Ireland at the end of the month! If you are in Ireland or can get there, there's a lot of great stuff planned! You don't want to miss this! Website with info below... www.kinsalebeatlesfest.com

"Horrible place," eh? Then why does he want to be President of it? He's such a fu*king piece of steaming sh*t. Fu*k you, Fu*kface. www.rawstory.com/trump-americ...

Yeah, I know it's a Hanukkah song. But the lyrics are timeless and don't really have a season. And we have to preserve the light no matter what -- ESPECIALLY now. The lyrics are in the video. In loving memory of Peter Yarrow. May his memory be a blessing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cxK...

He is such a goddamn piece of narcissistic shit. But he won't disappoint us -- the speech he will give that day will likely mention every grievance he has and then some, and I'm sure one of them will be about the flags. It's going to make his 2017 "American carnage" crap look tame by comparison.

Felon, sexual abuser, conman, traitor Trump should be in prison for what he did, not being inaugurated. So, the fact that the slippery, tomato-sauce-stained son-of-bitch is whining about flags being flown in memorial of a true public servant like Jimmy Carter is making my blood boil.

Let’s hope there are a lot of judges like this guy…

I played tourist in my hometown today…

This. And they have the nerve to call us intolerant. Maybe so —we don’t have to “tolerate” them!! Proud to be “intolerant” of the intolerable!

There is no "war on Christmas." And no matter what you celebrate (or don't celebrate) -- Happy Holidays to all!

This. All of this.

They say this -- but of course, what it really means is they will chip away at actual science through fear, and eventually they will outlaw all vaccines. They want us stupid, sick and eventually dead. That is the goal.

Fu*king seriously??? Why, because he pretends to be “saving babies?” Kiss my ass…

Fu*k the sanewashing…CNN can go fu*k themselves…

We used to live right around the corner from Virginia O'Hanlon's house. There's a historic marker on the building now. www.westsiderag.com/2024/12/23/f...

My husband's (@jamesryan.bsky.social) novel is on sale now! It's only for download right now -- there will be an update when hard copies are available. Happy Holidays! goldenstorylinebooks.com/statues-to-s...

This would effectively make Putin the Speaker. And as I've seen others wondering, how could a foreign born a$$hole be two heartbeats from the Presidency when a foreign born person cannot be President? This is all about "owning the libs" and nothing at all about governing...

One of the very best Christmas songs, IMHO. My son learned to play it on piano and sang it for a recital years ago. Very sadly, the words are still timely. I wish everyone a "hopeful Christmas and a brave New Year." I think we are going to have to be very brave. www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

Guess where we are?!?

The photo below was taken in Eisenhower Park, East Meadow, NY on December 14, 1980. My friend Laura and I could not get into Manhattan for the vigil for John Lennon so we went to one on LI. The picture appeared on the front page of the Long Island newspaper, Newsday, the following morning.

We need to be very worried about this…

We are so fu*ked… 🤬
