Thank you to everyone who stood with me over the years. It’s been a scary journey but I have always been grounded in my work and ability to provide exemplary service to my constituents. Trump and his administration have been after me since I arrived in Congress.

“The contradictory nature of the hobo, a character without home or possessions who embodied good-natured liberty and gap-toothed joi de vivre, gave rise to a persistent sense of envy.” —@calfraser.bsky.social

American lore about hoboes has sugared over the economic and environmental forces that drove people from their homes and onto the rails and roads in the first place, as a new history lays out.

‘This guy is going to destroy civilization as we know it, and the earth, and all because of these people who don't have any idea why they're alive.’ - Michael Shannon in 2016 predicting the hell we’re in now 10 years later www.rogerebert.com/interviews/y...
Can you make sense of any of that for me? How Trump was elected?
Yeah, I'll tell you how to make sense of it: This country's filled with ignorant jackasses. The big red dildo running through the middle of our country needs to be annexed to be its own country of moronic assholes. You can call it the United States of Moronic Fucking Assholes.
Do you think those assholes started off that way, or that people are inherently good and lost?
I don't know how people got so goddamn stupid. But it's really weird, because it's like the last eight years, now it feels like a lie.
Like, this is has been festering underneath the whole time.
Racists, sexists. And a lot of these people, they don't know why the fuck they're alive. They know it. They're doing drugs, fucking killing themselves. Because they're like, 'Why the fuck am I alive? I can't get a job, I don't know anything about anything, I have no curiosity for life or the world. So this Trump thing is like getting a box of firecrackers, or something.
It's like, 'Well, this will be fun for a little while, this'll kill some time.' Because, y'know, the jackass will be amusing on television, stay stupid shit. Make everybody clap. Hillary would have been too boring, I suppose. It's the worst thing that's ever happened. It's the worst. This guy is going to destroy civilization as we know it, and the earth, and all because of these people who don't have any idea why they re alive.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Just finished reading Murderland by Caroline Frasier. Incredibly well written and harrowing story. The curse in the final chapter brought me to tears. "Unmelt the slag. Unbreak the rock. Unbreath the air. Now and forever, let it all be over."

A native forest completely choked and dying from infestation by rhododendron. I still hear some say that the invasive species problem is "exaggerated", that "it's all just nature". They're very wrong. Invasives are a *human* impact, and one of the top causes of biodiversity loss on Earth.
