The lede is like something a soldier might have written decades after storming Omaha Beach, and having lived long enough to tell his grandchildren about how he somehow survived that fateful day.
For years, the first thing I did upon awakening was check Twitter to see if I had been canceled. After a quick name search to ensure that there was only the usual amount of frothing denunciation, I could get on with my day.

Required Reading from the awesome @evanhurst.substack.com (The Moral High Ground), especially this part:
(And yes, for the record, I am pissed at Talarico for listening to consultants with his recent hemming and hawing about transgender people. He needs to not do that, because first of all, I don’t believe he’s actually changed his mind or “moderated” one tinker’s damn on these issues — neither does his pastor — and the second you take the Christian fascists’ bait one time, they demand you take more and more of it. I have consistently addressed how we do not win by giving one inch to these motherfuckers. However, I also don’t think Ken Paxton would lift a finger to stop an LGBTQ+ holocaust. One of these two men will be the senator from Texas.)
