Old mediocre atheist writer with a fierce love of nature, science, astronomy, and prose. (Yes there’s overlap there.) Keeps cats in nip by writing, designing, and editing interpretive signs and conservation-related tidbits.

30 September 1978, the soft rock band Exile kicked off a massive four-week run at #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 with their breakout pop smash "Kiss You All Over". The track had been written by Chinn and Chapman and also made No 1 in 3 other countries. #Exile

Never forget, this is Trump’s War Of Choice. He chose to do this to our country. He chose to send our troops into battle. He and his family are making BILLIONS of dollars off of this war…

If this is how they define the GOP—if any disagreement with Trump means you’re against the party—then perhaps you should take them at their word. And on November 3, you can tell every nominee of the Trump party what you think of them.

If holding Trump accountable makes you an enemy of the GOP, the party has told you everything you need to know.

No sympathy for these people. Warnings were issued. Project 2025 was publicly available. Instead of accepting factual reality, they once again believed the world's most obvious con-man and saddled us with this nightmare. And they'll continue to vote for Republicans anyway.

When authoritarians get backed into a corner, they lash out and resort to fear-mongering. This is why Trump is running ominous taxpayer funded ads. But we’re going to organize our friends and neighbors, turn out to vote in November, and deliver a resounding blue wave. Spread the word.

With regard to the overt and jaw-dropping use of public money to manufacture and broadcast Trump politicals ads, I'm just spitballing here, but maybe, perhaps, if the U.S. Supreme Court didn't give the president blanket immunity from prosecution for crimes he wouldn't feel so comfortable criming.

It's one thing to wheel out Matt Gaetz to scream "trans" loudly as a distraction from these disastrous years of war and misrule. That's an established trope. But to have Tuberville, in all his bespittled glory, inveighing against Furries as the new frontier in GOP electoral distraction. Well, damn.

Genuinely, when you send someone to the United States Senate as submoronic, gibbering and ridiculous as Tommy Tuberville, your statehood should be suspended. At this point there should be 49 United States and the Alabama Territory. Followed by a second, more committed attempt at Reconstruction.

To be entirely fair, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is in fact representative of an American minority. He's an ignorant crank pretending to know things he doesn't and acting upon such to harm others. Which is to say, he is one of those Making America Great Again folk. As they use the term, this is DEI.
