RIP Barney Frank. Courageous and wicked smart to the end. Your absence is felt and your once larger than life presence even more. Thank you for your service good sir.

The one thing we knew before we even opened the article is that the shooter was male. What if the opposite was true? That the shooter was always female? What conversations would we be having? What would we do to address the fact that the vast majority of violent crime was committed by one gender.

To ICE - May you never know one second of peace. May you be abandoned by all who love you and all you love. May your days be spent in soul crushing self-loathing and your nights in a delirium of terror. May you be driven mad by your own cruelty. And, may you live a very very long life.

I think we need to just say this. Elon Musk murdered by proxy when he abruptly ended USAID funding and resources. He is directly responsible for the death and misery of thousands. He is a cold hearted murderer, lacking in the essentials of what it is to be human.

Got this email from Facebook today. I torpedoed my account back in February. Interesting that they are going to accuse me of violating community standards. So that's what they call it when you decide they are a loathsome and vile company and you stop buying the shit they are selling?

"Kolobok" is a small, round, yellow, bread-like being who is boastful and eventually eaten by a fox. It is a character from Russian fairy tales and was just used to describe our president. It is a perfect description of the boastful, shapeless, pale being currently

When Trump opens his mouth, this is what he is doing. When Steven Miller opens his mouth, this is what he is doing. When Charlie Kirk opened his mouth, this is what he was doing. For members of the marginalized communities they dehumanize, it is truly terrifying.

We can condemn political violence and this hideous murder while also condemning Charlie Kirk for the rotten, vile hatred he fomented.
