If you show up on my feed with naked or half-naked selfies, you're instantly airlocked off the ship. IDGAF how fabulous you think you are---save it for your grandkids' photo albums or something, but spare the rest of us from having to view your egos.

A lot of “we must start a war with the left” takes now replaced with coughing harrumphs once the shooter was identified.

I am officially single again. Men suck. I'm almost 70, and I give up. No more boyfriends/husbands/partners for me. The idea of having to spend years with someone else who is destined to break my fucking heart makes me want to vomit. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Note to self: You cannot make someone tell the truth, nor recognize their culpability and responsibilities for their wrong actions, if they don't want to tell the truth nor make an effort to understand their wrongs.

The political party who celebrated Paul Pelosi's assault, ignored Melissa Hortman's assassination, laughed at the attempt to kidnap Gov. Whitmer, and cheered as insurrectionists on Jan 6th attempted a violent coup of Congress want you to be ultra respectful about Charlie Kirk

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

One last thing before I go: I wouldn't put it past the Trump administration to have contracted Charlie Kirk's murder just so they can declare martial law, blame everyone on the Left, and enact violent retribution because of it. That's how low the world has become.

Charlie Kirk was murdered in Utah, a red state full of people who think guns are more important than the rights of women, POC, and children. But, yeah...blame this on those of us on the Left who think guns should be heavily regulated.

I wrote about what I think is a genuinely revealing document of elite depravity and impunity. It is shocking and sickening. But it's also a crucial moment. We're about to see what happens when conspiracy theorists actually get what they asked for but it turns out not to be what they want.

As a native Wisconsinite I feel I can fully support the good folks of the fine city of Chicago in their battle against Trump’s expensive and unneeded federal overreach, while simultaneously not caring for the Bears.

The multi-levels of intrigue and suspicion the press had to ladle on to Biden to make him seem dangerous and incompetent, for the offense of not bowing down to them. Trump bangs the bass drum of fascism down Main Street followed by his Gestapo and they STILL bend over backwards to see both sides.

This regime is doing to vaccines what it's already done to women's healthcare: denying us the choice of what to do with our own bodies. This was written by a personal friend, who is a physician.
Robert Kennedy is our current Secretary of Health and Human Services. Today during a congressional hearing he stated that MRNA vaccines pose a serious risks, including death, especially among young people. There may be a risk but not a serious one. I would like to explain how an mRNA vaccine works. Messenger RNA is what normally instructs cells to produce a specific protein. For instance, mRNA instructs your hair follicles to produce keratin so you can grow hair. This is a normal process. mRNA vaccines inject an artificially produced mRNA that gets incorporated into the cells and instructs them to produce a target protein such as the spike protein on the coronavirus. The immune system recognizes it as a foreign protein and forms antibodies against it. This, "Immunologic memory", resides in the body for many years. The protein and the mRNA are then destroyed by the body so all that remains is the immune system's memory of that foreign protein. If a coronavirus infects the body the immune system identifies the spike protein on the virus and destroys it. The potential side effects are infrequent and pale in comparison to the the benefit of immunity. 
Mr. Kennedy either chooses to ignore science, believes pseudoscience or doesn't understand science. I respect a person who chooses to not receive a vaccine regardless of how ill advised it might be. By the same token, based on the overwhelming evidence to support the widespread use of vaccines, the US government should make access to these vaccines easily available to the population and then let the individual decide whether to be vaccinated or not. For my part, as a physician, I have received every possible vaccine for which I have qualified. As I've said many times before, ignore science at your own risk.

I know a bit about Chicago, and Chicagoans. Grew up 45 mins. away from the city. Trump is going to be stunned and afraid when he tries to pull his ICE bullshit there. Trust me on this: JB is a fine man and a fine guv, but even he won't be able to stop the violence that's going to happen against ICE.

The whole point to Project 2025 is to create a nation of serfs and ultra-wealthy rulers, and to that end, the ultra-wealthy rulers and their accomplices are going to murder millions of Americans who are poor, weak, disabled, and unable to fight back. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Bernie Sanders will live in history as a True American Hero. He was never president. He never gained an enormous following. He's spent his life standing up for those who couldn't stand, speaking for those who couldn't speak, and fighting for those who couldn't fight. He is the best of us. Bless him❤️

Ya know...For all the screaming MAGA/Q-Anons did about a hoax pizza parlor child trafficking ring run by Democrats, you'd think that when a REAL case of child trafficking that has REAL criminal suspects and REAL facts to support their crimes pops up, they'd get behind seeking justice. But, Nooooooo!

I planted a seed in a pot, and have spent the last 7 days waiting for it to sprout. Earlier this afternoon, I spotted the tiniest glimmer of pale green peeking out of a clump of dirt, and nearly sang out of happiness. After my nap, I walked into the kitchen and found the pot on the floor.
