A.I. and corporate lingo are dragging language ynto drugged realmes of vague, airy, plastic nothingnesse: glitz and hyperbole wythout meaning. Language must have fur and clawes, make the floorboardes creake and leave wet dirtye footprintes. Wordes are rayne and fyre and stone. Wielde them. Save us.

So ICE agents are getting fired before their probationary periods are up and are having to repay the $50,000 signing bonus. I love this for them.

on two occasions I have run into a dude who went with the "I identify as a woman" thing because he thinks its really funny and my learning has been that if you take his word for it and start calling him a woman he stops finding it funny in about 1 second and starts getting upset & so you don't stop

Imagine if you will, a large swath of the American public supporting a convicted criminal who has a track record of personal vendettas dictating his daily agenda as President and then also going to church and pretending to be a decent human being. That’s called the Hypocrisy Zone

I was raised to not speak ill of the dead. In therapy, I learned that speaking honestly about the harm done is more important than protecting the dead. Lindsey Graham caused more harm to this state than anything else in my lifetime. His legacy is hatred and brutality. Now, SC can move forward.
Lindsey Graham, warmonger, dead at 71

The only thing I'll remember about Lindsey Graham is his mistreatment of Dr Christine Blasey Ford. Acting apoplectic at nonsensical details because he knew the most powerful misogynist in the world was watching him. I've never seen a man debase and humiliate himself so much.

Silence is never neutral. When you choose silence, you aren't staying out of the fray; you’re choosing a side. White silence shields the status quo, protecting comfort while harm accelerates. By leaving racism unchallenged, silence doesn't just watch; it validates. It makes injustice the norm.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

Tell me how ICE are not domestic terrorists if they instill fear, anger, anxiety, and terror wherever they go. Defunding ice isn’t far enough. Abolishing ICE altogether is the only answer we should accept.
