I’m proud of the work I did as an AUSA, and I say this with complete sincerity: if you’re an AUSA, and a decent person, who cares about your oath, get out. Get out now without destroying your reputation. A DoJ run to Trumpist specifications is corrupt and incompetent. The stink will stick on you.

So you’re angry and frustrated, wondering what you can do to push back on the creeping fascism in our country… here are some ideas: 1. Vote. If there are elections where you are, it is essential that you vote.

Currently on vacation in the Caribbean. If I’m somehow smote to death by Elon’s space junk, please note that my last words were “Fuck that ketamine-addled maniac, and his little orange lapdog, too.”

This is what tinpot dictators do, weaponizing the legal process against their perceived "enemies". I hope that not only is this meritless lawsuit summarily dismissed, but Trump's lawyers are heavily sanctioned.

Somehow, i just realized that @kattybkay.bsky.social and @scaramucci.bsky.social are here. Make your own decisions, but I enjoy the hell out of their podcast and think that they're well worth following.

As an unrepentant GenX'er, I'm super-excited that both @deesnider.bsky.social and @flavorflav.bsky.social are on this platform. Let the good, and socially conscious, times roll.

Been a long day of work. No real access to news. Get home, hop online to see what all happened: "Trump nominates Matt Gaetz for AG, Tulsi Gabbard for DNI." Welp, I think that's all my mental health can take for one day. Time to log back off and go hide under the blankets.

Apparently, I'm in a burn-it-all-down mood. Unsubscribed from the WaPo, Amazon Prime, and nuked my twitter account. Eat the rich.

Absolutely gutted by the passing of Shane MacGowan. A brilliant songwriter, a poet, a drunk. To paraphrase George Best: I spent a lot of my life listening to the Pogues. The rest I just squandered.
