Joint Economic Committee says the average household is out an extra $4,200 under this administration. Ground beef is over $7 a pound and coffee is past $9. Groceries alone added $310. The throne is padded with your receipt. #RepublicanAffordabilityCrisis

I realize civility is a quaint value belonging to a departed past, but this level of disrespect to a senator—any senator—only proclaims to the world what a massive prick the current Secy of the Treasury is. Turns out he has no more regard for an elected official than he does for the American people.

Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.

"This policy...has left untold numbers of disenfranchised voters in its wake and inflicted injuries to the Plaintiffs' privacy," the court wrote.

This goes against the intuitions of a lot of older people who were socialized into the party alignment of the 1970s-1980s-1990s. But you could make a case that the Trump second term is the most directlyand outwardly anti-Christian presidency in American history.

Sending ICE and federal agents to polling places is blatantly illegal, but that’s never stopped Trump before. Our new zine (illustrated by acclaimed comic book artist @gregpak.net) provides a pocket-sized guide on what to do if you see ICE at the polls: indivisible.org/wp-content/u...

WHAT IF YOU SEE ICE AT THE POLLS?
(Don't worry!
Read on for the plan!)

If you see ICE or
have any other trouble when you vote, call

• A real person will help you and get it on the record.
• Document everything on video, safely.
• Use the Hands Off Our Vote toolkit. We have a plan!
linktr.ee/wewillvote

If you're stopped by law enforcement...
• Prioritize staying safe. Remain calm, don't resist. Keep your hands visible.
• Document everything. Record on your phone or ask a bystander to do it.
• Get the agent's badge number, name, and their agency.
• If detained, ask for a lawyer, remain silent, and do not sign anything.
• To invoke your rights sayI want to remain silent" and "I want to speak with a lawyer."
• The Constitution protects your rights no matter your immigration status.
This is educational only, not legal advice. If you need legal advice, consult an attorney.

There’s no “just move forward” from this. Accountability and major reforms are required. Abolishing ICE is a given.

Screenshot of a list citing human rights organizations such as Amnesty International identifying four countries that have recently or historically carried out public executions: Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, and Saudi Arabia. The text describes public hangings in Iran, executions under Taliban rule in Afghanistan, reported public executions in North Korea, and Saudi Arabia’s historical use of public beheadings.

This by Courtney Maum is where I am too. I am grateful to her for the words...

For me, the subject of AI detection is an ouroboros. I’ll speak only for myself, here is my opinion. I didn’t ask for artificial intelligence. It’s not something I need, it is not something I desire. And yet, it barged its way into my life and stole all of my books. All of them. Stole them. Trained off of them. Did not compensate me for this theft. So now, AI can write a book like me, because it stole my own work and learned my breed of humor and satire. So if someone runs an AI text detector on my creative output, it will probably “test positive” why? Because AI is a contaminant that has embedded itself into my work by stealing it and using my own work to perpetuate itself. It will test for itself and find AI there because it AI is a virus that has contaminated the DNA of my current and future writing—a form of intellectual rape. A kind of colonization. A raging plague that some gatekeepers are opening the door for.

If you ask me what I’m currently working on, the answer is nothing book-length. I’m not going to publish a new book in this current landscape. That’s a stance of privilege, I recognize that. And I can’t hold this stance forever, I can hold it as long as I have savings from my last book.

This current literary climate isn’t acceptable. It is not acceptable to have a thing thrust upon us that takes absolutely everything, and then be forced to prove that we are not the thieves.
