I've gained some weight, mostly in the middle. I'm wearing my usual v-neck sweater but over a button down shirt that must be 2 sizes too small, it feels like a girdle. But I like it. It's like being hugged all day by someone you don't have to talk to

DEMOCRACY DEFENDERS: Are there big corporations enabling Ice or the Trump administration that can be targeted/hurt financially by a boycott—withholding purchases from their specific stores this Christmas season?

A fragile line between human and beast emerges as I watch a table full of adults continually, yet nonchalantly, swat flies as they eat.

Seldom scene artistic courage these days. This type of uncompromising flex can b incredibly powerful and if it lessens the collective fear of other creators just a touch, that's where movements gain momentum. I will confess, the moment his glistening tiny reed of a penis appeared gave me great hope.

I'm at a cafe wearing headphones and I suddenly sneeze and look up, meeting eyes with a guy across the way and I softly say thanks/nod thinking maybe he said god bless you and then he subtly shakes his head no -- like he didn't say it. That just happened. I shrugged back and life continues on.

The woman working the register asked me if I wanted a side of tomatoes or home fries with my eggs and I said, "how about a side of none of your business" and the cafe line erupted into laughter.* *All true except for me saying that or anyone else being in line.

Day after the Women's March, for reference, the Times went with a big photo and multiple small ones and had that take up most of the "above-the-fold" area.
New York Times front page, January 22, 2017. The top headline reads "DEFIANT YET JUBILANT VOICES FLOOD U.S. CITIES." The lead photo is a group of protesters, mostly in pink hat, with a big red sign of a female gender symbol with a raised fist in the middle of the circle at the center. Other smaller photos from marches across the U.S. sit in the lower-middle part of the page.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

He's led by his bloodlust. He will defy everything to exact revenge. It will build slowly but eventually he will disappear people and politicians, who we are all very familiar with, and when there is protest his refrain will be: WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? We need to have an answer to that.

Enough with the anti-semitism claims at college campuses where students are just exercising their freedom of speech rights. There are two big fucking nazi sympathizers in the whitehouse — can we focus on that?

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
