To quote Molly Ivins, "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."

I ordered a shower speaker to listen to podcasts the only time I think I will. Any recommendations? I'll only get through a couple a week, so specific episodes appreciated.

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

Starting April 1st (not an April Fool's joke), Medicare will no longer reimburse for telehealth phone or video visits, forcing seniors and disabled people to travel.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

“The Maryland National Guard must decline events which celebrates individuals based all or in part on immutable characteristics,” the memo said. Douglass was an abolitionist, suffragist, orator and author. That’s what we celebrate him. Let’s be clear: This bars celebrating him because he was Black.

Clearly, I wasn't commenting on safety or handling of eggs or chickens or anything. I was just responding to Dr. Gail Hansen's "dead birds don't lay eggs" comment that it wasn't comforting. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/w...

We're supposed to feel better that chickens infected with bird flu will die before they lay infected eggs. Yes, the deadliness of the illness is a great comfort. 😭

Elon Musk is committing a lot of felonies. He belongs in jail, and so do his criminal associates. He may not comprehend that. And if and when he does it may make him more reckless. No assumptions about where we go from here.
