This is why I talk about the aristocracy being immortal and mutable. It's always in the human bloodstream. It wakes up every day trying to win, and we need to wake up every day trying to destroy it. There is no finish line.

Rather than a resistance, the concept of an opposition is more comprehensive and durable. It recognizes that there are no time limits to the effort. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

Trans people never stole the entire Social Security database and put every American at risk by uploading their personal information to an unsecure server.

But Trump and Elon Musk sure did.

If you are a SAG member can I strongly recommend you consider electing Samwise MF'n Gamgee as your next president. Because Goonies never say AI!

Or maybe it's the new CDC director saying misinformation is dangerous after the above incident but refusing to say her boss was spreading the misinformation.

How about RFK Jr demonizing vaccines then ignoring that a man convinced that he had been harmed by vaccines just tried to murder a bunch of his employees via mass shooting.

I may have gone a little overboard with the grill today. I smoked 5 lb of homemade andouille sausage, 5 lb of beef ribs, grilled, 2 lb worth of pork belly and a pound of chicken. And a few veggies just to round things out. The world is on fire, I might as well cook things over it.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

I know I'm late to the party but I finally saw Sinners and I just need anything Ryan Coogler wants to do to be automatically greenlit from here on out.

In honor of May the 4th and our Space Mom, Carrie Fisher, I repost my 15 message minutes of Fame when my friend mentioned me in his story of being glittered by Carrie at Dragoncon.

I got to meet her one year I was working backstage security at DragonCon here in Atlanta. I was standing around backstage while the room was being filled, checking in on our VIPs when Carrie came in with her crew. I knew one of her guest escorts so I said hi to him. He introduced me to Carrie and I told her how wonderful it was to meet her. She shook my hand and looked intently at my face. Then she pulled out a make-up case and a brush and started brushing something on to the left side of my face. I looked at Fritz, her escort, and he said, “She’s been doing this all day.” Carrie grabbed my chin and turned my face back to her. She then finished COVERING the left side of my face with glitter, cocked her head to take a more critical view of her work, nodded, and went on to her next appearance. She never spoke to me the entire time but beeped my nose as she walked away.

I kept running into other people on the crew that day who had glitter dust on their faces. Everyone just smiled and said, “Oh, you ran into Carrie, too.”

Super nice lady. She will definitely be missed.
