Sorry is sympathizing

Apologizing is accepting responsibly for something.

I sympathized with potential misunderstanding

Tonight in “war ravaged” Portland… a frog brigade standing guard outside the ICE facility.

Trump says there’s “nowhere worse than Portland”… and the frogs magically multiply.

They’re showing that he’s not only a liar, but Portland is still safe, still weird and still full of people resisting.

Three people in frog costumes stand outside the Portland ice facility at night. They’re holding a sign that says frog brigade

I write because I love writing. I love writing even when I'm struggling with a writing problem that is killing me. Finding a way through that problem is both intensely rewarding and also helps me become a better writer. There is no reason for me to ever outsource that.

Geez. Johnny Cash was cool, straight up. Period. Full stop. I mean, the man was on Columbo, what more are you asking for? Besides, just listen to his music. If that’s not cool enough for you, maybe you should reconsider your life’s choices

I am grateful our state pays for aides to work with my autistic son, especially since we've not yet found him a decent adult program. But the impenetrable paperwork for hiring those aides—& the oft-returned versions that then have to be re-submitted—is pure panic attack material. And is gatekeeping.

"30-year-old conservative lawyer and activist who is Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel, which deals with federal employee whistleblower complaints and discrimination" cancelled his colleague's hotel room so she would be forced to stay with him.
www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

In late July, Paul Ingrassia, the White House liaison for the Department of Homeland Security, arrived at a Ritz-Carlton in Orlando with a lower-ranking female colleague and others from their department. When the group reached the front desk, the woman learned she didn’t have a hotel room.

Ingrassia then informed her that she would be staying with him, according to five administration officials familiar with the episode. Eventually the woman discovered that Ingrassia had arranged ahead of time to have her hotel room canceled so she would have to stay with him, three of those officials said.
