One of the first things I am going to do in the new year is apply for a job seeker visa in at least one European country. I can't imagine what this country will look like after three more years of...this.

"Republicans are actively making things worse. We will address the effects of Republican policy...but we're not going to actively make things better."
The Trump administration’s attacks on the Forest Service are increasing the risk of wildfires.
We will keep fighting to make sure our firefighters have the resources they need to protect themselves and keep us safe.

Pretty sure Christmas music (and modern church music in general) was one of the the inner rings' punishments in early drafts of Dante's Inferno. People who can tolerate it are amazing and I envy their strength, while people with Christmas favorites are terrifying.
What is your favorite "Christian" Christmas song and what is your favorite "Secular" Christmas song?
I will probably always adore "O Come All Ye Faithful" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" for Christian.
And "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" for secular.

Watching an old hockey fight between most of the 1983 North Stars and Blackhawks on YouTube tonight makes me miss living in section 8 even less than I already did. Half of those goons, probably, played for Warroad or Roseau back in the day.

Teenagers are “too young” to make decisions on gender affirming care.
They’re “too young to vote”.
They’re too young to drink.
But they’re not too young to be sex trafficked and raped by Epstein and all his rich pals?
Be serious please.

Not gonna lie, I think I would rather be one of the prisoners in the Stanford prison experiment than your average empathetic American. At least the prison experiment was able to be stopped.

I'm thinking about the bullshit that the state party pulled with the Minneapolis mayor endorsement, the bullshit the state party has pulled with the feminist caucus, and now the bullshit being pulled by national conservative Democrats, and the best I can come up with is "why bother."

TACO Trump is so incompetent that his "tough on crime" stance in DC and elsewhere is only going to create mass support for defunding and abolishing the police.
What a fucking pathetic, small-handed loser.
