My most listened to song of 2025 is the same as 2024: Bobby Darin's 'Splish Splash'. To be more specific, it's my daughter's favorite bath time song.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.
Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

Once again, it’s weird that our media conducts interviews with Muppets as if they are autonomous individuals. Also, my lawn is something you should get off

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.
Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.
A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.
We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

Calvin and Hobbes is one of a handful of pieces of art that I sort of expected to leave behind when I grew into adulthood but instead continue to point at in increasingly desperate ways to beg people to increase their humanity
Happy 40th birthday to Bill Waterson’s ‘Calvin and Hobbes’. A work of consummate, stubborn, human, and more-than-human art.

like i say every few weeks (annoying all my followers), in a crisis like this, people are scared, and they are looking for leaders they can trust — people who they think will fight for them, and defend them when it gets bad.
now think about the message democrats sent today.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
