You know those moments when you want to scream & throw your device out the window due to the daily dose of chaos/madness? Besides “take a break from media,” what is your favorite or most effective quick relief go-to?

We need to stop calling everything an “Epstein distraction.” That’s not reality. This administration does harmful things for real...varied reasons. Right now, a U.S. citizen being shot by ICE in Minneapolis is an urgent crisis that deserves attention. It is clearly the priority.

US foreign policy is like “if you kill civilians we will bomb you and kill civilians” *kills own civilians*

Friend sent this from Indianapolis - saying “there were tons of people” lining this busy street on a cold and rainy day. Not sure how far it went, but well done, Indy!

In rare moments of evening respite, I am devouring Caleb Carr’s The Alienist (after “meaning to” for 2 years). In this f’king chaos, we all need something. Anything. What is yours?

President Obama couldn’t create a healthcare program without full scale condemnation.

President Biden couldn’t forgive student debt without calls for him to be prosecuted.

The orange felon covers up child sex crimes and bombs other countries and republicans are pleased.

Yes indeed. MAGA values are amazing. Where do all of these people work, that they can behave like this?

Think about how backwards that is - more people are employed to block us from getting medical care than actually delivering it.

They found billions for foreign deals but not for your healthcare.

Hold them accountable. Flood the lines!

For my Okie friends.
If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble!

It's weird how Tylenol caused autism (first diagnosed in 1943) before it was even invented (1955). What a clever drug.

As an enraged parent of a brilliant neurodiverse kid, I proudly say to all of those spewing this Tylenol bullshit make-believe speak: fuck you.

Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe.

And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

For the first time in 4 years, unemployed workers outnumber available jobs.
 
The U.S. economy actually lost 13,000 jobs in June, the first negative jobs month in nearly 5 years.
