Hi, I’m God.

And I’m extremely worried about planet Earth.

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

So if dinosaurs were often bird-like and birds can sing, what would a dinosaur’s song sound like?

I've heard that a whole bunch of creatures eventually evolve into crabs. Nature is healing.

You do realize we've never had presidents threaten to wipe blue OR red states off the map, and if you support a president who does whether their politics line up with yours or not—you're kind of a sh*tty human being and a lousy American, right?

I think if we can get quiet within ourselves and listen to our intuition and good judgement that will help us a lot
It would behoove everybody to think of this week as a declaration of war.

One thing to keep in mind: wars are not won by brute force alone, they're won by psy-ops & demoralizing our morale.

Please reasses information you read from the point of view: why does it benefit the enemy if I believe this?

Don't just check in with your trans friends. Check in with trans elders who might not be active in the community anymore. Check in on parents of trans kids.

I check in with my trans bonus mom daily, have done for some time. She's 77 and has mostly been abandoned.

All I’m saying is, if Pluto were orbiting Jupiter it would be the fifth most interesting moon of Jupiter.

I’m seeing lots of surprise about things happening the past few days.

There are a lot of descriptive words we might use here, but none should be surprising.

They wrote a whole book about it. We all encouraged people to read it.

This IS Project 2025.

Hey, friends—

Things are REALLY rough for political cartoonists right now. Their traditional clients are refusing to run their work. New clients can’t afford to pay them. A lot of political cartoonists are subsisting off patreons.

If you share a political cartoon, please credit the cartoonist.

BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs.

He just reversed all the cost caps that had been negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid -- over 120 MILLION Americans.

He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance.

He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.

I want to be clear about where we stand with the EO:

The battlefield is now revealed. We know the pieces on it and their plans. It doesn't mean its lost or immediate.

But Trump has fired his first shot.

Implementation will take time and challenges are sure to come. Stay strong, its a marathon.

Nature: I love diversity and never deal in strict binary.

Science: Yes. This is true. We have observed this about you for years.

MAGA: We voted to ignore you both and deny reality with legislation.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.
