The news is just awful. I’m sending virtual love and hugs to all those affected by all the horseshittery happening. And also posting this pic of my adorable retired racing greyhound in his frog jammies. Because we love frogs. 🐸 (He’d love you to read the alt text on his pic, too.)
This almost makes me want to try baking an apple pie.….
PIECRUST! A MANIFESTO!
I once wrote someone trying to impress a new love some piecrust instructions and thought I'd share them here:
The secret of good pie is: keep your heart warm but your butter cold.

Seriously. F*ck Susan Collins.
There are 50,000 food insecure children in Maine and 2 trans athletes. Every single candidate running for office who can drum up concern about the latter but has nothing to say about the former is telling on themselves. They don’t care about children. Only power. And they’ll hurt kids for it.
25 Nov 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- In unusual move, Sen Susan Collins (R-ME) signs petition for referendum on the 2026 ballot that would bar trans students from sports teams, locker-rooms and bathrooms. She's in a hotly contested election & this is pbly one way to increase Rep turnout.

All of what I've said about the Mamdani/Trump meeting notwithstanding, there's no actual reason to trust that Trump will follow through on his promise to help Mamdani and NYC.
But what that meeting did do is help decrease the rhetoric, and even if that's only temporary, its better to have than not.

Each of the 86 Corporate Dems who voted to "condemn socialism" & was in Congress when Biden used taxpayer money to bailout banks, supported Biden using taxpayer money to bailout banks.
They believe in socialism for the wealthy but rugged individualism for working class. MLK called them hypocrites.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Lying liars continue to lie. Not ‘news.’
Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

And this is why I know the Democratic Party is dying. There is an obvious answer to our current moment, and they don’t want to take it because choosing it will foreclose the politics that they profit from.
We’re getting so much empty, stupid, outrageous corruption and I just want a Democratic Party that says, “Enough.” That’s a full sentence!
Democrats should run the most aggressive, brutal, unrestricted anti-corruption campaign in history. Fuck all the big money, just go hard at the wealthy like you’ll never win them over. Because you won’t.
