The President does not have the authority to cancel elections.
And in fact, saying so is another impeachable offense.

We like to imagine ourselves as civilized and enlightened compared to past generations, with international law and a “rules-based international order,” but the fact remains that if someone has the power and the will to do something, they will do it. The only real solution is to take away that power.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Controlled Burn
Arid lands extend their scope,
Granting dustier respite.
An advance, or so we deem.
Forests felled to make new space,
Concrete plots and self-regard.
Sensible design, we deem.

I do not fast from comfort to seem brave;
I feast on what allows my soul to rest.

look, I may not agree with every decision our president makes, but he is our commander in chief and I will defend to the death his right to be impeached, removed from office, arrested, stripped of his wealth, tried for his crimes and thrown straight the fuck into prison

2026 is going to be the year I self #publish a #book of #poetry. I'm interested in #crowdfunding but I don't have any experience with it. Does anyone have any knowledge they would be willing to impart to me about that sort of thing?
