Congress voting to gut Medicaid will kill Americans and create untold suffering. Moms + babies. Grandmas in memory care. Disabled folks. The GOP has blood on their hands. Congress is now enacting a genocide on its poorest and most vulnerable. This is eugenics in action.

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

Someone emailed me to tell me they didn’t like my book because it contained, and I quote: “Historical quotes from people I have never heard of (even centuries old people.)” My sincere apologies.

Trump is offering all federal workers a buyout with seven months’ pay to shrink the government—but that’s not the whole story. Reports reveal some employees are being pressured to resign or face termination under the guise of organizational restructuring. In short: take the buyout or be fired.

While we may face repercussions for this, the truth lies in the metadata. Memos to federal employees are being authored by individuals with ties to Project 2025. You can verify this yourself.

By erasing it, or trying to, they make it more memorable. The Internet is written in indelible ink.

Fascism is surging in many places around the globe, but Americans aren't hearing about the protests outside our borders. 100,000 Berliners protested at the Brandenburg Gate, and I had to read about it on a French news website. Good people of the world: we must turn out, we must resist.

@joyannreid.bsky.social said 89 million of us (that's 36% of the voting pop.) didn't vote. Whether due to apathy, voter suppression, or "don't vote" propaganda on social media, this is gutting me. Our right to vote is one so many died for, yet folks not exercising it may have cost us our democracy.

I know this sounds weak, I know it.

But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other.

We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.

Hey Bluesky. Thanks for having me. This is the sort of stuff I make - D&D character art, magic items, and other nerdy stuff. I do commissions from time-to-time as well.

But the government does get to decide what healthcare it covers, whose IDs are valid, which people it’s legal to discriminate against.

This culture war idiocy is so powerful. This is going to be a long fight.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
