Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

"It's not MSNBC anymore, Lemon. It's MS NOW. We bought the name off of a defunct multiple sclerosis awareness organization. It wasn't cheap, but we were able to save some money by selling Brian Williams to a Saudi prince who wanted to expand his harem."

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

Dealing with law enforcement can be stressful, so it’s important to know your rights before you’re face-to-face with ICE agents.
While there’s never any guarantee that law enforcement officers will follow the law, here’s what they can and can’t legally do to you and what you can legally demand. ⤵️

DOGE Plans to Rebuild SSA Codebase In Months, Risking Benefits and System Collapse
Social Security systems contain tens of millions of lines of code written in COBOL, an archaic programming language. Safely rewriting that code would take years—DOGE wants it done in months.

I finally posted the 2024 Reading Log in my Etsy store (syndprod.etsy.com). 12 pages, half-legal. What I read in 2024: what I loved, hated, didn't finish. The fourteenth Reading Log I've published since 2004! Remember fellow kids, before the internet there was the papernet, and zines aren't dead!

All this business I am reading about social security is nonsense. My mom died on 2/18. My dad got a letter yesterday informing him her benefits were ending and he had to repay the February payment because they don’t give a payment in the month someone dies. They know where every dollar is.

Yesterday I testified before Texas's Senate Committee on Education K-16, against Senate Bill 13, which would affectively ban supposedly "indecent" and "profane" books in public school classrooms and libraries. Here's a clip:
