I got an actual "Your silence on this subject is deafening" message this AM, so, super-quick: Nobody here owes anyone commentary about anything. This is a public park. It's full of interesting people. We hang out here, make friends, and chat, and then we leave to do whatever it is we do. That's it!

At my first ever author panel/book signing, lured out of my lair by the power of a Reylo fanfic author. I didn’t bring any books to sign, think I’m doing this wrong judging by the crowd.

This is 100% correct.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

No need to even bother to boycott, after Colbert is off the air, there is literally nothing else to watch on that network. Boycotting requires giving up something you otherwise would use.

(b) a demonstration of Van Hollen's political skills, which are stronger than most of us realized;
(c) a sign to other politicians that bold action will bring outsized attention, as it has with Booker and AOC.

The most important political divide is no longer between left & right. Not even between liberal & authoritarian. Its between those who grasp the sheer scale & potentially revolutionary consequences – in the US & around the world – of what Trump is trying to do in his 2nd term; and those who don’t.

Bernie Sanders is holding MASSIVE rallies in packed venues, bigger crowds than Trump was getting, and legacy media is practically silent. Bernie is talking to workers rather than hanging out with socialites with mediocre plastic surgery at Mar-a-Lago, and it's just not interesting to corporate media

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.
He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.
