So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Sad to hear Dave Ball of #Softcell no longer with us. Was performing and writing to the very end!
Dave Ball, one half of Tainted Love hitmakers Soft Cell, dies, aged 66
Bandmate Marc Almond paid tribute, saying: "He will always be loved by the Soft Cell fans who love his music and his music and memory will live on."

Here, Bob Odenkirk (in a pod with Mike Birbiglia) says something I have been thinking about *so much* the last few years but I never, ever hear expressed in public. Lord, hearing it said aloud just made me burst into tears. (Yes I'm fine why do you ask.)

Starts at 39:00.

I've been wanting to tell my widowhood story publicly for years, but I know I don't have the kind of grief story people want to hear.

No community rallied, no family healed, no strength discovered.

I wrote about the gap between grief narratives and reality.

Mike Johnson will go down as the most destructive Speaker of the House in history primarily through his inaction and looking the other way. His phony piousness isn’t going to earn him the afterlife he expects.

It is enough to do your best.

You get better every single day.

You are capable of so much.

You have courage and confidence to do the right thing.

You can get through anything.

You can make a difference.

I'm proud of you

We the people. Our Country. You may not sanction the FA’ing but you are participating in the FO’ing. Framing what is happening through the political lens of the last 50+ years does not work. We won’t save our Democracy unless we find a common voice to fight this.

Would appreciate the upvotes. Tech workers need to wake up. Because they're about to all get rolled.
