I am a big Oregon Duck fan, and lover of video games. I’ve been playing world of Warcraft for way too long. I also enjoy fantasy, sci-fi, human rights, magic the gathering, D&D, and those Reese’s peanut butter animal cookies from Costco.

Today seems like a good day to remind #booksky that Audible is owned by an oligarch. It’s a good day to cancel your membership. Get a library card and download the Libby app or Libro.fm which helps support a local bookstore of your choice. #boycott #readers

Songs I enjoy that are fun to scream in your car whilst driving, or riding on a bus:
“Rise Inside” by Killswitch Engage
Positive, inspirational metal does exist.

Exploding Kittens on Netflix is hilarious. Fun show to help keep the news at bay.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.
Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Started the next book, “How to Talk to a Science Denier” by Lee McIntyre.
I’m just past the first section and one thing that’s stuck out so far is to really connect with people that have ingrained beliefs is to listen. Just listen and respond to what they’re saying, and be warm.

I highly recommend “Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism” by Amanda Montell.
It shines a big ol’ light on how cults like Qanon use language to get you to believe without you even realizing it. If you’re interested in the “how” this book covers that nicely.

Damn, this book is wild. Didn’t realize pretty much everything in our lives uses “cultish” language. The power of language is way stronger than we realize.

I started up a new audible book called Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism by Amanda Montell tonight.
Im fascinated by cults and how people get sucked into them. I’m not even out of the first part yet, and she’s already dropped some really interesting tidbits about the power of speech.
