lol we've hit "panic buying eggs" at the 3 week mark
🚨BREAKING: Frantic customers are now panic buying massive amounts of eggs at Costco, just like they did with toilet paper during Trump's last term. This is only the beginning of the chaos.

Make sure everyone sees this.

I was awake and writing but forgot to check in with the #5amwritersclub. I am re-reading something I wrote last week and am shocked to report it is decent. Respectable. Real. Sorry for the alliteration there and it is true. I surprised myself. How is your Friday so far, #WritingCommunity? #amwriting

Who the fuck would have the nerve to take the 5th Amendment during a Senate confirmation hearing???

This is in reference to the cowardly sycophant Kashyap Pattel they want running the FBI. But he's so dirty he can't even answer simple questions.

What kind of insane timeline are we in right now?

It is probably going to take longer than we'd like, but eventually Trump will deport or imprison enough of his followers that they'll finally realize he despises every single one of them.

Cult members are always the last to wake up.

Hegspeth is confirmed. Now What? He has no idea how to manage the Pentagon. So he is going to be dependent on his direct reports. Most of which require confirmation.

The Dems have to use whatever political skills they have to get qualified, rational people in these positions ?

Suggestions ?

Ditto.
I love being able to block people immediately on this platform for any reason whatsoever. It is a piece of freedom to be able to draw your own boundaries whenever and however you want.

They are, after all, YOUR boundaries.
