Big nerd, because science. My love language is sarcasm.
Last night we watched the Best Christmas Pageant Ever. A really good and poignant movie - showing again there is so much hypocrisy in our world.

Merry Christmas.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
Those observing Christmas are celebrating a family of asylum seekers. If there is indeed a "War on Christmas," it's being waged by those trying to make our country less safe for the poor, for the marginalized, and for refugees.

An embarrassment, indeed.
There's always a Tweet.

Hanukkah celebrates finding perseverance, strength, and light in the darkest moments.

Now more than ever, it’s on all of us to carry that light forward for the good of everyone.

Speaking of a war on women….
RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women".

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

I don't understand why this isn't the only story and why he isn't giving his resignation.

I mean, I do. But still.

How can the president. THE PRESIDENT. Of the United States of America. The. President.

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Don’t forget this.

I’m agnostic but I still believe in this: “I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.”

It’s pretty telling when we all know that the “verified” “official” accounts are best avoided like the plagues they are.

Sharing this so more can see. She’s 15. She’s screaming “I want my parents.” UNMASK ICE!
In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

How is this not making the news??
There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

Residents woken in the middle of the night, doors to their homes blown down, dragged from their homes, loaded into trucks, children separated from families, apartments looted…these horrific events must be from the Holocaust, right?! No - Chicago, 10/1/25. This is Trump’s legacy.
