Weekends are a great time to watch "Standing Room Only!" The newest episode is a hoot. I watch while doing dishes or cooking.

Watching, liking, and subscribing is an easy and pleasurable way to fight the right, as well.

A new piece from me on @theassemblync.bsky.social:

After a two-year fight over LGBTQ books and displays, Yancey County is pulling its public library out of a regional system. Residents wonder what will be left.

Born to be a river,
but living like a tree.
Mossy rocks don't roll.
Roots aren't really free.

Suing far right influencers who spread conspiracy theories about private figures to audiences full of unhinged and violent trolls is good, and more people put through these horrible ringers should do it.

🚨 North Carolina Republicans just introduced HB 804, which completely bans abortions after conception — with no exceptions for rape/incest and includes a minimum $100,000 fine for seeking reproductive health care.

Can't Find a Phone Booth
If I can't hear you
smile again
I'm cashing out
on the next spin
Shined both boots
and brushed my hat
then packed a bag
in no time flat
Caught the first bus
I could find
to ride until
you're far behind
If I can't tell you
one more tale
I might as well
just go to hell

The past was a blast.
The future's uncertain.
The present's a problem

These people swallow any lie
as long as it somehow relieves
And often love the kind of line
only a fool ever believes
Searching for a shred of truth
most would never hope to find
Razing every last facade
just to fertilize my mind

Kennedy’s longtime allies and fellow travelers in the anti-vaccine movement were overjoyed by his confirmation. But they greeted his new MMR statements with a mixture of outrage, silence, and unusually cautious statements, seemingly waiting to hear more before denouncing Kennedy.
