Do not give this woman a dime of your money.
1. Do not watch the new show.
2. Do not stream any of the movies (yes, that includes Fantastic Beasts)
3. Do not buy any of her books. She has a pen name Robert Galbraith.

Someone on X pointed out the scant coverage of Ron Johnson saying 9/11 was an inside job. The press assumes Republicans are crazy and malevolent, so when they say crazy stuff it doesn't get covered. But they assume Dems are competent & sane, so any data point to the contrary is treated as big news.

Be suspicious of anyone who fixates on IQ as a measure of intelligence. Real intelligence isn’t a number, it’s a burning curiosity, a delight in the world, a voracious hunger “to follow knowledge like a sinking star / beyond the utmost bound of human thought.”

Elon wants apartheid America. So does Trump. And second class citizens-the disenfranchised and persecuted-in the society they’re engineering will not just be people of color, but women, all who disagree with them and all who aren’t rich. They want authoritarian, oligarchic, apartheid.

If it’s an utter shitshow either way, why would you vote “yes” on the GOP’s budget.
I hate the fact that the lying party will blame the Dems for a government shutdown, but so what? They lie about every goddamn thing, every goddamn day.
