I am a staunch Bardolator—I usually shut down around authorship debates. I refused to watch Anonymous and yelled at my tv when I started the documentary (et, tu, Sir Derrick Jacoby?)
But I adored Stalking Shakespeare.
Maybe because my ADHD micro obsessions closely resemble Lee Durkee’s.

ICE officers and cops throwing down and roughing up priests, ministers, pastors, and rabbis is not a good look.

Excusing child r*pist because the victims were 15 instead of 8 years old is a hell of a take.
If you haven’t seen this SiriusXM video in which Megyn Kelly excuses Epstein and others for rape by stating that they weren’t sexually abusing eight-year-olds, only 15-year-olds, save yourself the time.
It’s vile.

Oh and by the way, we've had roughly 2M federal employees since the 1940s though our population has more than doubled.
Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

I found my mother’s copy of Interview with a Vampire at a very interesting time in my psychosexual development.
Other than that, The Hobbit and The Jungle Book made me appreciate language.

Regular people got furloughed, lost SNAP benefits, had flights cancelled, facing losing their health insurance and worked without pay.
Some rich, well-insured senators got cold feet.
They got scared, uncomfortable and they caved.
For NOTHING.

A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

I am really hoping that a result of this SNAP emergency will be that more people realize just how much the program helps everyone—not just in feeding hungry people, but by putting money directly into communities.
SNAP cuts are going to raise food prices across the board.

In normal, functioning democracies, when a governing majority doesn’t pass a budget, 1/more of 👇 happens:
- funding continues at current levels
- a vote of no confidence
