Oliver Sacks literally defined my twenties — back when I thought I could use neuroscience to disprove god. Oddly apt that since then I’ve decided to become a writer of fiction

I knew #trump was a bad man the first time I saw his picture in the paper when I was a small girl … it’s weird to have hated him since the eighties … prescient even
Jeffrey Epstein knew what he was talking about . . .

People with no criminal records now make up the largest group in ICE detention.

They’re also holding children for longer than twenty days after ripping them away from their families.

They’re deporting people in persistent vegetative states.

They’re committing crimes against humanity.

You know, I'm 70 years old, and I've been thru hell, climbed close to heaven, and touched back down here on Earth, which had everything necessary for humans to thrive. Greed has destroyed much. Maybe it's too late to save it. But we need to try.

Jobs/inflation reports - hidden

ICE identification - hidden

Actual reporters booted from Pentagon - easier to hide crimes

Epstein files - still hidden

Hmmm... For the "most transparent administration ever", they sure hide a lot of things.

So it turns out an ice agent is much more likely to have an arrest record than an immigrant.

Going to run in the dark in the fog with a headlamp because it’s that cursed time of year in the mountains of Austria.

I hope I live to see tomorrow … or just dinner time

That anyone--ANYONE--believes anything that comes out of his gross pie-hole, leaves me flummoxed. (A fine word, isn't it?)
#Trump #piehole #flummoxed

(I'm caffeinated and hashtags seem funny)
It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

A lot of you say "Gaslight" when what you mean is Bamboozle.

The result is that we've watered down the real psychological harm of gaslighting and we've underutilized a really fun word to say.

I’m pretty sure this year is a new record for the amount of times I’ve muttered, “Jesus Fucking Christ” while reading the news

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.
