Queer 🏳️‍🌈 elder genx ☮️ guy. is it redundant to state that i’m allergic to fascists, magats, and nazis? however, i’m attracted to dudes, turtlenecks, shoes, hoodies, sports, French cuffs, sleeveless workout tees, Wes Anderson movies, my cats…and kindness.

There’s already *another* discharge petition waiting in the wings for a 218th signature.

Let’s focus on getting that one to the finish line first, shall we?

“This is a movement…This is an achievement of a whole society…I am just one person.”

The beautiful humility of Venezuelan pro-democracy leader, Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

Yes, I’m a huge baseball fan.

Yes, I saw the PHI-LA game last night.

Yes, the Phillies will be dining on a steady diet of PFP’s in Spring Training.

What a horrible way to go down to end a series…

PFPs will never be more important than they will be in Clearwater in 2026.

I only ask because my ex is from northern New Jersey, and although he’s lived in CA for over almost 40 years, he still uses that word! When I saw the sign it reminded me of him. In fact, I’ll tell him about the sign because I owe him a call anyway!

A neighborhood grandmother that always sees my partner and I running around the block and knows that we're running a race soon made this great sign and stuck it in our yard.

A white sign in a yard with the words "You's got this" in orange with a finish line underneath. Bottom left corner is a drawing of two shirtless stick figures (one with long hair and a red headband and orange shorts, the other in a blue backwards cap and blue running shorts) running.

…aaaaand, to confirm, Norway indeed did NOT play his game.

I have a feeling Scandinavians really don’t like narcissistic sociopath PedoFelon fascists that suffer from dementia.

Norway isn’t going to bother playing his game.

Is Biden eligible? THAT could possibly do the trick if it were a possibility.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

When faced with ridiculous questions like this reporter is asking, there is really only one correct response, and it’s given here.

Courage and integrity are traits that are not bestowed on everyone. One needs to solve more than *seven wars* in order to receive such a prestigious award.

This was the lunch pail that is most associated with my childhood in the ‘70’s.

Gosh, how I loved carrying this around! 💙

1961 dome Disney school bus. It even had the wheels on the bottom. It was metal, so when you held it by the handle it was a legit weapon when swung.

Domed yellow school bus with young Disney characters in the windows, Bambi running to catch it, and Donald duck bringing the baby ducks a book.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

NY State Attorney General Letitia James has been slapped with bogus charges from an illegitimate DOJ that probably won’t even reach trial.

New York Attorney General Letitia James @newyorkstateag.bsky.social · 20h

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..
