Great question! Are you listening, Democrats? Can you hear anything over the sound of your billionaire donors?

Huh. How about that? Now all those Democratic centrists will have to scramble like mad to come up with some other reason to crush the wildly popular left-wing of their own party.

A potato’s with eyes would be more proactive. Pretty soon I’m gonna start believing he’s taking bribes from Putin to destroy the Democratic Party from within and subvert American democracy.

Oh, those good Christian conservatives! Jesus would be so proud. I can just picture him hanging on the cross, offering comfort and benediction to the thief crucified next to him, when Megyn Kelly walks up and says this to the Roman soldiers:

Well, yes, but what about burning down the planet and using up available water supplies? That’s the real cherry on top! It’s like a buy one get one free!

No mainstream media outlet has grasped the terrifying enormity and implications of this. This is a club to beat the last dregs of American democracy to death. The cost of the club is irrelevant compared to the purpose for which it will be used.

OK, every centrist Dem pretending you couldn’t understand why so many Americans turned Luigi into a folk hero, the ball is in your court . That very same United health is now gloating that they plan to cause the death of 1 million seniors who’ve been paying them money. So what’s your plan?

This move allows them to attack higher education, target female students, and significantly hurt a profession that allows women to earn a middle class salary. Fascism and patriarchy have always been two sides of the same coin.

This absolutely gorgeous collection is getting a book launch at #texasbookfest in Austin this weekend! My essay, “Once, my father showed me an arrowhead,” is included! I’ll be reading from it in our session on Saturday afternoon.

Last warm day of autumn… I’m getting to spend it on my front porch with my dog and my guitar, because apparently I’m living in that West Texas life.

Everyone needs to go google the term “imperial boomerang” immediately.

The kitten, Milkdud. Protected by lawful good paladin dog, Mando. Now grown. Chaotic neutral. Thief assassin. Natural 20 appearance, charisma, agility.

Mando (the Mandalorian). A paladin. Lawful good. Strong, silent type. Protector of the kitten, Milkdud.

Wow, this is a great idea! It worked so well at reducing regular police violence…oh. Right.

I mean, this is huge. But also, is it? So if Trump orders ICE to ignore this ruling, who’s gonna stop them? I’m not asking rhetorically. Literally, what do court rulings actually mean under a regime that openly disregards them?

This is the Washington Post. This. They’ve gone from bending the knee to grovel their belly to lick the jackboots.
