An Academic Affair is out now in the US and Canada!

I'm really proud of this book - a romantic comedy set in academia, the world I live in - and if you wanted to pick up a copy, that'd make my day. bookshop.org/p/books/an-a...

JD's family has spent $35M on vacations.

Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date.

Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term.

ALL WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS.

But you think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

It's a meaningless vote, because even if it got 100 votes in the Senate, it's not going to go anywhere in the House and the president certainly would not sign it," Sanders told CBS News. "Maybe people feel good about having a vote, but it doesn't mean anything at all."
Sanders calls deal to end government shutdown a "disaster"
Sen. Bernie Sanders told CBS News he's "very disappointed" by the bill to end the government shutdown, calling a planned vote on health insurance subsidies "meaningless."

Isn’t it amazing how Congress always always comes to some resolution always late to appearance of how hard they work. This is the best cushy job.

That barista who makes your coffee just right.

The cook at your favorite diner.

Your kind neighbor who is on deployment.

They all have jobs. They all need SNAP to make ends meet.

When Trump & the GOP deride those who need some help, understand who they are talking about.

It’s people like you.

This is Wolfie, who was abandoned in a cat carrier in Mpls. He ended up at animal control, who deemed him unadoptable because of his age and issues. He was slated for euthanasia but my friend who runs a rescue got him out, and now he lives with me. He's such a love! #seniorcaturday

Federal workers aren’t getting paid, but of course Kristi Noem gets two private jets costing taxpayers $172 million.

Nothing new from the people who are also sending $40 billion to Argentina while refusing to fund our own government. Shameful.

Organizers of No Kings report official turnout today at nearly 7 million, 2 million more than the first No Kings.

The movement is growing. You'd better give up, Cankles McTaco Tits. We won't stop until the Epstein files are released and you're removed from power.
