Introverted bookish Kansas Queenager who became disillusioned with Rs during Dubya’s administration. Orange is my least favorite color. Someone needs to step in to get F-Elon out of our lives.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

If Trump is saying he wants the tariffs so we could manufacture more products here. Then why is he so against the CHIPS Act and why isn’t he investing in factories to produce these products like Biden did with the Chips Act?

It’s insane to think that the Trump administration was more welcoming this week to the Tate brothers than to the President of Ukraine.

F-Elon is doing all this illegal crap because SCOTUS told him he could. Our rights, our privacy, our lives can all be taken away while that orange turd has immunity.

@murray.senate.gov explain to me, like I’m 5, how billionaire civilian from South Africa, who illegally overstayed his student visa, has total control of the United States while our leaders just sit there, watching it all burn to the ground. #usaid #treasury #musk #fraud @housedemocrats.bsky.social

I am very much in favor of merit-based hiring and high standards for jobs with life and death implications. Which is why I oppose confirming Pete Hegseth, RFK JR, Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel.

For anyone still on Facebook: trump is on there and has everyone as followers. If you don’t want to see his garbage, you must block him.

I will be re-watching as many episodes of West Wing as I can today after I finish my audiobook.
Avoiding that name, that face, that voice is essential to my mental health.
How is everyone else coping?

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

I am already sick of all trump all the time. We had a wonderfully refreshing breather with Joe simply doing his job without grandstanding.

If your goal this year is to read more books, remember:

you don’t have to finish every book you start. If you’re halfway through and can’t stand the characters or just don’t care what happens, it’s okay to put it down.

Life’s too short to read books you don’t love!

The party that tells young people not to bother with college, bans books, and wants to disband the Department of Eduction is currently annoyed that American workers aren't educated enough for skilled jobs.
