We *are* in the middle of a hostile government takeover.
Pinning this to remind myself that a bit of levity can be true, necessary, and also a bop.

I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.
Trump: “I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene…”

20 minutes & 43 seconds of perfection. Hilarious, insane, & oddly poignant. This honestly felt like a much longer film (in the best way). It hit all the right beats.

My friend Dan Perlman made this short doc about being hired to impersonate Michael Bublé at a party and it’s so funny and good. (And my other friend Charlotte produced it!!!)

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Welp. I'd never heard Sugar Mountain by Neil Young but this post "suggested" that I *had* to listen.
I played it on a loop and ended up sobbing uncontrollably for about 30 minutes. I currently feel... inconsolable.

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.
We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.
A vote for this bill is a mistake.

On the one hand, our country is in the sewer sinking to ever lower—previously unknown—depths each day.
On the other hand, this thread of coverage of the Sandwich Guy's trial is surreal and hilarious. 😂
Note: I really hope the jury does the right thing; otherwise, I'll feel bad for laughing.
