Reading, birding, my cat, and walkable cities are a few of my passions. Twitter exile, now in Southern California.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

Well if anything the right is no longer engaging in the sort of soft racism that Lee Atwater once described. It’s open white supremacy and the media and so-called opposition party won’t say it is.

Articles of impeachment are now being drafted against the Trump loyal Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) are moving to file the articles of impeachment against Bondi for not fully releasing the Epstein Files as required by law.

Amazon is making money off AI copies of books - and putting the onus on authors to prove they’ve been plagiarised.

Honestly, just stop buying books from Amazon. Get them from an actual bookshop or order them from a reputable book supplier like bookshop.org

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

That Presidential pardon power wasn't ended after this is the real crime.
