If you don't know my writing, here's what I consider my best, most important, and most impactful work. The experience and fallout genuinely changed my life.

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

I will never forgive the DeVos family for what they've done to this city (that absolutely includes you Erik Prince fucking unwashed skidmark).

But this is something at least. Trans people need you to give us a fucking break.

most journalists today can be divided into two groups: dedicated, impoverished people who mostly write for publications you've never heard of that started eighteen months ago or JP Random House The First, who writes columns for the New York Times about which ethnic groups it should be OK to hunt
an important thing about america's current media elites is that they're basically just the dregs of an industry that has been constant contraction since the 90s and thus a lot of them are nepobabies who don't actually want to do any work
Checked this story about Trump shaking Ukraine down in exchange for continuing military aid to see if it mentions that he got impeached for doing that exact thing, and friends, you will not be surprised that it does not.

Weirdo behavio alert. As requested by @socialistdogmom.bsky.social (Weird Little Guys Podcast) a datasheet analyzing Elon Musk's weirdass, manic tweet barrage during the DOGE Coup -- mostly to ask when the hell he sleeps and how much Ketamine he's doing.

I don't think he sleeps.

Concrete barricades are reportedly being built around the White House as Elon Musk's privately owned DOGE team illegally starts taking control of Treasury payments and federal agencies. Musk is seizing massive troves of government and private data, and we don't know how far reaching his access goes.

Fuck, they just hit trans women hard. I'm still reeling a bit, but I included my thoughts in the photos below. This one hit right at home for me.
