When an authoritarian, thin-skinned president forbids me to criticize him, some hear that as a threat, but I hear it as a challenge.

All of the unions in Hollywood should immediately boycott Disney/ABC. They only care about money, so go after that.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Maybe you remember it differently! Donald Trump declares Russia won the 1980 Olympics Hockey Game against Team USA "By a lot."

Ashey St. Clair's follow-up book to "Elephants are not Birds" is "Who's your Daddy," a touching tale of an astronaut who is socially inept and banished to Mars. His little boy on Earth wants to be nothing like his father. Sorry if Elon looks a little finster in the picture.

My new name for Trump is Covid-25. He is like a virus that has mutated and is immune to old tactics. We need a new vision to defeat his tyranny.

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

With everything so seemingly terrible these days & no sign of anything remotely hopeful in the near future, I thought you might need this photo of a baby giraffe.

Pete Hegseth honored those who died on 9/11 by showing up to their New York City memorial site in his underwear.

Is that the type of decision making we want running the Department of Defense?
