I would take more pleasure in watching Kevin McCarthy squirm and grovel, but the consequences of his concessions to the far-right are very troubling and could put us on a road no one wants to go down for the next two years. I explain in today’s piece.

It’s bad when your lawyers need lawyers.

Absolutely floored that I gained over 100 followers on Mastodon today. I'm not sure if it's because:

A. You think my facts are kind of funny.

B. I was banned from Twitter and you all just despise Elon Musk that much.

C. You're all con artists who are planning to slowly gain my trust and then rob me blind when I least suspect it.

Honestly, I'm good with any of the above.

FIGHT! 🍿

To file for future reference: "We're gonna fix that" is Elon Musk's tell.
That's his go-to reply when he's out of bullshit, completely out of his depth and has no idea what's going on or how things actually work.

I don’t think Tucker Carlson is actually on Putin’s payroll, but I’m hard pressed to think of any way he’d behave differently if he were. https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/tucker-carlson-accuses-volodymyr-zelensky-waging-war-against-christianity

I have a life threatening health condition that can require the immediate attention of #ambulance crews. I would be considered a category 1 emergency which is being given priority. But, I've told my husband that if I die because an ambulance cannot get to me, he is not to blame the #nhsstrikes, he is to blame the #tories and their incompetence. Point the finger at the right villain. The #tory govt would rather you died than pay those who save us. I stand firmly with the #NHS & it's workers ✊💙✊

Under Trump, Zelenskyy was extorted, weakened and made more vulnerable. Under Biden, he's been celebrated and supported.

Does the Bible not teach us, “Scramble yee for pointless and sure to be unappreciated last second gifts just so you have something to give the person”?

I don’t ever post personal things, but I’m too excited not to share!
I have had an incredibly tough medical battle for the last two years.
Without getting into specifics, yesterday was a huge milestone for me!
My Hickman (tunneled central line) was removed. Although I still have some chronic med issues/pain, this marks a significant move in the right direction and a big improvement in my quality of life!
I’M SO THANKFUL! ☺️❤️‍🩹🎉

Is it not fitting that one if the exceptionally few #museum s with the awareness to start publishing here is the Auschwitz Memorial?
