Listen. I hope there’s a Democrat who will sweep in and pass things that save the economy and don’t really change the status quo because things are so bad. I can’t even imagine this is a cycle that will replay over and over and over until we die.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Reminder (for myself mostly): depression is a fucking liar and it hits the worst around this time of year. We’re in the last stretch of the darkest season and it will get better* once it gets warmer soon. *not counting the horrors of living in hell. But PERSONALLY things will get better.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

They’re killing people in the concentration camps. The kids they’re not killing are going through some of the worst trauma humanly imaginable. This is what’s happening outside the people we’ve seen murdered in broad daylight. Lock the fuck in, people.

If you are in the powerlifting area in my gym, using the powerlifting equipment for something other than powerlifting, getting in my way while I am trying to do my powerlifting workout I dislike you immensely.

they are able to peel back the ACA because its a shitty half measure but if we had gotten real universal healthcare instead no one would dare touch it because literally everybody on all sides would flip out. one more reason why Democratic incrementalism and "pragmatism" is fucking stupid !!!!!
