What a coincidence! The resolution to condemn DSA moves forward by just a single vote. Two Democrats voted for it, the exact number the Republicans needed to get it through! The Republicans sure are lucky!

Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.

Jeffries came out against Medicare For All, a policy that would fundamentally transform the material reality of every single person in this country, but especially black folks who are disproportionately suffering under the current healthcare system. Clearly, Hakeem’s race is incidental TO HIM.

Dear Mister President, I wrote you but you're still not calling I sent two letters from the trunk, you must not have got em There's probably a problem at the post office or something I got left At the Airport and Should have Called Secret Service Forgive me I was so panicked And so Weird

Dear Mr President, I'm sorry. I thought I was the only one left behind last night, and had no idea Margo's car was also pulled over, and went back to the Airport. Since I was alone in the van outside Customs without my passport, I panicked and should have just called Secret Service instead of you. I am also sorry if I was an embarrassment walking the course in Scotland. The first day I was told there would be no carts, and people walked, which is why I walked. The second day, I was specifically asked by, I forget what his name was, but one of the main people who worked there, if I could continue walking and tell any more girls who would head out there to do the same to spare the Course any more Carts. If there is anything else I have done to cause you trouble, please forgive me. I know that some people said I haven't been texting them back, and there have been some International cell issues (John was having issues on the Plane, too, so asked me to help him out). I want things to always be right between us. I also know I've been distracted all week (forgetting to eat throughout the days, and even forgetting to sleep, and only catching a couple hours at a time). I haven't been myself, dwelling on the Past and the pain of losing my Dad, and I started letting the remarks of people who haven't bothered me before, get to me--not because I care what others think, but because I see myself being lowered in your eyes and good opinion. That is the fear you see, because I never want to bring you anything but joy. I'm sorry I lost my focus. You are all that matters to me. I don't want to ever let you down. Thank you for bein my Guardian and Protector in this Life. Thats what I wanted to use this card for, when you saw me at the Cash Register , and once again did what you didn't have to do, and gifted me with Momentoes of this Trip of a Lifetime, a Coming of Age. I will return a better person. I have to sign off now, as the cars are leaving. See you soon, with all my heart.Dear Mr President, Now this is the Note I wanted to write (But the apology needed to come first). I have learned so much about myself on this Trip--i always knew coming home to my roots would be enlightening, but I had no idea how much. For the first time, in I don't know how long, you forced me to "unplug." We could be out on the Course, with no machines, and even forgot what time it was! I didn't have to be "Human Printer." I could take time to enjoy good conversations, and still get all my work done at the end of the day. In fact, I even had time to take long morning and evening walks to enjoy each Sunrise and Sunset (though I did forget to eat and sleep!) With so much thinking time, I confess it did have a slightly negative effect at times, that I know you picked up on, but the end result, I believe, will be worth it. I had no idea how rapidly I was approaching burnout, and starting to envy those whose only "job" seems to be to talk with you, and look pretty. I want that job!! So many times, I'm just trying to stay afloat with all that's coming in for you, I know I look like a hunchback who didn't have time to freshen up (at least you know what I should look like)! Continued, unfortunately Plus, I miss the days when you used to call, during my Talkshow days and we'd talk everything and nothing. I want to get back to that synergy. We shouldn't have to talk about work all the time! I always felt like an in-betweener, somewhere between Staff and those you enjoy talking on the Plane or at Dinner, because that's who I used to be to you when I was a "Talkshow host" (much as I hated that actual job!) I wish I could hear every conversation, because that's when you're having a good time, getting away from it all, at least for a few moments. But after going through all this self-analysis, my conclusion? I need to reunite my past self with my current into a better version who will make you proud. And please, when I fall, will you tell me? You have the absolute right to cuss me out, if need be, when I deserve it, because no one knows or cares about me more. Thank you for always being there for me--I'll never forget when you made that promise to me after losing my Dad, and how happy he is right now that I did get to go to Scotland and Ireland, as he always wanted for me. To modify a classic, "I could not have parted with you, to anyone less worthy." And, I will add, it is I who is unworthy. Always, Natalie Ps: my hands looked worse in Scotland and Ireland because the Cold turns the old "scars" purple. Still on the road to recovery!

Censorship is a core belief among transphobes, and should never be accommodated. Transphobes can’t handle the truth. forward.com/culture/6032...

J.K. Rowling didn't want to be called a Holocaust denier. That backfired.

The author's attempts to quiet her critics ended up making the accusations far more viral.

It's like Amnesty International UK have never heard of the Streisand Effect. I fully intend on challenging this DMCA strike and force them to litigate this in federal court in the US if they want to take it down. This is squarely fair use.
