Man, I don't remember if I totally nuked my Twitter account or just abandoned it, but I haven't touched it in years. It's just a cesspool of mindless Nazi zombies sharing braindead far right political memes and drooling about 'free speech.'

This should alarm every American. Trump is shutting out independent election observers while preparing to send his own DOJ monitors to polling places. That's a page out of Putin's playbook. Our elections belong to the people — not Donald Trump.

Trump administration refuses international election monitors for first time in over 2 decades

The decision not to invite observers from the OSCE puts the U.S. alongside Russia and Belarus, while the Justice Department prepares to deploy its own poll monitors.

Went shopping for Yule gifts for my spouse. While I was picking up some bits and bobs from the bookstore -we both love to read, it's an easy shopping place to hit first- I happened upon the spooky season shelf. And a beautiful copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula. I've never read it. This should be fun!

So, a possible pneumonic plague outbreak in Russia. Cool. Cool, cool, cool. Not at ALL fucking terrifying given who is running the healthcare system in the most powerful nation on Earth. Cool.

As we enter the final month before the midterms, don't get cocky. If anything, it's time to ramp up the work and pour it on. Check your registration. Vote early. Push your friends and family too. Look for local places to help out. Phone bank and write postcards. Volunteer for Election Day.
