One of the more obscure facts I remember about Dolly Parton is this: just like Star Trek would not exist without Lucille Ball, Buffy would not exist without Dolly Parton. She was a silent producer of the movie and show. That's why Buffy Summers has the same birthday as Dolly: January 19.

There are going to be Democrats who say we shouldn’t rip it all out — it’s already built, we have other priorities — but removing the visible signs of Trumpism is absolutely necessary.
The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

Once more for the bigots and the stupids.

Muslim people are not responsible for the actions of Hamas in the same way that Jewish people are not responsible for the actions of the Israeli government.

It's time to stop making excuses for climate change deniers and 'don't knows'.

Do we want to survive?

Dow we want people's children and grandchildren to survive?

If the answer is 'yes', then stand up and fight for your survival.

And I mean fight: take the fight to the enemy that would kill us.

The Red Cross has issued a national blood crisis, with blood donations at a four-year low.

Marylanders – especially those with type O blood – please consider becoming a blood donor to ensure hospitals have the blood they need for patients whose lives depend on transfusions: rcblood.org/donate

In '98, my fellow loggers and I blocked the Canadian border to fight back against billionaire landowners trying to depress our wages.

Susan Collins was my Senator back then. She sided with the big landowners over us. This fall, working people will once again fight back - and send Collins packing.

“Douche tenure” is so spot on that I can only golf clap.

Knew a number of them in my doctorate days.

I’m not allowed to say the things that I want to say about the miserable fucks that I’m thinking of.

So, I will just say this:

If I ever get to hammer red hot spikes into the eyes of certain members of an administration, well, that’ll be a good day.

That’s why we watch the game. Alas, Senegal.

This makes me furious.
This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious.

Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

Even in today's climate, there should be one fundamental principle everyone respects: whatever you think about someone in politics, you leave their kids alone.

Gianni Infantino looks like the most miserable prick on Earth. The asshole is making money with every kick of the ball and he still manages to look bored at every match.

I hope he gets cancer of the eyes.

Having ultra wealthy people is not a sign of a healthy society. It is a sign of a diseased society.
