Nothing like two throat surgeries in under a year to make me less social. First was thyroid removal because of cancer, second was Wednesday where they removed 19 lymph nodes because the cancer got into a few of them. Apologies for falling out of contact with a lot of y'all. I'm still here.

So Bluesky raised 100 million USD in April last year from a bunch of crypto scammers and just "forgot" to tell people? And they released it after getting a new CEO who will push for growth (and probably monetization)? Sounds super healthy and normal.

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy. Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

Absolutely (and literally) killing it, Florida. "We gave you cups but they're kinda just wiped out rather than washed in a dishwasher. Viruses and bacteria aren't real, it's all just God's will or something." Leading the charge back into the Dark Ages.

@amyklobuchar.com no, this is a fascist takeover with unprecedented power grabs at all levels. It's far past the time to keep trying to maintain a status quo. As a constituent, we need someone who will defend us and our nation against these fascists, not compromise our nation away.

"It is very clear that, if there is a middle of all of this hot mess of division, Americans want us to work together when we can and find common ground," Sen. Amy Klobuchar tells the Opinion writer Michelle Cottle.

Please stop shaming disabled, vulnerable, and those in food deserts for not being able to boycott everything…I would love to be able to not shop at specific places but my diet is already ridiculously limited so it's shop there, not eat at all or be sick and not able to work.

Considering that "at conception" all humans are female, I guess we're all female now by executive order. Huh. Combined with all the requirements around bathrooms now, we can just convert all bathrooms to female only and the issue is closed. How do you do, fellow women?

I agree with Brandi. If you suspect watching the coverage tomorrow is going to make you miserable, don’t bother. You’ll miss nothing and feel better. It will be boring as hell no matter what! Personally, I’m not going near it. There’s better stuff to do (almost anything is better).

I am seeing so many posts on social media about boycotting the inauguration. Don't you dare. Don't you dare turn your eyes away from history, even the awful, scary parts. If you don't watch it with your own eyes, you rely on others to tell you what you saw. We must all bear witness to what's coming

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago. In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists. Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

I’m working on updates the Capitol Riot Map—an interactive visualization of the more than 1,500 individuals connected to January 6th. I’ve spent more than 3-years and devoted hundreds of hours to this project, and there’s still more work to be done. Details on how to support this project below👇🏼
