English / American gay man, live in Fort Lauderdale. As of January 2025, terrified for our country. If you voted for this, stay well away from me.

We need Colbert’s bold and frank commentary now as much as ever, and we need to stop corporations like CBS from cowing to political intimidation of this administration. Add your name to the petition to demand they reverse their decision and keep Colbert on air! sign.moveon.org/petitions/co...

As dangerous as canceling Colbert was for our democracy, it made him infinitely more powerful. I mean, who exactly was watching him before now? Firing him was a signal that what he has to say is REALLY important. I don’t care if he just starts a TikTok, he’ll become one of the key voices in America.

In the next ten months—while he’s still being broadcast—someone needs to get the Epstein list to Colbert so he can read it on the air

You can’t reason with a cult. You can’t meet a cult halfway. You can’t expect a cult to behave with logic or decency. You can’t look past a cult. A cult will never share your values. It exists for one person and one person alone. Don’t excuse active cult members. Don’t welcome them in. Shun them.

Presidents don’t own the country. It doesn’t belong to them. It’s ours. Never forget this basic fact. It’s ours. Never normalize dictatorial power grabs. They’re NOT normal.

Why aren’t we hearing anything about Vance Boelter the man that impersonated a cop and shot two lawmakers,their spouses and their dog. Rep.Melissa Hortman, her husband and dog Gilbert were killed! He had over 70 Democrats on the kill list! Where’s the outrage! 😡😡

The current regime may be acting as if there will never be another election, but I don't feel the need to join them in their malign fantasy.

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

Etsy refuses to remove Alligator Alcatraz merch from their website. Flood them with emails and social media posts. Demand they take down the listings. The disappearing, kidnapping and torturing of others is not a merchandising opportunity. This is life and death.

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."

This last minute freeze of funds will cripple summer classes and camps scheduled to begin soon, leaving poor working parents without options. Shameful. Illegal. Wrong.
