Whoa! Here it is. The moment in 2018 when Donald Trump removed the Dodd-Frank regulations that would have prevented the Silicon Valley Bank collapse. Don’t let anyone forget this.

last night I walked into a restaurant and was told to put on a mask, and I said "oh right, of course" and I put on a mask. because it's just a mask, and I'm not a stupid fucking whiny chip-on-shoulder performative-nonsense dirty-diaper grievance-baby

Go to the pound. There are dogs there waiting for you to walk through the door. They've been there for weeks, maybe months staring at four walls. Don't go looking for a specific breed.

Friendly reminder that last summer's BLM protests, being presented here in this false equivalency, were a response to murders of Black men and women by police officers using excessive force.

The Wonder Years premiered 33 years ago today (1988) depicting events 20 years earlier (1968). A similar show today would be set in 2001.

The wealthiest people I know don’t talk about money. The most pious people I know don’t preach to me. The toughest people I know don’t show bravado or carry guns everywhere. The most patriotic people I know don’t wear flags or call themselves patriots.

Trumpers had guns, bombs, zip ties, were yelling “heads on pikes” and “hang Pence,” and bludgeoned a police officer to death in the #CapitolRiots, but the left are the radical, violent ones.

Too many shrugged, enabled, and empowered when he called Mexican rapists, caged babies, gassed protestors, openly engaged in criminality, tried to ban Muslims, insulted Black Americans, Asian Americans, and let 350,000 Americans die so here we are...
We're at the tear gassing children stage of the Trump presidency but sadly I expect things to get worse because this is who he is.

They used more tear gas for the presidents photo shoot with the Bible than they’re using on these terrorists.

My mom died from COVID before the vaccines, so I don’t want anyone else’s mom getting the vaccine. JK, I was just seeing what its like to be one of the “don’t cancel student loan debt because I paid mine off” crowd. Feels shitty! No thanks!
