I can’t help but smirk at all of this. For a decade, I’ve mocked Naomi Wolf any chance I got, and most of the Twitter trolls and backlash that came after me just couldn’t understand my beef with Naomi Klein.

Naomi Klein on following her ‘doppelganger’ down the conspiracy rabbit hole – and why millions of people have entered an alternative political reality
For years the writer laughed off being mistaken for fellow author Naomi Wolf. Then her ‘double’ drifted into a world of conspiracy theories and...

No sane person likes the political hell hole that extremist Republicans and a few complicit democrats have plunged us into in the last decade. But the solution is sure as fuck not to give the Republicans even one more seat in other chamber of congress. Because that is national suicide. Full stop. And if you don't know why. READ MORE !
With our current fascism problem ascending, trashing democrats makes as much sense as shitting in your own cereal so you can rat out the simpleton who did it.
My first cross post did not go too well. Probably pilot error. Too tired to debug tonight. Tomorrow is another day. No really, it is! I read it on the Internet.
Stupid tweets in the fediverse are a lot less stupid than stupid tweets anywhere else. A low bar, sure, but there it is.
ICYMI, as I did, y'all need to watch this.

Testing testing, this is only a test. (Had this been an actual emergency you would have been instructed to bend over and kiss your ass goodbye.)
Whenever some MAGA chowderheaded DNA misfire complains of the “liberal twitter” that never actually existed, show them this.
I don’t follow any of these vermin. Twitter just puts them in my face because [someone] chooses to.
Why isn’t anyone in the press talking about this?


Just my luck, I'd have some 2-3 day stomach bug just as the fever breaks and the temperature drops from OMFG, my ass is on fire, to a nice, survivable 90 degrees. I'm too ill to go outside and do stuff I've needed to do for 3 months. when this latest climate apocalypse began.

Well, here comes Andrea Mitchell. That's my cue to turn off MSNBC and go be productive somehow.
Strenuously disagree. You’re falling right thru the Overton window without a net. We’ve moved so far right, the previous fringe right is now mainstream. Reagan and his reciprocal fealty to Heritage, Federalist Society and the rest of the neoliberal crackpot think tanks that almost single handedly dismantled the concept of the “big gubmint” that built our entire culture. He effectively trademarked “Government is the problem.”

Respectfully, and without intending to defend his policies, Reagan never threatened the basic foundations of democracy. Like his VP did, Re...

As I might have expected, my hernia swelling has gone way down today. I want it to be huge when I see the surgeon tomorrow because I want my repair to be fast tracked.
Tim Scott is telling us what he's going to do if he ever gets to the big house.
His Vivek ever watched himself on TV? I bet even he would find him irritating and turn him off .
If you turn the sound off, the Republican debate looks and sounds a lot like Fox News.
