It’s 2016 All over Again but It Doesn’t Have to Be
“It’s 2016 all over again,” a friend tweeted this morning. He was talking about how CNN made a point of carrying Trump’s Big Racist Bullshit-stravaganza Campaign Rally on Saturday, but hasn’t bothered to mention more than a passing acknowledgement of the events Biden has been holding.

Like Peas in a Pod
In pretty much any other timeline, a foreign dignitary visiting the White House and meeting with the President would feel like business as usual.

Fundraiser: How the Frak is it May Already Edition
Last fall I was going through some stuff. Some big hairy monster brain weasel professional setback drowning in my own neuroses can’t get anything done stuff. I needed help and you all came through. I? Didn’t. I haven’t kept up my end of the fundraiser bargain and I need to own that and I need…

Bad Brain: Mental Health Update
One of the promises I made for my fundraiser was to write at least two mental health updates each week. By my count, that means I’m now about 4 behind. I will catch up. Oh yes, I will catch up. To be honest, I haven’t been having a great brain…you know, I was going to…
