My liver’s perfect. My kidneys are divine. My glucose is… a little dramatic. We’re waiting on more tests. And I’m being very brave about it.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.
AMAZING! A 90 year old Holocaust survivor confronted Trump's ICE director.
What a legend.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

I wouldn't be out there if I didn't believe that America can come through this moment, if each of us is prepared to play our role in demanding and delivering a better future.
Liberals have a classism problem, and nowhere does it show up more than the student debt relief bill that is going to drop (at least) $400B on less than 40% of the country who went to college and earn as high as $125k/year in personal income. We're essentially injecting inflationary spending into the economy at a time when we're trying to reverse inflation just so that the kids in this country who were gifted enough to attend college and then earn good money afterwards can get a fucking bailout…
$15 billion PER YEAR. In a multi-trillion dollar economy, how much does that really come to?
