This is the kind of breakdown of Project 2025 we need more of—@jesspish.bsky.social is the leading expert on sheriffs and their myths, and was able to put a lot of history and context to work despite what little detail "Mandate" offered on sheriffs.

Pro tip: call the Project 2025 1-800 number and complain about it to them. The people answering the phones don’t seem to know what the plan even is.

I LOVE teaching novel workshops. There’s nothing more satisfying than helping someone navigate that particular marathon. Unfortunately, most workshops are geared for short stories. That’s why I started offering my Whole Novel Workshop a few years ago.

The window between “thank god we don’t have to pay for summer camps anymore” and “oh fuck we have to pay for college” is so very very brief.

Two Democratic U.S. senators announced Tuesday that they are seeking a criminal investigation of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas over gifts of travel, a loan for a recreational vehicle and other benefits he received from wealthy benefactors.

Proud to be the voice of reason and experience telling my kid, as he registered for college classes for the first time, that he would really come to regret (and skip) that 8am philosophy class he was considering.

The official 2024 GOP platform makes a reference to "Christian-hating Communists" who the Republicans will keep from entering the country. Back in the early days of the America First movement, "Christian-hating Communists" would have just been a longer way of saying "Jews."

I don't get it when people point out that Project 2025 is "nothing new." Yes, obviously, right-wingers have been fanatics for decades. They were blowing up abortion clinics and shooting doctors when I was a kid. But, as you may have noticed, their political vision has kind of been coming together.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

New anxiety dream launched last night: Instead of the usual trying to find my way out of a haunted house or realizing that I was back in college and hadn’t checked my campus mailbox in six months, I was trying to pull a child-size t-shirt over my head and got stuck in it.

By saying things like, "This conviction won't matter," and by the press focusing on Trump's admittedly entertaining reactions, we are simply polishing his image as the Unstoppable Criminal Clown. What if we all said, "This matters," and the press said, "Biden just smiled."

People who were repeatedly vaccinated for COVID-19 — initially receiving shots aimed at the original variant, followed by boosters and updated vaccines targeting variants — generated antibodies capable of neutralizing a wide range of SARS-CoV-2 variants and even some distantly related coronaviruses.

It’s awesome that Trump’s making all these sweaty sycophants show up to a courthouse and listen to overwhelming evidence of his crimes and then go out and lie to reporters. You got to hand it to the guy, he reveals people’s true character.
