Editor, atheist, empath, ally, Democrat, pro-choice, sarcastic but kind. Love the Beatles, Jeopardy, books, puzzles & word games, trivia. Recently lost my beloved; friends are needed. A bit on the naughty side (yup, I'm a spanko), but classy. MAGAs, scram.

Sooooo... if he knows nothing about Project 2025, why is he saying it's ridiculous and abysmal? And why wish them luck? (And since when does Trump use words like abysmal? Who actually wrote this??) Like hell he knows nothing about it! @#$%ing liar!

He also sang "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch."

On Truth Social, he's denying that he knows anything about it.

Ugh. I'm in agreement with the animals. All this noise is obnoxious.

I am so sick of the media. An L.A. Times journalist I normally like just wrote a condescending "Hey Joe, hey buddy" commentary saying there's no shame in stepping down. I was so angry, I just emailed the journalist at his supplied address and told him off. Won't do any good, but it sure felt good.

JFC. Here's the irony: The people whose willful short-sightedness gets Trump elected will be the ones who complain the loudest. Grant me the strength to bear witness to these fools without losing my goddamn mind...

I will take timorous over an utter madman any day. Biden cares about us. I believe that. Trump cares about Trump and no one else.

Ugh!! I hate it when I make typos! I'm an editor, for heaven's sake. That should be "I wish," not "I will."

Thank you for these reminders. Between dealing with ongoing grief over the death of my beloved partner, and my panic and rage over what's happening in the country, I've been feeling like I'm losing it. Focusing on work and other everyday stuff is crucial.

I'm not all that crazy about the 4th of July. Fireworks are pretty in a controlled area like a stadium, but being shot off all over the place by idiots causes fires and injuries and terrorizes animals. This year, more than ever, I will they'd just cancel the whole damn thing. 😔

Dictatorship. Full protection for the richest, whitest people and the rest of us can go fuck ourselves. That's the shorthand version.

Same here. It should have ended with "grab 'em by the p***y." Or when he mocked a disabled reporter.

Donald Trump raped a 13-year-old, then threw money at her and told her, if she got pregnant, to "get a fucking abortion." But sure, let's keep talking about how old Joe Biden is.

Thank you. Mighty Mouse was a cartoon. There is no hero swooping in to "save the day." We need to defeat Trump and supporting Biden is how it will be done.

I'm Erica, and I am supporting Joe Biden all the way.
He is a good man and cares about us. He has a great track record and he gets things done.
Plus, the alternative is unthinkable and terrifying.

I am all over the place. Yesterday, I was scared and anxious and cried all day. Today, I am fucking PISSED. Both are unpleasant and bad for my well being. But so is this entire shit show. I just need some hope so I won't lose my mind.

The worst part of this goddamn thing is that Biden is too good a man to do any of the shit that he could get away with now.

Thank you. I needed to see this today. I am so scared. My beloved was always voice of reason and calm, talking me off the metaphorical ledge when I was terrified about what's happening in this country. He passed away last year. Trying to be my own voice of reason is a lot harder.

Regarding the New York Times, the only thing I subscribe to is their daily word games -- Wordle, Spelling Bee, and Strands. That's it. They're not good for anything else.

Another time some jackass restaurant owner was bragging about how he won't allow anyone wearing a mask into his place. I said I hope his restaurant experiences a mass Covid epidemic and has to shut down.
