I used to make websites. I wrote “Design for Community.” I designed the original Blogger. I created JPG Magazine, Fray, Kvetch, Cute-Fight, and more.
Now I grow flowers and turn them into CBD products for milkbarn.farm.

I have opinions, too. Here are some: Biden has never been my preferred candidate but I voted for him last time because I’m a fucking adult and that’s how democracy works. Trump is a threat to everyone I love and if you don’t vote against him you’re part of the problem. And all dogs deserve pets.

If you think you know what Biden or the democrats should do right now, no you don’t. You have an opinion. Congratulations, everyone has opinions. Go pet a dog.

I am absolutely fucking done with people whining about exercises of power to stop the immediate bleeding being inadequate because they aren't The Ideal Longterm Solution. Holding out for The Ideal Longterm Solution while the fascists use the existing levers as a crowbar is what fucking got us here.

I don’t want to generalize too much but the place I see the most hope right now is from those that have been fighting the hardest for the longest time. Extended doomerism can be a luxury not afforded to those who have the most to lose.

Counted half a dozen “Fuck Biden” and “Trump 2024” flags between my home and the feed store today. The danger is real and it’s right next door.

Killing Chevron means the court can tell agencies what is and isn't allowed based on their whim. And now they rule that Presidents can do whatever they want as long as it's an official act. Who decides what's official? They do, of course. This is a coup by SCOTUS and the GOP.

There is plenty to criticize "the libs" about, including on the Supreme Court. But this specific problem *absolutely would have been avoided* if a handful more people had voted for the lesser evil in 2016, and it is flat out silly to claim otherwise.
