I read your report. It’s very good. Thank you!

I know this is an obvious thing to say but we should talk more about what a racist this guy is. He’s as racist as George Wallace or Strom Thurmond but unlike them he often escapes having racism mentioned as a leading cause for all his decisions.

Reminder: Assume your government is lying until proved otherwise.

If the government or a media outlet uses the word "terrorist" to describe somebody, assume that they are lying until hard evidence proves otherwise.

The erosion of language in the service of totalitarianism continues apace. Defend the meanings of words.

A reminder that the likelihood of the words "terror," "terrorist," and related terms being used appropriately are next to nil. [Edit: also the word "rioter" and/or "riot."]

As an Indiana resident for 47 years, I'm one of those who are very happy that the Indiana senators had the moral courage to stand up to DJT and Gov. Braun and vote no on the bill to redistrict!

This means that 21 R senators joined the 10 D senators to oppose Trump and Braun. It's an important start!

Senate Republicans reject Trump's plea for gerrymandered maps • Indiana Capital Chronicle The Republican-dominated Indiana Senate voted 19-31 on Thursday against redrawing the state’s congressional districts — spurning months of demands from President Donald Trump. The final outcome remain...

As an Indiana resident for the last 47 years, I'm thrilled with this outcome. It's deeply surprising, and heartening, to me.

The vote ended up 31 against, only 19 senators for redistricting.

As expected, Craig Snow (my rep) voted to approve the bill. I'm unhappy about this. Note that not every R voted for the bill; ca. 10 or so did not. (Yes, we're an extremely red state already; the bill means that more than 30% of Indiana voters will have no representation if it passes the Senate.

Well, the Indiana House passed the mid-decade redistricting bill and sent it on to the Senate, today ca. 1:30 p.m. Here is the roll-call record on the vote in the House.

Dear foreign nationals in war-torn countries, terrorism hot-spots, and amidst our enemies:

If you help the United States, we’ll fuck you over and abandon you. Not the individual servicepeople or intelligence officers — they’ll fight for you. I mean the depraved, soulless leadership of the nation.

Last month, playing tape of Charlie Kirk's words was enough to get people fired for the new category of anti-Kirkist hate speech.

8/ At the time, and even since, I haven’t seen many older couples whose lives reflect that kind of connection—a valuation of, a love for, the whole person.

This anniversary, I’m deeply grateful that I have exactly that kind of relationship with my sweetie, Merna Eisenbraun.

7/ I don’t remember who they were, but that action had a large effect on me: I thought, “I hope to have a relationship such as that when I’m married and old—a relationship that retains significant affection and that continues to value touch."
