Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.
Fact-checkers working hard to keep up…

Good on you ladies.

Trump’s UN speech in 22 seconds: “I’ve been right about everything… I’m really good at this stuff… your countries are going to hell… I have the highest poll numbers I’ve ever had (not true)…”

🤔 @MarshaBlackburn: Trump is “draining the swamp” — she wants to make us “#1”?

She’ll make it worse

I will say, my visceral reaction to the Demon Slayer movie is pushing me to tighten up foundational things in my own writing this morning.
🤷🏼
I'm sorry Demon Slayer fans. I'm out. Ufotable does AMAZING visual work, but pacing and overtelling issues in the narrative have just taken me out of the joy.
Also the 3 movies being released to milk more money out of the series is just shitty business practice and exacerbate the pacing issues.
ICYMI — after following up his Islamophobia towards Zohran with some racism towards Jeffries (no TN media will ask him about), Pinocchiogles wrote a letter pushing for Trump to be added to Mt Rushmore… presumably for having the FBI investigation into him dropped?
Love you too. We exist and that is our resistance.
👇🏽The Tennessee hospitals @RepTimBurchett just put at risk by backing a cruel bill that cuts $1 TRILLION from Medicaid. Should they “get off their ass and get a job” too, #BumblinBurchett?
Most people on Medicaid have jobs (that don’t pay them enough): www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...
What do we do? How do we fight? We are screaming our rage and protesting across the nation. We will cast our votes in another year, but will we have a country left? They ignore the checks and balances we were told we're supposed to stop this mess.
I'm scared. I'm queer. My partner is hispanic.
Seems timely

A US citizen in the parking lot of a Home Depot was tackled to the ground, detained, locked up for 24 hours for filming ICE smashing a man’s window. He plans to sue. (From @keithboykin)
Rachel Maddow: “If Trump wasn’t getting the intelligence that Iran is on the verge of a nuclear weapon from the intelligence community… who is he getting it from? Israel?”
The right question.
And pretty obviously the right answer.
