Just a little old disabled Southern Jewish woman who's into advocacy, genealogy, old movies, science, and bad puns. I also enjoy annoying Congressional fascists. Oh, and I created and wrote a comic for Charlton Neo back in the day.

“You know in the case where child abuse is fatal, obviously it’s not good for the child but it’s actually a benefit to society because there aren’t needs for government services and what not. Over the course of that child’s life.”
That's a quote from Alaska Republican Party​ member David Eastman as he explains the cost-benefit of abused children dying.

This is a political party without a soul or conscience.

Well, the whole family is down with COVID. We all feel pretty puny but as we've all had all our shots, we aren't likely to have the same issues as those who are not vaccinated.

Just ride it out.

RIP David Crosby
Thanks for stopping by.

Insomnia is a pain but on the good side, I get a lot of reading and research done.

New West Virginia bill, SB 252 would define "obscene matter" as exposure to transgender people. It would make it a felony to share any content regarding transgender people with a minor. This is blatantly unconstitutional.

Conservatives in Missouri want to dictate whether women can show their bare shoulders. Honestly, some snowflakes can't handle seeing a woman in a shell top? How is this any different from Middle Eastern countries demanding women have a dress code? Missouri GOP​, we have serious issues to deal with and you waste time legislating women's apparel? Deal with your own personal insecurity issues and your need to control women with a therapist, not on the State House Floor!

Women with bare arms scare the devil out of Missouri Republicans, leading to dress code legislation

Missouri Republicans have run on and advocated for the right to have big, burly guns. Strap whatever you want on your side. Want to buy weaponry? Absolutely. You can run entire ads just based around you shooting a gun to try and get people to love you....

I’ve been writing about the right wing’s efforts for an #ArticleV convention for years. But this is the clearest description of what the #right plans to do. #Koch #libertarian #UtopianNightmare

My Week Inside a Right-Wing “Constitutional Defense” Training Camp

An on-the-ground report on the movement trying to rewrite the Constitution—and arm supporters along the way

The New Republic

Kevin McCarthy's fed the House GOP extremists pizza, Five Guys & promised them they will not be held responsible for their seditionist acts via the Ethics Committee. We're seeing a man willing to sacrifice the Constitution & the Ten Commandments in order to have a title that he has stripped of all power & dignity, just so he can claim to himself that he is worthy of the approval of traitors.

It's the most bizarre picture of stunted adolescence we have ever seen in American politics.

To all my friends and family from #HarlanKY, word has come down that Harlan Boys Choir director, David Davies has died.

For over 50 years, Mr. Davies was an essential part of music in Harlan. Saying he will be missed is like saying the sky is blue.

While we will grieve, we say thanks for having the benefit of his talent, teaching, and sense of humor for a lifetime and we rejoice that the heavenly choir just got a bit better.
