Transferring a well known goon back to HQ is not a change in direction.

Pulling 700 thugs out of Minnesota is not a change in direction.

A change in direction would be not asking for another $10 billion to help hire 10,000 new thugs.

A change in direction would be reallocating the $35 billion assigned last year to roughly doubling the federal prison capacity.

What we’re seeing this week is an attempt to save face until they get another 10 billion dollars to hire more goons.

Not _one_ thin dime.

"Johnson says no quick House vote to end partial shutdown, blames Democrats for their ICE demands"

GOOD! I hope they take all the money away from DHS in the revised bill. While they're at it - I hope they take away ALL the funds they want to use to revamp the Kennedy Center as well.

I'm sick of Dems not standing up to these clowns. They're killing and kidnapping your constituents. Nothing should get passed until that stops. NOTHING.

Johnson says no quick House vote to end partial shutdown, blames Democrats for their ICE demands

House Speaker Mike Johnson said Sunday it will be a few days before a government funding package comes up for a vote.

PBS News

Finally found a use for this dark pattern. Can we get this installed on all our lawmakers phones?

My message to Senators:

āThe correct amount of funding for not just ICE but the •entire Department of Homeland Security• is zero. ZERO. You heard me: the entire agency. Under current leadership, it is off the rails. It is dangerous. It it a menace.

ā€œMore trainingā€ is a pathetic non-answer; that just means more money. These murderers are trained; they are just monsters. Don’t say ā€œbetter oversight.ā€ Don’t say ā€œmore reforms.ā€ Pull the rug. Switch it off. • Shut • it • down • NOW •

If you have to shut down every airport in the country because the TSA budget is in there too, then you shut down every damned airport in the country. If you have to shut down the federal government again, you shut it down. Your inaction is sleepwalking the country into civil war. SHUT. IT. DOWN.āž

Ok tangential, but lemme tell you my idea for a one person play:

I come out before the show and schmooze, telling random tangential stories.

For an hour.

Then, ā€œOops! Alright folks, without further adoā€”ā€œ

*curtain drop*

…

I poke my head around the curtains… ā€œoops, the crew is telling me we’re late for an intermission. Just chill for like ten minutes, no worries.ā€

Then I come back and do ā€œHamlet in 60-secondsā€

The end.

It’s called ā€œAnticiā€

Alt title: ā€œI have ADHD, would you like some?ā€

#WritersCoffeeClub 25. What comes first: setting, character, plot? What comes next?

1. Extremely rough/partial plot idea

2. Vague notion of a character or two.

3. Dialogue!

4. Dialogue begets character depth.

5. Plot and characters develop each other as I go.

6. Oh yeah, gotta go back and make motivations make sense outside my head.

7. Oops, visuals? Sounds! Smells!

8. EMOTE, YE SCURVY DOGS!

9. Okay, okay, fine, description of the setti—

OOO, LOOK! SHINY NEW IDEA!

REJIGGER EVERYTHING!

I think my tolerance of something terrible happening to me personally once every five days in 2026 so far would be a lot better if I didn't have to deal with the fascism too.
