I’m barely hanging on even though my news consumption is down by 95%.

That 5% is really painful.

I've reduced down to reading only, no TV news or political pods. I don't know that its down 95%, but what's left is still fucking brutal.

If, as Leavitt said, the mainstream press is increasingly irrelevant, it's because they aren't prepared to call her on her lies, won't, or can't, follow up on what she says, and are too afraid of losing access to challenge her. Maybe it's just as well if they are squeezed out for right-wing podcasters, as Leavitt and her friends can then spin their fantasies, and the rest of us can ignore the whole thing, knowing reality has left the building.

Thanks you guys. It has to be a Netflix day for me.

I agree with JoJo from Jerz.

“Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m just a glass half full kinda gal, but I am finding it really fucking hard to understand how all of you “he wants to be a dictator” Dems had months to figure out what to do if Mr. “I’m going to terminate the Constitution” came in and actually started terminating the motherfucking Constitution, and now it’s happening and the BEST you got is a “strongly worded letter”???

A fucking letter?”

Dems are getting close to collaborators these days.

Just let the tanks roll in. Viva la Demokracy.
