Unapologetic opinionated, but well-researched progressive policy wonk who will never, ever, kiss the ring. I also post about Philly sports, soccer, EVs, beer, running, dogs. No trolls/bots/DMs. Views expressed here are authentically mine and mine alone.

When we pay taxes, we are just filling up their piggy bank.

Dean, Blankenship, Phillips, and possibly Goedert all gone. AJ Brown surely gone soon as well. Feels very much like the sun is setting on the Eagles run of recent years. At least we got a Super Bowl title out of it. Still, what the heck Howie? @philadelphiaeagles.bsky.social

Because of the course the government funded by our taxes is their ATM.

The cult will now start using it regularly, I am sure. Remember β€œnucular” back in the day?

It was close to 70Β° in Dover yesterday. Clearly heavy winter coat and gloves weather. πŸ€₯

Gotta brag a little. Training for a half marathon in May. It will be my first in 8 years, after a variety of health and other challenges. But I’m building back. Younger me would be ashamed by my slow pace for 12 miles today but I’m psyched because I know I’m still getting better. #runsky

Weekend wind-down after the first truly spring-like day of the year. I ran 12 miles today so I earned this. Redwoods WCIPA from Commonwealth Brewing, Fairfax VA. #bskybeer

The swing state results looked so suspicious they were begging for closer examination. How did Gallego win his Senate race in a blowout over Lake, yet Arizona goes for Trump? Not buying it.

Like MAGA they seem to think letting it all burn down to the ground is the way to go. Lives lost or ruined in the process are just collateral damage. And then when there is nothing left at all, everyone will magically see the wisdom of their ways. It doesn’t work that way and it never has.

Yeah baseball players are maybe a hair less horrendous politically than hockey players.

These people have the dumbest theory of change. Actually more to the point, they don’t have one at all.

Phillies fan here, hoping Alvarado learned his lesson last year. He lost half a season, came back, got injured but it didn't matter because he was ineligible for post-season anyway which handicapped our bullpen.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

And yet she reviews every new DHS contract or action over $100K. Selective micromanagement.

They're just throwing crap against the wall to see what rationale sticks.

They. Have. No. Plan.

They just want to make sure all the rules are followed before they meekly go along with the war anyway and they can say β€œhey, we did all we could.”

If you live in the DMV, you are probably familiar with the β€œ13 seasons that we have here” meme. This weekend was Spring of Deception or Fool’s Spring; I forget which. Either way, tomorrow calls for snow again. πŸ™„

Sounds a lot like the situation in a certain country we just started a war with. .

Also Republicans: β€œand you better not criticize kicking the hornets nest, because that means you're not supporting all the people we have to send in now to kill the hornets!”

Agreed. But we will take care of that (hopefully) when he is up for his primary.

Fossil fuel and fascism go hand in hand. Fossils fuels keep us all weak and dependent whereas alternative energy gives us agency. And the powers that be can't have that.

Massie is no Democrat. He supported the SAVE Act.
