EPA civil servant here. I can’t speak to site visits but it won’t surprise anyone here to know how embarrased we all are by these rude, antagonistic, self-serving political appointees speaking on our behalf. We are doing what we can to protect human health and the environment, despite being silenced and spoken for by…

I hate that he has to see a rise in Nazism again. I feel like we’ve let him down. I thought we’d promised never again.

I am, admittedly, a bit of a Luddite. The thought of a world with machines that kill and artificial intelligence scares the living shit out of me. But at times like these, I truly wish that there were a device that could transport me directly to your location so that I could kick you in the penis.

...I evacuated today. It’s a possibility I will go home to nothing and that my friends and coworkers who are sheltering in place will suffer because we weren’t allowed time off work to prepare. This entire thread is like a slap in the face. My students are probably terrified right now because most of them can’t afford…

“It’s goooooooooone...”

This has made me laugh over and over again. Mishka and Laika arguing over a toy:

I’m a medical writer and my job is to submit regulatory documents to the FDA. People, the FDA exists for a reason. The number of vulnerable, dying people who may now be actively harmed or outright killed by con men selling toxic snake oils just went up in a big, big way.

May I point to a document that will brighten your day?

A request to the Jezebel/ The Slot staff: can we start seeing profiles of potential congressional or presidential candidates that can actually turn this sinking ship around in 2018 and 2020? I, like I’m sure many others, am getting just numb and depressed as hell by the barrage of #barfbags coming from the West Wing -…

*good vibes your way*

Senator Luther Strange, who at 6 feet 9 inches, is the tallest member of the Senate.

No. I don’t care how much the guy sucks, I wouldn’t wish glioblastoma on anyone. It took my grandmother in six months and it’s awful.

The fact that no Republicans care about this, and refuse to denounce it, let alone sign on for criminal prosecution or impeachment proceedings, makes me very uneasy. The way Cheetolini’s lawyers and little Benedict Donald’s lawyers continue to sign off on these stories that continually go from bad to worse, whilst…

If the son’s a twit, you must acquit!

What is wrong with the world that even when you are a famous and talented actress letting anyone know you’re ill could potentially ruin your career.

I try not to look at him.

The best part about this tweet is that Trump heard on TV that he was watching too much TV.

If I hear “nothing burger” one more time, I won’t be responsible for my actions.

You’re welcome! :D I find having a conversation one of the greatest joys in life. I don’t care who you are or what you stand for, if you have a view on a subject at hand, I want to know it and talk about it. Who knows, I may learn something new, you may learn something new. Either way, it’s an open channel of…

“The south will rise a-”*BANG* “-AAAARGGGHH!”
