right now a lot of guys who have led lives of trouble writing dementedly punctuated Missives to the Admiralty Court of their HOA and numbering papier-mâché DIY license plates with their own blood are realizing they could have instead just made friends with Harlan Crow

Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office. There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.

There are around 50 million children age 6-17 in this country. I'm not particularly good at math but does a couple hundred surgeries and maybe a few thousand kids on hormone therapy a year strike you as a particularly large percentage of 50 million? www.welcometohellworld.com/they-want-to...

Serious suggestion: ProPublica is doing great investigative work. They also partner with local outlets. For day-to-day coverage Mother Jones is another not-for-profit newsroom. Contributions to either are tax deductible.

Remember back in the 00s when conservatives complained all the time about “activist judges”

So SCOTUS is revealed to be comically corrupt and I guess the other branches just aren’t gonna really do anything about that?

I want a girl with a short skirt and a loooooooooong list of grievances against the CIA

In 2015 DeBoer wrote me to ask about restraining disabled children, to demand answers about when it might be ok. Given answers, he then of course never responded. I wrote about it here: www.davidmperry.com/restraint-fo...
