Massachusetts, amazingly enough

I saw this country was a dying empire in the 1990s when I was in high school. And then all the adults proved me right when they wasted time prosecuting a blowjob and then elected that goddamned moron Bush.

000

Yes but then they donated to Republicans! And that's how Republicans run things.

000

This needs to be made clear to all the idiots still voting for Republicans at all levels. I still see these goddamned fools parading around yelling "vote red!"

So, what does this mean? Do we buy bonds or not?

000

Especially Dersh's and Vance's Harvard and Yale -.-

I really just want to get some smart people back in office who will take all his money away through taxation and forced reparation of all the environmental and social harm he's caused. No more megamillionaires, please. No more listening to loser rich dudes partying with daddy's money.

I'd like to see the House hold some very public trainings on what is and is not acceptable behavior by superiors at work and how to deal with it and how to report it, and how anti-retaliatory laws work.

We need to vote in better people and make sure pensions and other benefits are removed from criminals.

He doesn't know anything about everything! He'll have someone look into that and get back to you, but in the meantime, would you like to see how well he can polish boots?

If we make them read this article, will they acknowledge that their tacky dust-catcher tchotchkes are political?

Sometimes it's ok to not share discoveries, lol

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

The Democrats running things in that party must be replaced. They have to be removed. We cannot have corporatists running anything. Join your local Democratic Town Committee and put pressure on the likely goddamn fools running the state party.

New Englander here, backing Canada. I don't really drink much, but maybe I'll go buy some Canadian whiskey. Looking forward to the day we can afford to come vacation there again. Standard Republican inflation has caused our salaries to not cover all the bills.

This is the one of the worst governments in this very bad timeline. -.-

I saw a town meeting video from a friend where some lady was complaining about the turtle crossing sign "ruining her property values" and wanting the turtles to cross elsewhere.

Please pet that dog for me! What a sweetie

"That's just how I've always done that." "OK, but what about reflecting upon your actions and their consequences?" "I don't like talking about politics."

Thank you for your service and dedication. Thank you for your honesty and openness. I am sharing your story with all the trans people and their families I know. I wish you all the best and hope we can once again be a country that promotes the best: dedicated, hard-working people like you.

I need her workout routine. I'd like to be that buff by the time I'm 74.

repercussions must involve eliminating all the megamillionaires/billionaires associated with social media platforms. Make them all just average in wealth. Use their money to provide healthcare and a sovereign wealth fund.

000

Yep. And what the hell does the Democratic party stand for, mah dude? What are you DOING? Where are your PLANS? How are you holding YOURSELF accountable for getting us here?

Can't the idiots running his Navy just tell the demented old fool that they're "doing a study" and it'll be done "soon", maybe in "about two months" or something?

000

what's the cost going to be to remove all this tacky trash and his ugly name from all this stuff?

021

True. But also, if you can commit and get away with "white collar" crimes just because the system and its laws were designed by and for rich people, isn't it just as bad? If poor people are dying in larger numbers and suffering, when do we take down the system and rebuild better?

These people are all just really weird

Notice how the disgraced uniformed mob behind him doesn't get up and leave at that.

So concerned. She'll write a sternly worded letter and say ICE will learn their lesson and likely be reelected because some folks don't learn their lessons.

And about the Rule of 7 ... that's what we used to use the internet for: researching stuff. But it's broken and you have to go to page 8 before you get past the auto-generated "blogs" and "websites" called things like "thethingyousearchedexperts.com."

And the dumbass influencer videos and posts that show up pretending to be people I know and care about? They make me boycott the products. It's like all that MLM garbage. No, I don't want to buy your dumbass cookware, even if it is a "fundraiser" for the local animal shelter. I'll send them $10.

Marketing is a terrible profession. I hate all the cookies, so if I go price check something I will buy when I have enough money, when it's on sale, and when my existing things are worn out, but get "OMG FLASH SALE ENDS IN 5 HOURS," I will, out of spite, go buy it somewhere else.

Conservative feminism is an oxymoron

No, keep beating him up. He hasn't learned the lesson yet and people keep hiring him. We need to remove the types who hire the Douthats of the world.

Religion is the root of most problems in society. It's the patriarchy. The patriarchy lies, cheats and steals to maintain power. Religion is a tool of the patriarchy, and has been for millennia. There are no gods, only pretty messages mixed in with a whole lot of garbage and some farming stats.

When a person is old, they can understand (sometimes, not always, hello, adult children of parents with dementia) that a few extra months or years of life brings benefits. An animal can. not. It is in pain and is miserable. Let it go, humanely and quietly. It's heartbreakingly necessary.
