I still think all the states that actually contribute money to the economy should escrow that shit to Switzerland instead of giving it to the federal government right now.

The best part of my life is that I go to places and they give me pride flags. For no reason.

RIP, Sly. Thanks for music that was always a shot in the arm and a reminder of our humanity.

I'm aware of that. By a much slimmer margin (less than a percentage point) than in all the other swing states that he won, however.

#GFM has a new (to me) toggle that sets smaller goals toward your actual goal. you might input that you want to raise $5k, but it will set your 1st goal at $1800. once you hit it, it ups it again, & so on and so forth. just FYI for anyone who hasn't used GFM in a bit. ours: donate if you can.

Losing Nikki Giovanni and Dorothy Allison so close together just tells me we also lost some incredible anonymous queer woman poet/quiet somewhere in-between. Because 3s.
