Morning all. A reminder that you have a civic duty to vote. You vote for You, your Family, Friends, Community, Town, County, State and Nation. Make it matter If you choose not to, well, you’ve just voted. Also polls should be treated as though they don’t exist.

Your vote counts. No matter how much the other side claims it doesn't. Not voting elects Republicans. Voting against a Dem elects Republicans. Don't be fucking stupid, Vote BLUE. #VivaHerAlliance #sheshed
"I Don't give a fuck if the news is reporting Dems are winning by a landslide" Your ass better still get to them polls! Don't get comfortable! VOTE

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

If we choose to stay with legacy fuels, the consumer will continue to be stuck with the bill. What @abdulelsayed.bsky.social said - our elected leaders should be progressive and evolutionary while working on the part of the people since they represent the people, not corporations.

It now costs the truck drivers on average $1,200 to fill up a single tank because of the war in Iran. Mike Rogers said it's a win-win-win. Are you winning?

If one is more concerned about a candidate’s religion instead of what they stand for and their policies, then maybe one is focused on the wrong metric and it might be time to look in the mirror and examine one’s prejudices.

Always lay your baby down to sleep on their back in a product designed for safe sleep.
A baby sitting in a catapult in a suburban backyard. The baby seems surprised to be there. The text reads: Is this a safe sleep environment for your baby? No! This is a catapult! Put your baby to sleep flat on their back in a crib, bassinet, play yard, bedside sleeper or other product designed for safe sleep. If your baby falls asleep in a car seat or other product not designed for sleep, move them to a safe sleep space.

I’d prefer to invest in diplomacy, domestic infrastructure plans, healthcare, childcare, and other programs that invest in my fellow citizens. Corporations and the wealthy should pay their fair share - because tax cuts aren’t helping us with our debt. And yeah, no more dumbass wars.

As I said in his confirmation hearing, the fundamental problem with Todd Blanche isn’t that he’s inexperienced or unintelligent. It’s that he’s never been able to shed his role as criminal defense lawyer for Donald Trump. He cannot and will never do it.
