I’ve voted in Kansas from abroad! 🇺🇸 As a U.S. citizen overseas, I can email my ballot, but I must waive ballot privacy. One question asks whether non-citizens should be allowed to vote in Kansas. I see that as a slippery slope with serious implications. Thanks VoteFromAbroad!

I’ve seen Root Beer in several Spätis. Once I asked why it was stocked with the beer. The guy said, “Because it IS beer!” I explained it’s soda. He inspected the can for alcohol content, couldn’t find any, then concluded: “It MUST be in there. Otherwise, why call it beer?”

Most of my followers already know an understand this, but it never hurts to emphasize this and maybe those that share this post will reach people that need to grasp this very simple concept:

I think that if there is a single thing that
cis people should understand about
trans people is that we aren't trans
because we transition, we transition
because we are trans.

Stopping a trans person from
transitioning doesn't make them not
trans, it makes them miserable.

I spent time in Kansas, where checks of tornado sirens happen every Friday at 12. So I'm "used to it". But when I hear them here in Berlin, I think about what it must be like to live in a country like Iraq, Ukraine, the Emirates, etc, where sirens are daily business due to an aggressor. Scary shit.

Wouldn't it be weird if the racist billionaire who bankrolled and took credit for the neo-Nazi victory in Germany was somehow involved in American politics too? Can you even imagine? I bet the media would have a field day asking politicians who aligned with him and took his money for statements!

They failed to protect us. We asked if they'd reverse cuts to services that help us. They smiled and gave us a bench and a memorial tree instead. They couldn't protect those either.

I do not understand how a country full of people who are descended from the people who committed these atrocities can merrily waltz to the polls and vote in a party that has the same policy positions as the party that committed these crimes against humanity.

I feel that this is Netanyahu's war. Bibi wanted it. He pushed Trump to do it. The Epstein evidence of Trump's pedophilia was used against him to make it happen. Does Bibi have plans? Maybe an Israeli trade route to replace the Strait of Hormuz? This war is being "lost" because that is the plan.

When this nation’s first president chopped down one cherry tree, he was honest and contrite. When the current president chopped down a slew of cherry trees, he did so in violation of a court order—and didn’t give a shit.
