Meanwhile, in Congress: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/586/text

A friend and I were joking about this. I said “Wow, if all these people are upset about a Nazi getting punched in the face, no one better tell them about WWII.”

1) Was at the Senate offices this morning with PP of Metro Washington. 2) They did not have enough room for us to go into the Price hearing. 3) Saw several people waiting on the EPA hearing leaving in handcuffs!

Half the time these stories make me want to go into law enforcement, in an effort to be a good cop, the other half makes me want to run far, far away and thinks that would be a terrible idea because I’m sure everyone around would be terrible and I would just get so burned out so quickly.

SORRY CHILD IF U WANTED TO EAT MOMMY SHOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN KNOCKED UP :( BOOTSTRAP I GUESS :( ugh also referring to unplanned children as “mistakes” THEY’RE HUMAN BEINGS. oh my god. No one should starve because of how they were conceived.

Politico did a very good article on how Trump is good for Netanyahu in the short run since he’s so pro-Israel but terrible in the long run because a) American Jews are becoming less supportive of Israel in public opinion and b) American Jews also do not like Donald Trump, because DUH guy is appointing white…

My first full time job out of college I had for about 10 months before leaving to go to grad school. 9 people left/were let go in that time period, in an office of 30ish people. I asked about turnover but I don’t think they were entirely honest or were purposely vague about it in the interview. Red flag.

I mean, ideally, everyone should be able to spot signs of abuse and list resources for help? “They’re not lawyers or social workers” okay but I don’t interact with ANY of those people in my every day life, and to be quite honest I don’t know how to even go about finding one. No one is asking hairstylists to counsel…

I still use Chase because switching banks is a hassle, and they had banks in the same city as my college and my hometown so it was convenient when I opened an account with them, but I opened a Discover checking account when I moved to a place with no Chase locations and I love them so far. Can still get cash without…

This was written when our country was just deciding “hey maybe we shouldn’t own people anymore.” Your interpretation I agree with however it ignores the large history of the US deciding who “citizens” and “persons” actually are.

I applied to a job once that wanted “strict attention to spelling and grammar” but had a massive grammatical error in it. I was unqualified but it irked me so I sent them a cover letter anyway pointing out it was a little rich to ask so much from their applicants when they couldn’t spell and grammar check their own…

Also, he clearly doesn’t know what fetal tissue consists of? Since there are no gestational limits? The theory is my mom miscarried a triplet when she was pregnant with my brother and me, and she just bled a lot. There’s no... fetus to bury. She went to the hospital because she was alarmed obviously but what would…

It’s on the southwest side. I grew up about 20 minutes away in the suburbs and it’s a heavily Catholic area.

The claim that 3rd parties “steal votes” is kind of dubious, in my opinion. Some part of the population is going to be dissatisfied with major party candidates, always, and they’re going to vote for someone else. There’s also going to be some Libertarian/Green loyalists that will vote for those parties no matter…

Newcomb* College.

I got a “campaign not found” screen which while disappointing is somehow still an appropriate punchline to Kellyanne Conway.

Even if you don’t think flag burning is speech, how is it not a property rights thing? If I bought a flag and it’s mine and it doesn’t hurt anyone, I should be able to light it on fire if I want. It’s my property. If I have a fire pit in my backyard what’s the difference if I throw a flag I paid for in there on top…

I had an acquaintance that stole traffic cones and kept them in her dorm room. The stop sign is the least weird thing about this photo.

“Draining the swamp” only to realize you need water to live. Oh yeah, the Obama administration was full of insiders because experience is how you actually get good at a job. We don’t do this stupid “outsider” garbage for any other field. An “outsider” doctor? An “outsider” lawyer? An “outsider” accountant? No.

“And my friends that know me couldn’t possibly be racist too, skewing what they think racism is!”
