Sit-Ins have a long and dignified history. Not childish at all.

Vote in 2016. Vote in 2017. Vote in 2018. And after the census in 2020, you'd better goddamn vote.

Sotomayor’s dissent earlier this week, now this. Have we FINALLY reached a point where liberals will start standing firm for progressive issues again, rather than kowtowing to the Republican establishment EVERY SINGLE TIME?

Shameless motherfuckers. Democrats, please get out and vote, at the local, state, and federal level. Independents and those who don’t affiliate with any party, myself included, please do the same. There is no defense against what these maniacs are doing to our country.

Holy shit. People maybe aren’t backing down this time. I know the Senate vote got scuttled but this gives me hope that we won’t let this stand this time around.

I’m a big Bernie supporter and phonbanked for him and everything. But it does go against what he claimed to stand for. The people have spoken, now let us unite behind our actual candidate. He’s not serving anything but his own ego by staying in.

Absolutely. Sanders has never been the selfless deity his supporters wanted to beleive him to be. He's an ego driven political animal who wants to win because he wants to win. He always has been.

A million stars for this. No, a gazillion stars. You are right. This isn't the will of the people, this is ego and a career politician doing whatever it takes to keep his name in the press.

I was having a debate in step with this the other night. My main point is that it’s troubling that Sanders is continuing a campaign supposedly to exercise the will of the people, but the people have spoken and they didn’t pick him. To continue on with this just shows he’s not really that different from every other old…

Taxpayers.

I stumbled upon a small street corner memorial in Boystown (Chicago) on my evening walk with candles, flowers, rainbow flags, and signs. It always feels cathartic to know that we are not alone in this world and that our neighbors mourn with us. Someone even left a box of Kleenex that said “Take One” on the side.

This is incredibly beautiful and very moving. Eyes are getting misty reading it.

From the vigil tonight in Birmingham, AL. There were a few hundred people. Also note that this is the first time in history that city hall has displayed a rainbow flag on their property.

Remember, he’s not an athlete who made a mistake: he’s a criminal who can swim.

I found that story on Reddit and to my surprise most of the visible comments were supportive of the victim and anti-Brock. I’m sure tomorrow we’ll get a bunch of sports radio dudebros spewing hot takes that no one asked for to make up for it.

Finally someone has done the right thing.

Camping? If they are turning down camping over financial woes then either you’re doing the camping part wrong or they’re doing the ‘friend’ part wrong. I otherwise agree with your sentiment. It’s very frustrating to watch a friend be irresponsible with the finances. Especially if it has an impact on their ability to…

Wow. This. Very much this.

Whenever your friends suggest an activity that requires a lot of money being spent, suggest something else. If they want to go to a night club, suggest a movie night at home. If they want to go to a ball game, suggest a nice nature hike instead. If they want to go on a trip abroad, suggest spending a long weekend in…
