We tried. We tried so hard. I canvassed, texted, volunteered, convinced a non-voting friend, and promoted him to everyone who would listen.

I’m in the middle of that book right now! I never thought that a book about flouting regulations would be such a page-turner....

Aunt Lydia?

Unfortunately, they really do see it that way. You do anything the state deems is a crime, and you’re a subhuman with no rights. That’s why they reject prison reform and rehabiliation, too.

I’ve been out canvassing for both Gillum and Amendment 4 over the past few weeks, and it’s a mixed bag. Everyone I talk to about it likes the idea but had no idea it was a ballot initiative, and on these, abstention is the same as a no vote. 40% of black men under 35 can’t vote here, thanks to Rick Scott, and he wants…

When it comes to discussion, I’ll say that I want the usual, reasonable things. And I do! Universal background check, assault weapons bans, limits on magazine capacity, mandatory training.

Bermuda short are 1000x better than the usual way too short, ride up in your crotch, chub-rub-even-if-you’re-thin variety. I’ll be thrilled if they come back into fashion #fightme

I avoid leather (as a vegetarian), but isn’t it at least a by-product of the meat industry? If I need to wear/use leather for some reason, I can at least console myself that the animal would have died anyways and as much of it as possible is being used. There’s really no such justification for fur, since even rabbits…

Poor Toad! I was thinking she meant Goombas, and I’m much more ok with that,

I’ve been asking myself the same question. There’s so little entertainment my bf and I both like, and I’m trying not to let this fucker ruin it....

I’m torn between “I’m a terrible person” and “It wouldn’t really be a loss”.

I live in Tallahassee, and follow the races closely. The reason Gillum won is that Democratic POC in Jacksonville turned out and Duvall county went for him. Jacksonville is full of Trump-loving rednecks, but there are actually more registered Dems there than Republicans. POC in this state are turning out and turning…

There’s a ton of crossover between Spanish and Italian names, and darker Italians with the more Mediterranean look (as opposed to Northern Italians, closer to French and Austrian than North African) are often confused for Greeks, Arabs, or Latin@s. But Sicily was founded by the Greeks, and the Roman Empire’s mixing…

A white cop who killed an unarmed black man with no trial has the sheer fucking chutzpah to complain that a LYNCH MOB came after HER?!

I thought it was Ambien that made people racist? Or is that only at 3am?
