Katrina.

One thing to consider is that local authorities in Houston, including the mayor, were telling people to shelter in place...seriously.

I’m so glad everyone is safe but this shouldn’t have happened in the first place. The young, old and sick should’ve been evacuated right away.

I think this is an opportunity for privileged allies to step up and use of the leave time they never get around to using. The organizers also are encouraging people to participate for only part of the march - I expect there will be a lot of one day marchers, and even people who just join for a couple of miles while…

You can join at any point for as much or as little time as you wish. This isn’t a marathon you must begin and finish. It is an organic outpouring of love.

I know for a lot of these people will sign up to do a leg of the journey. So if they have Monday off they will walk from Charlottesville to Commonwealth, but maybe not join in for the rest of it.

This is amazing and so heartening to read. I hope the turnout is bigger than expected.

The Arpaio pardon is a trial balloon for pardoning Manafort for refusing the subpoena.

BTW, love how MAGA/Make America Great Again is used seriously as if it’s actual policy of governing philosophy, and that each Trump asshole seems to have a different definition.

I give Rachel and Bryan about the same time frame. Maybe 6 months tops.

What is the opposite of being shook?

Him: I’m not like other black people

Homie, they let 18 year olds serve.

True about NYC. Out here HELLA black people were voting for Bernie Sanders. At least the ones my age (late 20s/early 30s).

Dialects are...Different. Not diction, even though it’s a stand-off as well. But it’s the dialect that’s never mentioned. There’s the stereotypical “Surf Boy/Valley Girl” dialect. But there’s the ‘speed-up, I have nasal congestion’ version. I don’t know if any other VSBs or VSBs, who’ve heard it.

Wait no, really... I kept hearing shit like “black people are not impressed by Bernie Sanders” and I was like “literally every single black person I know is voting for Bernie Sanders. Literally every single one.”
