Hey there, I’m American. Honestly it’s because a bunch of us are assholes. The whole middle* of the country has never seen a muslim before but finds them general terrifying and really thinks that the mexicans are coming to steel their jobs and rape their women. Trump repeated the racist drivel they heard on Fox News…

Because half of our country is comprised of sentient beings who care about others and the planet and the other half of our country is is comprised of unevolved, gun worshipping, women and minority hating, banjo plucking nitwits (their only redeeming quality is appreciating the lovely banjo instrument) who are…

Also as “punishment” by rednecks and hillbillies for subjecting them to the misery of a brilliant black man as president.

Cliff notes version:

Because our country was built on an ancient Indian burial ground and it’s finally coming back to haunt us.

I swear like a sailor. I curtailed it while my kids were younger but now they are teenagers, who the fuck cares?? My son swore the other day (mildly - like dammit) and my husband said “You shouldn’t swear” and my son laughed and said “Do you know who you’re married to?”

Sign spotted at London march:

I’m quite convinced that if you punched McConnell’s face, your arm would go right through it like a T1000 terminator.

It’s my “nuclear option.” I have, literally, only used this term in anger directed at a person twice in my entire life. If I break off a C word, shit has gotten cereal.

She dosen’t deserve your courtesy. She’s a collaborator and I will celebrate when she gets hers. She’s not a victim or being swindled.

Same. I save for the most deserving and then I savor it. Also: men can be cunts too! See McConnell, Mitch. As just one example.

I usually stay away from this term but I have reached my goddamn limit.
