You sure as hell don’t sound like it, progress is about helping people not fucking everyone else over out of spite.

He wasn’t just running - don’t make it sound like he was casually jogging by, once, and she freaked out. He was wandering around her street, including a side street, then went sprinting past - she also said he “seemed kind of off”, which you’ve just ignored, but which made her concerned.

Except you get to keep your all your income, you get to protect the environment like you want, you get to keep as many immigrants as you choose, and you have the 8th largest economy in the world, ample crop space, and ready access to shipping lanes.

Are you forgetting that California spawned Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and Proposition 6, among other treasures? It’s just not true that California has always been a bastion of progressive virtue. The Central Valley, Orange County, and San Diego are still as conservative as it comes. I have lots of family in CA (El…

Any part of the current United States can secede, but we’ll always be binded together

If you have an idea that will help African Americans in Trump’s America, I’m all for it. I had a plan. It was called, “Let’s all vote for Hillary,” but too many far-left folks decided that was against their personal morality.

Didn’t you just contradict yourself? If the US is too interconnected for there to be a Civil War if CA secedes then isn’t the US too interconnected for it to be in CA’s best interest to secede? I’m saying this as a Texan who thinks those fellow Texans who want Texas to secede are morons.

I get that there are a lot of problems with the police over reacting or reacting violently to people of colour and people who are mentally unwell (I’m not sure if it’s worth pointing out, that this man isn’t described as a POC, whereas Ravenclaw apparently is, and secondly came to no harm from the police). However, as…

And on the flip side, things won’t stay peaceful when the states that supply their water start storing it and using it for themselves because the regulations that apply between states no longer apply to the Californians down river.

If California secedes the first modern war over water won’t be in Israel after all.

I replied to you above but wanted to add this: Fuck everyone else’s judgement, your judgement is the only one that counts. If someone is acting weird around your house, call 911. If it happens again, let the police know that there’s something not right going on in your neighborhood, that you’re pregnant and you’re…

Didn’t realize this was a white people problem. Guess I’ll hand in my black card and go munch on kale.

No, that’s not how that works.

Or this empire is falling like every previous empire.

I’m sure the South had the same ambitious plans in 1861. And yet they got skullfucked when the worst things you had were shitty breach-loading rifles. And the same number of them as the U.S. government.

A more apt metaphor would be if your boyfriend constantly cheats on you, is constantly high, and doesn’t have a job......and has 49 kids that you provide for on your own, and there’s no more child protective services or a foster system because an orange tyrant defunded it, so if you leave and “cut your loses,” those…

You are either naive or a poor student of history.

Anyone else crying yet? I’m so fucking angry, and not a peep out of my country’s shitty unelected prime minister.

Tears of joy:

hello. i’ve been crying all day. this is so shitty. i have some cousins in a camp in syria and they were hoping they’d be able to get here but i guess not. i’m home alone, i’ve been crying on and off (the protesters at JFK really make me cry and i love them all). i’m cooking something to remind me of home and trying…
