I played virtually every sport, and to a fiercely competitive degree, and also modeled.

“people don’t think it be like it be, but it do.”

This is our future, America. Unless we do eveything we can to get the republicans out of power.

Yep, and the example in the article of rolling your eyes to excuse yourself to call- Don’t agree to have dinner and then spend the entire time texting. It’s irritating and insulting.
