That’s what my MIL said after a visit to France two summers ago. She said getting there is expensive af, but once you’re there, it’s much more affordable. She spent 20 euros on a steak meal & bottle of wine. You can’t even get a burger here for $20 lol.

What is there to like about the Dems? Not a backbone to be found! Nary a moral compass! Just 98% mealy-mouthed, feckless opportunists who throw entire constituencies under the bus to score political points with people who won’t even vote for them.

Labor has been stepping up more in my specific sector, but they’re tightening the purse strings as well. I can give more insights, but your DMs are closed.

Honestly, it’s been an absolute nightmare. Many have been “reevaluating their priorities” for almost 2 years. We lost our largest funder + other smaller funders, had to lay off staff, dipped into reserves, etc. Climate funders have almost completely evaporated or shifted to Asia. It’s fucking bleak.

IF Gavin Newsom is on a ballot

THEN me and many others will refuse to vote for him

THEREFORE instead of bitching at me and others like me

YOU should take the *years* you have and make sure that doesn't happen if you actually fucking care

BECAUSE my position is immutable

My wife & I love this show. I’m so glad AMC has given it 4 seasons. So many of my other faves lately have gotten 1 or maybe 2.

lol you’d think having an BA in English lit & MFA in creative writing would mean my list would be canon, but nope!

I thought the new format was refreshing & was pleasantly surprised that the majority of them did at least marginally okay. Only a handful of true flops. The previous 4 seasons or more have been atrocious, so I’m grading on a curve.

I have been trying to watch this damn movie in a theater since I was first targeted by it on Instagram (way back in the fall!). Now it’s finally released in the US, but do you think they’re saying where anywhere on the website? Nope! I just want to give them my money!

This has been happening for a year. Here in Spokane, they’ve been knocking on people’s doors & saying they think they hit the person’s car. Once people come outside to see if their car is ok, they get taken.

It’s so clear he’s filtering out anyone with opposing views, which is anti-democratic!
