Yes! Exactly why I despise the obsessive "self-care is the only thing that matters!" trend.

He's also a raging, foaming at the mouth, rabid white supremacist, so there's that.

Shouldn't the tank's gun barrel be limp, for verisimilitude?

The NYT has completely lost any standing or credibility. As an instructor teaching college history, I used to tell my students that WaPo and the NYT were good primary sources. HA! Good enough to line a cat litter box now, maybe. And here's the thing: they both kiss his ass and he still hates them! πŸ˜†

Yes! It was so lovely today to look at the thousands of videos of the millions of like-minded people who know the truth of what's happening here. Hope-scrolling > doom-scrolling! ❀️‍πŸ”₯

Big brave cops, shackling a veteran and wheeling his walker behind them. Who the hell raised you, you disgusting cowards?

Agree with you but OTOH: They don't need to. Their followers still listen to a "news" channel that had to pay a three-quarters of a BILLION dollar fine for lying. Everything tmurp says is gospel. It's not about facts; it's about what they want to believe.

Such utter bullshit because the only people saying this are Fox News, Breitbart, etc. I've never heard a Democrat say anything like this about people who live in rural areas because many Democrats live there too, or are from rural areas originally.

Yup. The Cato Institute (NOT a bastion of leftist politics, folks) did a study that looked at fifty immigrants who've been sent to the El Salvador gulag, finding that they didn't have criminal records:

Or not. Look for tmurp to use Musk as his latest scapegoat: "Oh your (insert vital government service here) was insufficient/completely gone? It's Elon's fault!!" As if 47 didn't let the Musketeers loose in the first place, with the result being that our personal info is for sale on the dark web.

"Don't pretend you want love if what you truly want is safety." Love always risks loss; that's the beautiful mystery of it.

Good luck enforcing that. So far, the government cannot force people to shop at certain places. So far....

Of course a black man doing the same exact thing would've been shot 20 times within the first five seconds.

"Cattywampus?" "Could?!?" CNN, you've completely lost the thread. This creature is a grave danger to the security of every American and these are the mealy-mouthed, milquetoast words you use?!? Pathetic.

I miss being able to sleep at night. I miss not having a constant ball of anxiety in my guts. I miss feeling that we lived in a country populated with mostly decent human beings who would do the right thing when called upon. I miss being unafraid of the future.
