But you know what’s the rub of it all, Mr. President? On top of not accepting an America that elected us, you cannot accept that we don’t fear you,either. You can’t accept that we will call your bluff & offer a positive vision for this country. And that’s what makes you seethe.

before memes existed people never had a socially acceptable and destigmatized way to say “i’m sad” to each other

Actually, it’s only existentialism if it comes from the existentialism region of France. Otherwise, it’s just sparkling anxiety.

as we all sit here listening to the tic tic tic of the war countdown clock, i am left thinking about how helpless the average citizen is to stop it, to hit the stop button, to call a time out, to evade the ending of human lives, thousands of lives, that's on the horizon.

If a person is working 40h/week & is paid so little that they need gov help to make ends meet, it’s not the person that’s a weight on our system - it’s the company. People need to be paid a living wage. We stand up to co’s that rely on food stamps to make up for their low wages.
