Plenty of things to choose from. You could, for example,

-Exist while not being a bright shade of pink or orange

-Know basic math

-Love your neighbor

-Not live in fear of strawmen

-Demonstrate the most basic of critical thinking skills

-Dislike dictators

-Not care about what other people do in their bedroom

-Support access to medical care

-Want rich people to pay their dues

-Not be a complete tool

Any one of those things would be enough, but for maximum effect, I suggest doing all of them.

I just can't with this shit any more. For all intents and purposes, we have two parties in this country. One of them incites idiots to kill immigrants and gleefully admits doing so. The other party knows that immigrants are people. And somehow the headline ends up being ... this slop.

Because Democrats are apparently not enthusiastic enough about immigrants? Or maybe just because the media is vile and only cares about the media. Either way, this is awful reporting. Equating Republicans with Democrats on immigration in any way is astoundingly dishonest and the article fails in every possible way to justify the headline.

"Then it is settled," Elrond said at last. "You shall be the Squadron of the Ring."

You should have taken them to itty bitty claims court.

France is a Schengen country. There are no meaningful border controls. He could literally take public transport all the way back to the Russian border without ever pulling his ID out of his pocket. And he probably will.

Rest in Peace, Lt. Ogawa.

Nationalize every shred of infrastructure in the country. Corporations have proven time and time again that they're all too dogmatic and too authoritarian to successfully to run any kind of essential industry.

SMUD, the community owned electric utility that, ironically, serves Sacramento, is about half as expensive as PG&E, and on top of that they've never been convicted of manslaughter because they couldn't be arsed to inspect their infrastructure.

They're not at odds. Trump chickened out and now he wants to have a rally on Fox instead of the debate he previously agreed to.

Kamala's gonna be the impetus voters need to turn Texas blue and it ain't ever going back. Performative cruelty has no place in Texas or America.
