Jesus Christ, this guy would rather institute fascism than let democrats bend the rules in an unprecedented situation.

Almost, democracy is still in its death throes

That’s exactly what she does. She’s a Russian plant who runs for president every four years despite not seeking any other political office.

You are assuming they have the luxury of getting a higher paying job. This requires two things

  1. Higher paying jobs exist and are available to them
  2. They can afford to not work until they land one of these jobs.

The first only works if there is a strong economy and employers are not cooperating to set a low “market price” which they have a strong incentive to do

The second only works if there is again a strong economy allowing for savings AND a strong social safety net / welfare system giving the freedom to not make a desperate choice of employment

Im gonna be real with you if this stuff had not occurred to you before now you should just stop having opinions on things.

For you or whoever needs to hear it don’t talk about crimes to web-hosted chat bots. They are not private.

I am going to resist in whatever way is available to me. Right now that means defending people in my community from ICE. If the situation around me does heat up to the point of armed conflict I know what side I will be on.

When someone intends to enslave or kill you, your family, or your friends. If they try to strip you of your rights and otherwise destroy your society and way of life, then killing them is not murder. It’s self defense.

I board as per usual without a hiccup on my flight from Denver to LA and I sit in my usual aisle seat. Waves of people walk past me for several minutes until the line trickles out and I realize that the doors are closed and I HAVE THE WHOLE ROW TO MYSELF!!

I am absolutely hyped this has never happened to me. I can fucking lay down in economy! Then I look across the aisle and my aisle buddy has a full row too! We high five everything is fucking fantastic.

Then the rub, I hear a guy two rows back ask for a new seat… I very literally prayed to a god I don’t believe in to spare me this night, and let me tell you god is real. I feel so bad for my aisle buddy though because the Kevin ended up sitting with him.

Let me tell you, reader, that is not all.

I set up my backpack as a pillow and chilled for a while before the drink cart came down. I figure I’m celebrating a big win so I decide to ask for a jack and coke for the first time on a flight. My flight attendant, this sweet sweet man, hands me TWO MINI JACK DANIELS AND A WHOLE CAN OF COKE FOR FREE!!! Do you hear what I am telling you??

I am fucking FLYING tonight bois. Not only do I get a whole row to my self despite all the odds, I also get two free drinks, AND IM CUTE!!! Fuck I feel good.
