Katie Porter had a right to be frustrated by that stupid question. No, she doesn’t need Republican votes to win. They are a minority in the state. Duh. She will govern for everyone, even when they dont vote for her. That’s what she said. Anyone spinning this as anything else can suck a lemon

Nonono, this is all wrong! Strike with the underside of the board, so that the wheels and trucks make contact. This concentrates the force of the strike

I’m horrified at Greta’s treatment by Israel. Absolutely heartbroken that such a wonderful person has had to endure such torture. The Palestinians she tried to help have had to endure much of the same suffering or worse. Free Palestine! Also, marry me, Greta
