Raise the minimum wage to **$12**?? What decade is this?

It's pretty clear that candidates with a narrative do better than ones without, and there's just no consistent narrative here other than "I can read push polls."
Not just kids. Not just veterans. Not just disabled people. I want everyone to have food on their table and a roof over their heads.
Yes, I want my tax dollars going to feed and house people. Those are some of the best uses of my tax dollars, in fact.
The parallels between this era and the rise of religious schisms and wars, and nationalist tensions after the invention of the printing press, are quite stunning.
Perhaps the best antidote to the whole "51st state" madness is reminding MAGA folks that Canada has an entire French speaking section that will not give up their language over their dead bodies. Imagining someone saying "this is America, speak English" to a Quebecois is just downright hilarious.
Rufus Wainwright did both the "in only us command" that Chantal Kreviazuk did in the Canadian anthem, and dropped a few lines in French. While in the US. This American LOVES IT.🔥
Daira Smith-Rodriguez just dropped out so as to not enable Platner's election by splitting the field, so if he dropped out, she could jump back in.

Should be the political slam dunk of the century, and yet!
Tbh, in a better world, she'd have been the progressive darling in this race. Even before the tattoos and Reddit comments were exposed, Platner's main qualification over her seemed to be that he was a cishet male and she isn't.
It's truly beyond parody.
I think it's "too long; didn't read, I'm neurodiverse"?
Yup, that's it! With nc nc presumably being "non-consensual non-con"
I got all of this and now want to run into the sea 💀
......I understood all of it 💀
I didn't enjoy my male puberty, does that mean I don't qualify under his definition?
100%. She was smart to ditch Platner the second those Reddit posts came out.
Just drop out. You got caught knowingly having a Nazi tattoo and only covered it up (with another suspicious symbol!) after getting caught.

Btw, the Marines fought *against* the Nazis back in the day. They sure as hell didn't tattoo Nazi symbols on themselves.
I know that hypermasculine rural-coded guys are electorally advantageous right now, but I hate hate hate how every jacked up guy with a beard who claims to be progressive becomes an internet darling, while the women, PoC, and queer people who have been doing the work for years get overlooked.
A second Nazi tattoo has hit the building.

Yeah, Platner is done. Does not deserve the benefit of the doubt at this point. Cut bait with him and move on.
"Excuse me, ambulance driver? Could you take me to the ER on the other side of town? I paused my heart attack to do a quick price comparison, and it'll save my insurance company a few thousand dollars!"
There's some good stuff on Lucky Town! Though the album as a whole has never really come together for me. Human Touch was just a complete mess.

As a Springsteen fan who tries to forget that the two albums he made after getting married exist: I feel you, Swifties.

Heartbreaking: Musical artist is happily in love and is now making the worst music of their career.
Every so often, I flirt with the idea of using my mother's maiden name as my last name, but I can never quite justify the change. (Not that I need to? But I dunno, feels like too big a change.)
