We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

If you would have described the traits of hard core MAGAs and Trump ten years ago…. Those very same people would have called those people SNOWFLAKES.

Constantly whining, always the victim, always angry at everyone else.

Boom! New Orleans councilmember and Democrat Helena Moreno was elected the city's mayor yesterday. Born in Mexico, Moreno moved to the U.S. when she was 8 years old. In other news, fuck Donald Trump.

Left leg itched like crazy last night. Today, it's red, itchy, & my shin feels like a bone bruise, but I don't remember hurting it. This steroid injection has caused numerous severe reactions, like I've never experienced before. #Furdad
