I just know that we are all meant for so much more.
That’s what’s so frustrating. It’s knowing deep in your soul that this isn’t the way things are supposed to be. It was made this way. And just as it was made. It can be unmade.

Why are the country’s leaders so angry with this generation? You called us gifted & made us go to college so we could “go further” in life. A lot of us are first generation high school & college graduates.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine vetoed a measure that would have required public libraries throughout the state to segregate material related to sexual orientation or gender identity so they were not visible to patrons under 18.

Instead of starvation and snow, the concentration camps in the U.S. will feature starvation and snakes! Along with alligators, venomous insects, and poison ivy. No need to worry folks.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Are all Trumpers given a list of sound bites? Nancy Racist from South Carolina was just on NPR with the usual “illegals” and “murderers, r*pists, and p*hiles” line. She said it so fast that it has no meaning anymore. Then skirted past answering a question about Trump’s lawlessness.
