@governor.ca.gov Governor Newsom, given the abject failure of GOP transphobia tonight to get them absolutely any success whatsoever with voters, will you be reconsidering your policy of throwing transgender Californians under the bus to further your political ambitions?

"Trump tore down the White House without permission" is even easier to understand than "No Kings"
Not enough of you believe me right now, but "Rebuild The White House" is going to become one of the most popular slogans in American political history

What The Hell Is Going On, a thread:
I’ve seen some thinkpieces and posts about Portland protests that fail to understand the long-term hyperspecificity of Portland culture/humor, and frame it as a sort of shitposting meme-pilled ironic thing. Which is wrong.
So I’m gonna give you my breakdown.

As an Oxford Comma loving gal, the True Purpose of a paper dictionary in these times:
People who appreciate the intoxicating euphoria of reading from a real dictionary expertly hand-crafted by diligent human lexicographers.
Also. people who love the Oxford Comma more than some family members.
