Well, if you've been a citizen for at least 7 years and are over 25 years old, maybe you should consider running for Congress.

It's not like they were asleep after celebrating a religious holiday and the dude set fire to the place.
Calm down.

Not too shabby for a part time gig.

Really.
I get it.

I didn't understand before, but I do now.
Look, I'm just some middle-aged, middle-class suburban lady.
I don't think too deeply about fuckall.
You, sir, have opened my eyes.
Thank you.

Yeah.
I get you.

Those junior members of Congress who are actually in it for the right reasons? Well, fuck em. They did it to themselves.

Cool cool.

175k for someone who is not already wealthy is not a lot of money if you are also expecting them to maintain two places of residence & pay off student loans.

There shouldn't be "alternative streams" of congressional income.
The salaries aren't the problem, *those* are.

I mean, I may push back a bit on the "good paying gig" part.

$175k in DC isn't that impressive, just ask Summer Lee.

There's a reason she has a roommate, while other congresspeople have, um, "alternate sources of income" or were to the manor born.

Please consider adding alt text to shared images. It will only increase your account's accessibility.

I cannot read that picture at all.
Thank you!

anyways, here’s a how and a why explainer for alt text.

the US government decided accessibility was “catering to the weak” as part of the MAHA eugenics agenda. don’t post like those fucking nazi pricks.

$10k in 2020/21 & 2025 here, & I'm not finished.

Implants aren't covered at all by insurance, dental or medical. And I needed bone grafts for the implants to work.

Fun all around.

The NT people I know are happy to leave me & mine TF alone.

The ND people, otoh, are those who happily visit their horrors upon us.
Obviously, not all of em

BUT

I got plenty of OCD-spectrummy-neurospicy folk who never dealt with their shit for _-*reasons*-_ & now their cPTSD is ALL our problem.

it is interesting to observe who is so desperate for a “reasonable” right wing interlocutor that they will ignore the hitlerite tendencies of a bunch of these people
