It’s 4am—still debating the Republicans’ billionaire tax giveaway.
We offered an amendment to say no tax cut for those making over $10m. Every Republican voted no.
So we tried $100m. Every Repub voted no.
So we tried $500m! Every Republican

Claiming that audiobooks aren’t “reading” is nonsense - you go on the same adventures, you learn the same things.

::Sigh:: Once more for the people in the back. If audiobooks don’t count as reading, then braille isn’t reading either. Stop gatekeeping literacy.
