Reading a book called Varney The Vampire and after like 90 pages a guy called Varney was introduced.
A main character suspects he's a vampire and I think he might be right.

All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

If Donald is going to refer to women reporters as “Piggy,” I vote that we should only ever refer to him as President Loser Shithead from henceforth.

Remember when Amazon held a sale during Independent Bookstore Day in an effort to undercut indie bookstores?
We didn’t forget. Support local bookstores during Small Business Saturday and beyond.

Donald Trump is a murderer. And he is proud of it. He is killing people openly. And getting his mouthpieces to de-sensitize people to it.

White House Criming Cheat Sheet
Committing crimes (if by White House or GOP): Turns out, NOT a crime, also pardonable for a price
Telling people not to commit crimes (if by Dems): Surprisingly, an unforgivable crime

I just got my dad some books for his birthday, instead of getting them on Amazon I picked them out at our local brick and mortar bookstore. Remember to shop local this holiday season.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

It is mind boggling to me that Riley Gaines and her ilk can say with their full chest that men are intrinsically better than women at any and all competitive activities, and somehow think that’s a feminist take.
The cognitive dissonance would divide a planet in half.

I can't stress enough that Black people in the US are less likely to believe untrue conspiracy theories than white people, not because Black people have more inherent discernment. That's not a real thing. There is no discernment gene.
It's because Black people are inoculated against US media lies.

Again, most of the "conspiracy theories" believed by Black folk that authors and researchers that say "Black and white US people are just as likely to believe in conspiracy theories!"🤡 cite... Have been proven to be true.
Believing that Tuskegee experiments happened, is not the same as medbeds.

Most of the major "conspiracies" believed by Black folk, turn out to be proven as fact decades later:
* The CIA is bringing drugs into the US
* The FBI is targeting civil rights leaders for harassmen...

Strangely unpopular opinion: having a spouse and children doesn’t preclude you from being a bad person.
Crappy people get married all the time and if you can reproduce the “conventional” way, it’s not like they put you through the Asshole Detector Test before they let you have a kid.
