@StillIRise1963 ABSOLUTELY!!! Don't look at me, I vote for dog catcher, school boards, every election no matter how small. The viciously crazy types work their way into the system by going after those small elections that no one pays attention to. Sort of like getting termites only more destructive. The Women's League of Voters has a nifty one-stop-shop for figuring out what's going on in your area: https://www.vote411.org
When her colleagues and friends take away our rights and destroy democracy, Sonia Sotomayor is going to go in her office and cry. What are you going to do?🤔
After speaking with CVS🙄 , I’m on hold with my insurance company trying to get a prescription filled one week early since I’m leaving for a month. They want me to pick it up the day I’m off to the airport. NOPE. wtf.
@StillIRise1963 It's funny because there was this coded term that used to be used all the time, 'fiscally conservative' which sort of meant 'well I just don't want to get taxed much but I don't want to be associated with the racists' and then it became more and more clear that the racism was so incredibly baked into the fiscal stuff it could not be cleanly removed.
Even that got 'no true scottsmanned' though. Most of the right can't even see 'conservative' on a clear day, anymore, either.
@StillIRise1963 I think it’s funny that people have bought into the narrative that this pope is reforming the church. He’s not and never has been. He’s just into optics.
@StillIRise1963 So many modes, I think, of tension and release. And so much history to reach back upon. So much brilliance, and kindness, and commitment, and risk.
Way the fuck bigger and stronger and kinder than me. :)
