U.S. Politics

Love seeing the turnout and how peaceful it was. I'm sure it did happen, but I haven't heard of a single arrest; I know there were none here in NY, if the news is to be believed, anyway. Is the 3.5% rule is real, then Imma need that 1.5% to hurry the heck on up. Don't know what else it'll take at this point.

The Trump administration’s policies on illegal and legal immigration would reduce the projected number of workers in the United States by 6.8 million by 2028 and by 15.7 million by 2035 and lower the annual rate of economic growth by almost one-third, harming U.S. living standards
A third! I'm so fucking sick of racists, man.
 
Always cool to see people living their unique and beautiful truth. Like cops that just cannot wait to get a big dick in the back of their car.
"Fuck, fine, if I let you put your hands on the big dick with me, will you shut up already?"
"Yeah, but Wilkinson says he's never grabbed such a big dick either."
"Wilkinson can lift the balls!"
 
Bravo. Top shelf joke.
Back in high school, there was a program between the elementary school and high school where before the big social dances, we would get cards from elementary kids telling us to don't drink and smoke and have sex.

I don't think they had information on you. It was just your name. But my senior prom card was amazing.

I had this girl in the fourth grade who wrote an illustrated a gatefold card.

It implored me and my potential date not to go to prom just to have sex and drink and do drugs. She offered up an illustrated list of alternate activities for us.

Among them:

Play Mario Kart.

Go to Walmart and look at toys

Go skateboarding.

Write her a song.

Very weird as a skateboarding punk kid.

But the cream was her number one suggestion on the countdown.

Give donuts to cops.

And then it showed me and my potential prom date in slightly more than stick figure form offering boxes of chocolate and pink glazed donuts to cartoon Lisa Frank pigs wearing blue shirts with a golden star sticker badge.

I think that kid's probably doing okay.

I have a dream today . . .

This will be the day when all of God’s children will be able to sing with new meaning. “My country, ’tis of
thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim’s pride, from
every mountain side, let freedom ring.” And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. So
let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty
mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. Let
freedom ring from the snowcapped Rockies of Colorado. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of
California.

But not only that. Let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom ring from Lookout
Mountain of Tennessee. Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi, from every
mountain side. Let freedom ring . . .

When we allow freedom to ring—when we let it ring from every city and every hamlet, from every state
and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white
men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the
old Negro spiritual, “Free at last, Free at last, Great God a-mighty, We are free at last.”
