If you had asked me back then which album would have staying power in my life, i wouldn't *necessarily* have picked this one (such was the bounty of the decade), but it turns out I come back to this one ALL THE TIME. Most recent replay: earlier this week. 😍
My favorite images and stats of the Hands Off protests are the ones coming out of Alaska
That's a lot of discarded dreams
Agree 100%. I've had this debate with ppl in comments sections saying shit like "was she just lying that whole time?" or "she's not stepping up" and it drives me crazy. She doesn't owe anyone anything, especially after giving 1000% of herself.
ME TOO!! I watch this video whenever I need a good laugh. Also the one of Tom Hardy and Riz Ahmed talking about British slang.
i had no idea this was a thing but apparently vocal fry is called the Millenial Yodel 💀

i enjoy – and, indeed, have come to rely on – your daily affirmations, but this one is an extra special treat. transcribing to my Notebook of Awesome immediately.
oh good! i stopped shopping there after their DEI betrayal and i was hoping they’d feel some hurt for being so spineless. good to know that that actually came to pass.

100% in agreement. Jasmine Crockett, too. but this thread was questioning where our former presidents are, and my point is that our active congresspeople should be doing the heavy lifting since that’s literally their jobs. and we the people should be doing the lifting, also.
it’s too bad you’re not a senator or a house rep or a local government official or a community activist. or maybe you are one of those things, i don’t know. but any of those areas could use your hostile fight energy right now.
False equivalency. Bernie is not a former president, he is an active member of the senate. And I would love to see more Dem senators do what he is doing because that is what they're there for. Ppl with an active role in govt should be *active* about it.
*unheeded. Stupid autocorrect.
unclear as to what you think our former presidents should be doing. Leading what, exactly? They don't currently hold a political office. If there is something that needs to be done, it is incumbent upon us as individuals to mobilize, rather than waiting for saviors.
What are you expecting her to do, exactly? She's no longer vice president, she doesn't hold an elected position, she weilds no political power. She is now a private citizen. All her warnings during her campaign went unneeded by the majority. So what should she be doing that she hasn't already done?
Yes! Def remember that spot! So cool.
Oh I love[d] the Dum Dum Girls!! If I was local, I totally would have been there to hear your set.
That's just Hell trying to pull him in
They are still righteous as hell and not owning their role in all this. Jon Cooper posted something similar and the comments section was full of stubborn moral superiority.
It breaks my heart that this is happening again. My dad spent his early childhood in camp. My uncle was born there. And I can honestly say this affected them their entire lives.
as a person of mixed race, I’ve been mistaken for just about every brown nationality on the planet - and it has often been accompanied by hate. people see what they want to see. 2/
As a bougie brown girl newly-minted prepper, welcome to the apocalypse!
Added to the queue. Thank you!
when you feel like you’re drowning in the world's ever-escalating drama, just remember that the shima enaga exists so maybe things will be okay someday.
Cheers to the friends you can text after midnight and have a random convo with for no important reason at all. That's the kind of thing that makes life awesome.
