I mean, Pelosi wants to re-institute PAYGO when they take over, so really I’m not counting on them doing literally anything right…
Otherwise known as ways I try to talk myself out of suicide because there is literally nothing worthwhile in this godforsaken shithole world.
I recently re-watched that movie and it was explicitly stated that Grandma Dynamite had a boyfriend (who she had been riding ATVs with when she broke her coccyx).
But then again it was her dumbass son Rico who made that claim, so it’s entirely possible he was just oblivious about the nature of her personal life.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Thomas was talking about mortality, but countries are born and die as well. I want the history books to show that, if nothing else, the country did not descend quietly into despotism. There were some who saw what was coming and fought it. Only time will tell if that fight was successful or not, but by damn I will go down swinging if go down I must.
Why stop at 11? And please make sure they are all under 40, so they can serve for decades.
That motherfucker is shook. If you snuck behind him right now and said “Boo!” he might just die.
Please, somebody. Anybody.
I don’t see the need to be scared of a pinch-pointer.
Once again, life imitates art, eh?
Hopefully Graham will be gone the next time his position comes up for election.
I just remembered something. Aren’t these all the same assholes who gave Sotomayor 3 days of bullshit over the phrase, “Wise Latina”?
