I almost bought a book on Amazon today, but then I went to eBay and got it slightly used for half the price. Boycotting Amazon is fun AND easy.

Fealty to Donald Trump will not spare you from his cruelty. It's strength — not weakness — that curbs his baser instincts. Now is the time for us to be strong.

Drained, Chester sat down and waited for the police to arrive. Staring at Alan’s still-warm body laying among the empty shells, he felt no remorse. There were two sacred rules. You didn’t touch another man’s wife, or another man’s nuts. His ears perked up as the sound of sirens rose in the distance.

Happy Wednesday to everyone who agrees that Republicans who voted to cut Medicaid and SNAP benefits to give billionaires a fucking tax cut should be hounded about it DAILY until they're voted out of office, every last one of them. CAN I GET AN AMEN?🙏
