War is that thing that's instigated by people who don't represent the people they are ostensibly fighting for. Most folks just want to live their goddamn lives and like, eat good bread and play with their kids. Why the fuck won't the disgusting men who rule the fucking world do this stuff?

I have a rainbow welcome sign outside my house. It says that we welcome all people. Over the last few weeks, there’s been people riding by and screaming “fuck your sign” and “get a new sign.” And last night my house got teepeed. It’s so fucking weird how mad some people get about other people’s kindness

Contrary to how McCarthy’s defenders are behaving, men failing up is not a Constitutionally protected right.
The man made risky decisions and faced the natural consequences of them. I am not his mom, and my job is not to put pool noodles around hard corners for Republicans.

I am begging. The English-speaking world. To look up the difference. Between "horde" and "hoard." BEFORE you publish the thing!

"No one is more military than me" says a man who has never served a day in his life in a room with several actual Veterans. Is he serious?
Well said, @senmarkkelly.
