It's a midemeanor to be undocumented. Bribes are a felony.
I cited actual Kirk quotes where he calls Black women less intelligent, demonizes me for being Muslim, & dehumanizes LGBTQ people—& his supporters are upset at me for “speaking evil of the dead.”
If quoting him is “speaking evil” maybe ask yourself why you followed someone who believed evil things.
I know none of this is funny and I’m not sure what wall I’ve hit where I’m resorting to jokes, but I swear “Chipocolypse Now” sounds like something chips ahoy or the Keebler elves gave us in the 80s
Pretty little Miss Daisy looking sweet and waiting for treats.

You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger and you don't mess around with the menswear guy.
Next month’s job numbers are the street you grew up on and the last thing you ate.
My partner just uttered the most loving words a person can utter:
“You have too many books. They’re all over the place.
I’m gonna buy you a new bookcase.”
He’s a good man Savannah, a GOOD MAN.
What if instead of gutting Medicaid and food assistance, America provided universal healthcare for everyone?

Violent crime in Baltimore has PLUMMETED to historic lows
How did the city do it?
Baltimore adopted a comprehensive set of "woke" policies, treating violence as a public health issue
Celebrating our country’s independence from a monarchy given the state of things feels wrong. Like getting a Facebook birthday notification for a friend who’s dead.

Explain the Big Ugly budget bill to me like I’m five…

Why do people in Washington state deserve Medicaid & SNAP cuts, but others don't?
This is plain wrong, and it's just no way to legislate.
Hummingbird moths look like tiny flying lobsters!
It hits me the same way. Sigh.

If you hear about the war with Iran and Israel, knowing lots of innocent people will die, and you feel excitement because you think it means Jesus is about to rapture you to heaven, your theology is trash and you need to check your cold heart.
