A reminder that Trump used to terrorize teenage girls by barging into dressing rooms of pageants he owned. Some of the girls were 15 years old. He has admitted to this, and several victims are on record. Please RT.

You also have to wear a shirt in airports. And pants or shorts of some kind.
Get a grip, people. You don't have the absolute freedoms you pretend to have. Civilization works because we agree to sensible rules.
Masks during a global pandemic = sensible.
JUST IN: American Airlines is banning the passenger who was kicked off a flight after refusing to wear a face covering, as airlines step up enforcement of mandatory mask requirements.

When I was 19, I was pulled over by a cop because I didn't have an inspection sticker on my windshield. I was on my way home from community college. I wasn't breaking any law, wasn't speeding, didn't run a stop sign, didn't fail to indicate. Just a sticker missing.

Hey Writer. Yes, you.
Every now and then, forget about your career. The goals. The milestones.
Just tell yourself a story.
Create a new world full of interesting people doing interesting things.
Set your imagination free.
Write for the thrill of it.
Remember who you are.

My dad died this year, so any chance of redemption is lost. Now he's frozen in time and in my mind as a racist and misogynist who helped damn the country.
