@brat2381 I wish more people in Virginia paid attention to the local/state elections. I get how exhausting it is to be constantly voting, but jays it is frustrating when people only come out for the Presidential election.
POWERFUL: Deputy Wayne County Exec. Assad Turfe, the highest ranking Arab-American official in Michigan's largest county, shares why @KamalaHarris is the clear choice to end the war in Gaza, bring the hostages home, and treat all with dignity in the United States.
@RN_Atheist My old supervisor watches year round now that he is retired. Calls it his guilty pleasure. Nkvember/ December tend to have better feel good movies imo.
@afrosabi Yep. DADT, crappy as it was, gave so many people options at the time w/o specter of dishonorable discharge. I knew those who outed themselves b/c military was not for them, and others who stayed b/c they loved the military.
Vice President Harris: "I have a personal experience with caregiving. I remember being there for my mother when she was diagnosed with cancer. Cooking meals for her, taking her to her appointments. Trying to make her comfortable, figuring out which clothes were soft enough that they wouldn't irritate her. Telling her stories to try and make her laugh. I know caregiving is about dignity"

Come to think of it, denigrating the worth of a soldierβs service based on whether he deployed to a war zone isβ¦ kind of like denigrating the worth of a womanβs citizenship based on whether she happens to have children.
Well, I hope @MarkWarner plans on retiring ahead of 2026. If this is true, he just lost my vote. Iβll vote for any Dem that runs against him for that seat.
Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) is attempting to assemble a group of Democratic senators to ask Joe Biden to exit the presidential race, according to two people with direct knowledge of the effort. https://t.co/fyXjgqogNK
@afrosabi Homeless shelter, or check to see if a food pantry will take it. My local pantry tries to include critical/essential items like diapers or menstraul products since families.
If you're cheering the news that Iran sent drones and missiles directed at civilians in Israel, you're not "anti-war" or pro-human-rights. You're clearly just an antisemitic asshole exploiting the suffering of Palestinian civilians to cover up your hatred of Jewish people.
@afrosabi Itβs amazing the effort these twats put into their protests βsupportingβ Gaza/Palestine, but yet have made no similar efforts decrying the plight of Uyghurs, Rohingya, the Neur, Yazidis, etc.
@afrosabi Itβs amazing how having a dog forces you to be more social. Miss a day at the dogpark and both your dog & dogpark peeps will pass judgement.
