Dear Democrats:

Many Americans (myself included) will be voting Democrat for the first time in our lives this November.

We’re not doing this because we agree with Democrats on policy; we’re doing it because we understand the need to stop Trump from destroying our Constitution.

If you see us non-Democrat Kamala supporters on Twitter espousing beliefs you disagree with, like on taxes or guns or whatever, try to let it go. Don’t be jerks. Don’t disparage and argue, expecting us to toe the Democrat line, because we won’t. We’re not Democrats. Being hostile to us will backfire and endanger our alliance.

We’ve made common cause with you in this election because our democracy faces an existential threat. We agree Trump is dangerous and we want to work with you to defeat him. Let’s be grateful for this mutual cooperation.

We can go back to arguing and being opponents after November. Until then, we have a country to save.

Still screwed. FedEx delivered to the wrong address but won't take responsibility, https://t.co/ZS9NQYSlxV won't take responsibility, and I'm out $100 for nothing. I'm absolutely disgusted by both of these big companies. Dishonest #Ruger has lost a long-time customer.

@FedEx @FedExHelp has lied to me two days running. Tracking says "we tried to deliver" btwn 5pm-8pm BUT I was on the front porch the whole damn time. They just crap all over residential customers. I won't order from companies that use FedEx any more. Talking to you #Ruger.

@DramaWarship Purely on aesthetics, number 6 gets my vote for its clean lines and proportions. Honorable Mention goes to no. 7 for rocking a strong bow and stern game.

RIP #CountFloyd.

@TheRestHistory Listening to this fascinating series put me in mind of The Relic Master by Christopher Buckley, a smart and hilarious novel skewering the notion of relics. Highly recommend!

-Gunther Steiner leaves, so drive to survive loses huge audience
- Horner gets more screen time, so drive to survive loses huge audience
- Netflix doesn’t like numbers
-drive to survive cancelled

The script is beautiful, thank you mother universe

Greatly beloved, indeed. Like so many, I grew up watching Rudy and Beryl explore our world, and was inspired to become an everyday naturalist. He was surely one of SC's most precious natural resources. #RudyMancke @SCETV @SCPublicRadio
