Proud to stand with the leaders raised with everything they needed to succeed in life, ironically unafraid to keep children born with nothing from getting a snack because "I didn't get help from the government, why should these kids?" I think. I don't know. Just guessing here.
15 GOP governors refuse to let impoverished families use a new federal summer program that grants $120 per child to buy food at grocery stores and farmers markets. Why?
Reynolds, Iowa: “Childhood obesity has become an epidemic.”
Pillen, Nebraska: “I don’t believe in welfare.”
It amazes me how different kids are. Our adult daughter talks to her mother at least once if not 2 to 3 times a day. Meanwhile, if my wife ever wants to talk to our son again, she'll have to hunt him down through the circles of hell just to get him to respond to a text or call.
The thing about book bans is it's not only saying they don't believe their kid is not smart enough to critically think, but the parent isn't either because they don't know how to talk about it and allow other points of view to exist.
And it's all just fucking sad.

Ha. A perfect example of when those who don't need the help of being "tolerated" get left off a list or event that tries to raise certain people up, and some of that majority feel sad and excluded and then don't feel one bit of irony when they act like whiny idiots about it.
So they say it’s “pride month” so I guess I can be proud to be straight then? If this month is about celebrating sexual preference, no exclusion. Diversity. Inclusion. Tolerance. Love.
Ever notice how some people immediately bristle at the sight of inclusion? The only thing the owners of this sign are intolerant of is intolerant people. And that's beautiful.
