A computerized voice said “I am still working on it.” Call then disconnected. Still no tv channels. And this is why people don’t have cable anymore. No actual service from @Verizon even though I’ve been a Fios customer for 18 years.
We’re among the last people we know who still have old fashioned cable. All of our channels stopped working as we were watching a show. @Verizon advice was check connections, reboot… did all that. Called the support number, was on hold for 50 minutes (1/2)
Let’s kill this lie once and for all.
Voter fraud isn’t a crisis.
The real strategy is convincing you it is so they can make voting harder.
Fear is the tool.
Voter suppression is the goal.
The right to vote is a precious commodity.
Don’t let anyone strip you of that power.

"'For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison and did not take care of you?’ Then he will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me'" (Mt 25).
Being a lifelong Eagles fan means when the Eagles go up by 25 with 8 minutes left and a friend texts you congratulations on the victory, you respond “game isn’t over, anything can happen.” #GoBirds#FlyEaglesFly
I thought this would hurt more than 2016 but it doesn't.
That was a shock. This is just confirmation.
We now know that 2016 wasn't a fluke or an aberration, that this is what the majority wants: whiteness, patriarchy, nationalism, hatred, nihilism.
Whether I want to spend the rest of my life in such a place is something my mind isn't prepared to consider.
Right now, I just know that I'm seeing the nation with my eyes fully open and there is no mistaking what so many people I Ioved and once respected, actually value.
As heartbreaking as that is, I now know where they stand, and I know it's nowhere I want to be.
The single worst thing about Trump to me will always be how much he's changed people. I've watched friends and relatives become entirely new, worse people in the wake of his political rise. Like it's not merely that he's a terrible guy, it's that he's ruined people.
