The legal max a person can donate to a candidate is $3300.

But, when billionaires like Miriam Adelson exploit our broken campaign finance laws to donate $100 million to a candidate, we’re no longer a democracy and it’s no longer an election — it’s an oligarchy and an auction.

If you are a Christian whose primary concern is to reduce abortions, you should vote for Kamala Harris.

Abortions have increased nationwide since Trump-appointed judges helped overturn Roe v. Wade, but research shows that abortion rates go down through comprehensive sex education, easy to access contraceptives, low-cost and high-quality pre/post natal care, and various poverty alleviation programs.

All of this is why abortion rates historically decrease under Democratic administrations and most likely will again under Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

how do yall deal w conservative family im so serious how do you keep your sanity

[mary @kitcatnala]

i constantly have to defend myself anytime my family talks about politics, i’m the ONLY leftist in the family and its exhausting and i just cannot talk about it w them. they all wanna have the SAME conversation and i refuse

[mary @kitcatnala]

i refuse to talk about politics w mu family for the sake of our relationship and my sister just texted me saying she hates that we can’t talk about politics bc she’s anxious abt the state of the world and wants to talk about it but like…. the reason she’s anxious is the chance

[mary @kitcatnala]

Academia is applying for a job, imagining the rest of your life in that job, then being immediately rejected from that job

[Shea Serrano @SheaSerrano]

absolutely insane to me that people are gonna walk into a voting booth and click the little box next to his name

[Wemby Central @WembyCentral]

The electoral college is the dumbest thing in all of politics.

Why is it that my vote counts less than someone else’s because of the population density of the state I live in?? That’s ridiculous lmao.

It’s not even like some small thing either. Voters in Wyoming count 3.57 times as much as voters in California. So dumb.

People will say “But Wyoming has barely anybody in it, so without the electoral college they wouldn’t get as much representation!” How is that a bad thing?? They get less representation because nobody fucking lives there. A states voting power should be directly proportional to the number of people it represents, because every person is equal.

it is beyond baffling how this race is competitive at all

@manek43509 @WayfairPricing @lethalrejection Pie-Sci is delicious, but it’s not detroit style pizza. Buddy’s is a city classic, and cloverleaf is also delicious you can’t go wrong with either for detroit pizza! If you’re staying IN detroit, I would definitely recommend buddys as I don’t think there’s a cloverleaf downtown

[mary @kitcatnala]

just yelled at one cat and the other cat thought SHE was in trouble :( no my little purrfect angel you’re never in trouble

[mary @kitcatnala]
