Repeat after me:
POLICY IS MORE IMPORTANT than gender.
PROFICIENCY IS MORE IMPORTANT than color.
THE DESIRE TO WORK FOR THE PEOPLE IS MORE IMPORTANT than sexual preference or identity.
WE NEED LEADERS.
NOT token representatives.
Hey @Avalanche! My daughter is legally blind + loves hockey: she's @ the game tonight w/ 3 of her friends. She's in Sect 322, row 14, seats 13-15. She can't see a thing from up there but she's having a good time. Can you take her some merch ๐ make scene on the screen? โค๏ธ Dad.
@TheBaseballHut@MLBNetwork Keith was an elite defender but Todd was nearly his match. Mattingly is a distant third among the three in that category. Todd was better offensively than either Keith or Don, and that is irrefutable.
@MLBNetwork He was also egregiously underrated as a first baseman, almost entirely because of his small market. He should have had another two gold gloves... And he should have been NL MVP in 2000, period.
They turned to Trump because he's the truest representation of what the evangelical church actually worships: white patriarchal supremacy, rich by any means necessary. They're atheists aplenty & their religion is entirely material.
The modern evangelical movement has been very clear in their actions: no one is more disappointed in Jesus Christ than they are. He's a no-show socialist, who clearly has his priorities jacked by an overdeveloped sense of humanist equity.
100% this. Someone thought they had the photographer at "but all you do is push a button, bro." These are the same people that don't understand why the moon is so small on their iPhone... And why there are no stars in photos of our oblate spheroid planet.
Comparing the intricate skills of photography, which demand years of practice in mastering framing, lighting, timing, and post-processing, to someone with minimal artistic background simply instructing a sophisticated, derivative AI to create art at a mere command, seems quite an oversimplification.
@fuckyouiquit I just want people to be able to have a reasonably dignified existence. If ending tipping will do that, fantastic. The employers should be footing the bill for their employees. And they should view it as the investment Trey and Matt do.
We're sorry we called you on your blatant racism. Here's $25mil. We regret our actions and hope these reparations mitigate the trauma you so clearly endured.
What. The hell.
Remember when a barista called the cops on 2 Black men waiting for a colleague at a Philadelphia Starbucks?
So a White regional manager was fired over her handling of the incident, sued Starbucks claiming reverse racism, and was just awarded $25 million.

Retail work is FUCKING toxic, my friends.
So, when you read about Starbucks workers unionizing, SUPPORT them. They need it.
When you hear about workers walking out because of unsafe/toxic conditions, BELIEVE them.
4/4
Agreed. Stars don't give an accurate picture, ever. And anyone caught attempting to bully or berate a guest via backchannels bullshit should be sanctioned and forced to partial refund.
It's crass how the liberal wing can't take criticism, can't understand where their continued kowtowing to their own version of the donor and corporatist class, assisting in the destruction of unions over the decades, has contributed to the grand American dissonance & disparity.
This is why leftists and progressives refuse to associate themselves with the word "liberal." This liberal attitude of zero self-awareness, zero accountability demanded, total deflection, blaming the little people, gaslighting all the way to the bank.
I just couldn't bring myself to support Hillary Clinton in 2016. The loss of affirmative action and reproductive rights is a small price to pay when weighed against my status as an interesting person who says cool stuff like "I can only vote my conscience."
Who said "Yes We Can!" While simultaneously responding with "Actually, we can't." Didn't fight hard enough for judges, supreme or otherwise, didn't codify Roe, refused to defend and properly fund public education, using cultural bones like gay marriage as temporary patches?
Really depressing to find out about peach cobbler @PopTartsUS after they're already discontinued. Never saw them in CO, that's for sure. Sigh. I still have the raspberry. I guess.
