Captain Of The Struggle Bus

I'm the hero of this story I don't need to be saved

Taking jesters out of government was the biggest mistake we ever made. Every single person in any position of power should be followed around by someone who’s job is to insultingly point out the flaws in every single thing they say and do.

One silver lining of the election night on Tuesday is the amount of women of color in the U.S. Senate quadrupled with three big wins in California, Illinois and Nevada. Their bios are seriously impressive.

How you know you've recovered

When you hit a low, you don’t look for the things to make it worse. You look for the things to make it better.

Sorry but we’re too busy building a castle from all the threw at us.

Just as ‘08 and ‘12 Obama “evolved” on marriage equality, Hillary has recently been “evolving” on issues like TPP, student loans, & BlackLivesMatter.  Not all there yet, but a start. 

Trump wants trickle down economics, a reinstatement of stop and frisk, and conservative SCOTUS nominations to reverse our progress. He will not “evolve” for us no matter how much we lobby. 

I know we all want and deserve more progress. Many young voters want to sit out unless a candidate has it all. Voter silence is a mistake that will hurt us. Staying home won’t “revolutionize the system.” The system is used to youth voter apathy. They ignore us because we won’t pressure them. 

We have to use our voices, vote for the person most likely to listen, & shout & lobby till we achieve our goals. Please. It works. Apathy doesn’t. #Hillary2016 to protect our progress from Trump. #Hillary2016 so the person we lobby for the next 4 years might actually listen. It does seem like she’s starting to, or we wouldn’t have seen this:

so apparently “asexual reproduction” is no longer the preferred scientific term, so if anyone makes a sponge joke or whatever just scream “IT’S AGAMETIC KNOW YOUR SCIENCE” and throw a textbook at them

The poison leaves bit by bit, not all at once. Be patient. You are healing.
