So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.

Is this true?

[mallninjacode-deactivated201812]

Not only is it true, it gets worse. The Susan G Komen For The Cure Foundation has actually successfully sued “competing” charities, because (paraphrasing) their “message or branding was infringing.”

You read that correctly: they took money that people had donated to cure cancer, and hired attorneys with it, to sue ANOTHER group of people trying to find a cure for cancer, who, in turn, had to us their donated money to hire their own legal counsel to defend themselves.

Sometimes sets can get a bit… wacky.  I once saw a version of Richard III that looked like it was set in some sort of post-apocalyptic England.  Trash and metal everywhere.  When characters were killed, they were thrown into a large dumpster with graffiti on it.  Someone had to sit in the dumpster to catch people.  Since it was onstage almost all the time, they couldn’t leave.  They created a twitter account and live tweeted from the dumpster.  And it was the best thing ever.

Never stop learning about your partner. Never lose that wonder that made you want to get to know them initially because we are constantly growing as individuals.

I think we should have more sexual education. Can you imagine if we didn’t have driver’s ed and people drove cars like they saw in the movies? Porn is adult entertainment, not education.

Good morning, loves.

Criticism of Hillary Clinton is great and all, but can we please stop talking like there is much of a choice involved.  She most likely will not have a serious democratic candidate running against her.  Elizabeth Warren is the only other democrat I can think of that would offer competition, but she isn't running.  It’s basically going to be Hillary against Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and other terrifying republican candidates who have yet to announce their presidential bid.

I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather have Hillary Clinton choosing a supreme court justice over Jeb Bush.  I’d rather she be making decisions about the Keystone Pipeline over Ted Cruz.

In the context of American imperialism and capitalism, republicans and democrats aren’t much different, but there is a big difference when it comes to social issues like health care, abortion rights, environmental policy, and taxes.  It’s a choice between the lesser of two evils and, to a large extent, that choice has already been made for us.  The only sources I could find arguing that this isn’t true are libertarian/Fox News blogs.

This is the nature of American politics.  You don’t have to like it.  You don’t have to agree with it.  We should be critical of her just as we should be critical of all politicians.  We should challenge the two party system.  Just remember that the system structures our choices.
