Mercy and I watched Hedda yesterday night and first of all, Tessa Thompson was amazing (seriously, I looked her up after the movie because I was like "wow I didn't know she was British?" because her accent was that good) and she had such Olde Hollywood glamour about her,

Pardon my suddenly watery eyes, but a long-time regular just stopped in with this.
He'd been reading, found this line, and thought of me, so he wrote it out and brought it in.

Vance has been harder on his wife than he is on the Hitler lover, who often refers to him as "fat boy" and his wife by a racial slur. Makes Ted Cruz look like Costner in The Bodyguard.
Vance shares a strange immunity with Trump.
The press cannot or will not pierce through his rhetoric to see the what-should-be-obvious danger of the man.
This includes:
1. Vance follows lots of neo-Nazis on X
2. His championing of Germany's far right
3. HE'S WELCOMING HITLER LOVERS INTO THE GOP

JD Vance now leads the GOP. And he wants the party to welcome Hitler lovers.
And the press refuses to reckon with what this means.

Big part of why I can't stand white collar jobs ranting about shit being 'anti-social'- if you haven't dealt with how much worse service workers have had it, you don't have the right to talk about what's appropriate or not!

as a society, we really should be hesitant to take anyone seriously who hasn't worked in a food service job or acknowledges that it is incredibly difficult

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Your current situation is temporary, even if it feels heavy in the moment, and it is not stronger than you.
You have faced difficult chapters before, and you made it through every single one. This will be no different.

This Veterans Day, I’m thinking of the millions of Americans who have served in uniform — and how our government is failing them right now.
Words aren’t enough, we need actions. Fund the VA. Fund mental healthcare. And end endless wars.
