If you have to pay people to vote your way, it must be hard to comprehend people hating you for free.
The worst people in the world are like "They must be getting paid to hate me" when in reality everyone is happy to hate them for free

My wife is a stickler on expiration dates. Anything that is even one day past the date stamped is considered not usable. I would take her expired vitamins and use them up, or her old cold medicine. I always wonder just how long before they are actually ineffective.

No one should throw away medicine they shouldn't have to. Whether pharmacy or patient.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
