Small peeve: Punditry (or GOP boosterism) that pretends Greenland would be the 51st state.
Of course it wouldn't. We bought the Virgin Islands from Denmark a century ago. More than 2x the population of Greenland. It's a territory, and its citizens don't have voting DC reps. Neither would Greenland.

Imagine your job consisting of the angriest people you've ever seen in your entire life yelling at you 24/7 and throwing bottles of piss in your car while you battle the subzero elements they don't even bat an eyelash about.

Remember that elections are held at the state/county level. The county clerk (an elected position) oversees and transmits the tallies. Voter suppression's true levers are things like removing access and intimidation. You can fight back by volunteering as poll workers, supporting voter rights orgs

There are lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to Nazi Germany and there are also lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to the post-1850 Fugitive Slave Act U.S. and it's *weird* how people respond with interest to the former but total confusion to the latter

A 1 yo with a bruised cheek is NOT ok. Not because she's incapable of giving herself that bruise, but because she was alone with amoral strangers and has no way of communicating her experience.
