Gonna make you read my manuscript
If I'm being honest I'd frame it.
Imagine posing for a photographer friend who sells your image to iStock and a year later, you see this is what The Washington Post has done with the image of you walking on a beautiful fall day

Feels weird to be the last generation who had a living relative (well into my adulthood) who survived polio and fought in WWII.

Feels bad knowing those lessons were won in blood but won’t endure.

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

A fond memory I have of Italy was seeing The Rise of Skywalker in a packed cinema. The lights came on a little too early & everyone stood and jeered. I joked to my Italian friend "Guess I'm not the only one who hated the movie!" He replied "no, they're all angry about the movie too, not the lights."
The only Star Wars opinion about which I am dogmatic is that The Rise of Skywalker is the worst movie in the franchise & also the worst movie ever made. I've never hated a piece of art more.
i would push rogue one down and bring solo and the last jedi up. i’d also place attack of the clones at the bottom.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Senator, when you compromise on our healthcare, you are bartering with our literal lives.

And let there be no misunderstanding, we will fight for our lives. And there's a whole lot more of us than you.
If Republicans want to talk about long-term fixes to ACA affordability, Democrats are ready.

But in the meantime, doing nothing is derelict. People will go bankrupt, people will lose insurance, and people will get sicker.

Republicans cannot continue doing nothing.

Deadnaming, getting slurs shouted at you, these are horrors every trans person faces.

When we tried to do something about it, or even just got angry, Sarah McBride said we were being assholes or alienating voters or whatever quisling nonsense she was on about that week.

She has security; we don't.
