SOMEBODY STOP HIM. PLEASE.

I will beat you with my cane. They/them. Old. Anti-fascist, pro-cats. Anti-MAGA, anti-GOP Oklahoman. Sometimes remarks don't fit nicely within the character limit. TV-MA language and frequent sports content--deal with it.

“The Supreme Court decided not to have a Christmas party for 12 straight years because the justices couldn’t agree on whether to invite the Court’s Black employees” is about as tidy an encapsulation of the Supreme Court’s whole deal as I can think of

This is solely meant to rile up an already agitated base of White Christian Nationalists bent on waging their own holy war against every other American of every colour and creed because "my God is better than yours," even though the Big Three Abrahamic faiths (Judaism, Islam, and Christianity)

Spoiler Alert: Bridget made it home.
THREAD.
