    Why not use the Republican Party office in Philly? THERE’S A FENCED IN PARKING LOT RIGHT NEXT TO THEIR OFFICES

    It was a logistical fuckup by the chief executive of the United States and Commander in Chief. Once again proving that the republicans couldn’t organize a 1 car parade in their own drive way. And proving their supporters don’t care bout anything but saying fuckyou to everyone who has achieved a better life

    I didn't . . . what? Post a map showing the following four businesses between the landscaping place and the porn shop?

    National Carbide Saw
    MOW Saw Services Center
    TMW Associate window treatments
    Nowmos Auto Collision

    What heyabbott said. You want to be closeted? That's fine. You want to be out? That's fine. You can't have it both ways. You want to be you but you also want to cater to the very people who would bury you at the crossroads for being you.

    Fanny Flagg painted one of the most accurate pictures of how small-town (and big city, really) ambient Protestant Southern culture works. There were layers of acceptance and knowledge that was never spoken. Bubba and Roy knew the hairdresser dated the church organist and they took trips to Memphis with the florist. Everyone knew why. Here's the thing. If Bubba and Roy wanted to sleep warm and keep certain anatomical features attended to, there'd better never be a hair on those heads harmed.

    Now. Here is why I loathe Lindsey and his ilk: It's visceral. It's unfair, and I'll cop to it. There is a subclass of people known as Hateful Queens and Dykes. They hate themselves, they hate anyone who is happy and out. They hate their friends, their family, and any allies they may have. They use these proud and out people as decoys and distractions to keep themselves safe. Point a finger, hiss some gossip, maybe even misquote the Bible. Someone gets hurt, someone gets assaulted, someone risks losing the life they've worked so hard to build.

    I'm happily straight*, although I have been mistaken for a lesbian.** I have no problem with those misapprehensions. However, I hate it with the heat of a thousand suns when some pissy jerk decides to weaponize them.



    *Guys, I love y'all, but oh my goodness, some of you make everything harder than it should be. We won't even talk about your insistence on talking after sex.
    **Sister Carrie Fisher refers to this as being "an unsuccessful heterosexual."

    That you did.

    While claiming it was four buildings.

    They lost, there's nothing to dispute.
    These are just the final spasms of the fish when you bring it up on the dock. Sometimes it even shits you, too.

    Trump's epic final spasms indeed.
