Splendidly efficient letter to the editor of the Washington Post criticizing their ruinously misdirected Trump coverage. Pass it on. #ThePressIsTheProblem

If you belong to the NRA, Wayne LaPierre stole from YOU -- for private jet, yacht trips

If you gave to We Build the Wall, Steve Bannon stole from YOU -- $1 million

If you're all in for MAGA, Donald Trump is stealing from YOU -- for his jet, his mansions

You've been CONNED

early in the pandemic i remember reading this comment from someone about how covid might traumatize us about their grandma who lived through the 1918 flu pandemic. they said that until her death she was always very worried about the flu and she would always make sure her house was very well ventilated by leaving windows or doors open

i fucking get it now. their grandma wasn't traumatized, their grandma knew it never went away even if people pretended it had, she knew that airborne respiratory viruses were really bad for you, and she knew ventilation helped keep them away from her

this poor woman, people treating her like she was traumatized and crazy all her life when *she knew* what was what better than most people
