Here are 7 reasons I favor audiobooks:
1. I can listen in environments where reading a book is impractical (in the dark, noisy room, yard work, eating, walking, etc)
2. The narrator adds to the reading experience. Especially if there's a "full cast" of readers.

If I was having a challenging day, I would say, l need to walk around with Adam the Woo for a bit. Never met him, but his calm was palpable. Rest in peace, my friend from afar.

I can’t wait for the day we start ripping out all that golden shit out of the White House and tearing his name off of every taxpayer funded building in the country.

I still remain completely enraged that Merrick Garland allowed literally all of this shit to happen.
We BEGGED him to move as if democracy was at stake, and he moved so slowly and so pitifully, it was as if he was hired to help that asshole get reelected.
I still seethe over it.

He is obviously compromised and should have been barred from office.
Same! I said it back in 2015.
Agree 💯......

In fact, why isn’t Congress held to the least affordable, approved plans?
We all deserve the same healthcare we provide to Congress…

Because having a corrupt president is not the real problem.
If we can't even get rid of this president, who is clearly criminally insane, how in the world will we deal with the next one?

All legislators, etc., claim that the ACA is the problem and a mess. Not true. The problem with rising insurance premiums is rising health care costs. Plain and simple. In fact the ACA was the brainchild of the Heritage Foundation in 90s w/17 GOP Senators endorsing. Then Romney implemented it in MA.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

All of this! Great post-race comments.
The good news:
1) Aftyn Behn moved a ruby red district 12 points more blue.
2) She can and should run again in the midterm election.
3) With real investment and good candidates, every R+ 7 or less seat is now in play.
The bad news:
Rural white voters are still the absolute worst.

Exactly, just because she has 30 days, doesn't mean she needs to take 30 days. And 30 days of news cycle can be devastating to a mass outcry. And they know it.
Where are the Epstein files????? Why are you people letting the asshat distract??? 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

I won’t be spending a dime at Target, Home Depot or Amazon this week.
Target is a no-go zone for me. I fully received the message when they told me my money wasn’t shit to them.
Home Depot is DEAD to me too. Sicking ICE on peaceful productive workers turns my stomach.
And Amazon. Well
