"it's not nazi just fascist" is an excuse that literally only works on the truly dungbrained and the truly nazi
With another set of news headlines about political elites using “””Roman salutes””” I just want to note that the Nazi salute means “I want to murder your family” and the n-word means “I want to lynch you.” That’s what they mean, they make me righteously angry, and I won’t let anybody minimize them.

So today I've reposted/shared Teen Vogue and a quote from the 1979 Muppet Movie. What a weird day.

For the evening crowd - I forgot to mention: some 30-odd years after his tour, Dad had surgery to cut (yet more) shrapnel out of his back and legs. This was just before 9/11; he used to set off metal detectors in airports - and he was very, very glad that he had it removed when he did.
I don't get personal on main very often, but I spent a few hours writing this, and I want you to read it. It's about my dad and my stepmom, and me, and Stranger Things, and what's happening to the VA right now.
