I’m so embarrassed to be an American right now. I mean, I have been for a while now, but today was the icing on the cake. Utterly classless. Fuck Trump and Vance.

Seems like a space version of Robin Hood in Sherwood Forest. Maybe we just intuitively know rebellions need to build out of sight and engage in guerrilla tactics until they’re ready to challenge the powers that be.

Please filibuster the hell out of every single bill. Stop allowing them to get away with this. You HAVE to throw a damn punch. Forget your reelection chances and start worrying about whether our democracy is going to dissolve before our very eyes. Now is the time.

Seriously, that’s freaking alarming. I cannot believe they thought that would go unnoticed.

Right? It’s crazy. I’m never mean to telemarketers for this reason. I did end up working as a call service rep for LL Bean later in life, but it wasn’t as bad.

Telemarketer when I was desperate during college. I didn’t even finish a single day of training. There were like 20 of us trainees and everyone took a half hour smoke break. I just walked out. The regular workers looked like they had lost their souls for six dollars an hour. Such grim faces.

Yay! Congratulations! 🎈🎊

I think so. Austin Killips set a new women’s FKT this year and she’s trans, but Trump doesn’t know a fucking thing about the race. It’s 2,700 miles, for starters, and Lael has already said she’s going to try and get it back (which she can probably do.) So asinine. I hate the TD being used this way.

I am absolutely flabbergasted. I can’t believe Trump a.) knows about the Tour Divide and b.) Just used it to deny our basic human rights. What the fuck. This must be an alternative universe.

You’re kidding me. He cited the Tour Divide in his speech? An underground bikepacking race with 200 people and no fucking prizes? (And I say this as a TD finisher.)
