Random Political Thoughts Collected
Just a collection of tweets, links, and a few thoughts of my own after the last week.
- To me it's weird how people who mocked anyone wearing a mask for a global pandemic are willing to put a tampon on their ear as a show of support for their favourite political person
- I'm sure he really wanted to stay in the race for a variety of complicated reasons, but the fact that Biden's camp waited until after the Republican spent their convention bashing him to announce he was stepping out of the race is brilliant. He took all the metaphorical punches, and Harris is able to step in without having her first weekend being the talking point for an entire convention.
No president of America has ever given birth - I don’t understand why it’s suddenly an issue

I’m a right-leaning woman who agrees with almost nothing the Biden-Harris administration has done, but the primal hatred and disgust Vance stokes in me transcends politics. I suspect I am not the only woman of my vintage, so to speak, who feels this way. https://t.co/iNVeexahGk

Just a reminder, Jesus didn’t have any children either.

It's absolutely not healthy for us how fast news is moving and the world appears to be changing. Even though all of this feels like a reason to be online and in the apps even more right now, it's all the more reason to put your phone in a pillow case and hang it from the ceiling so that the only way to get to it is by winning a ladder match with your family or roommates.
