At least he's consistent. The reason most republicans are fine with "it's only a person if it's implanted" is because they know it's easier to convince people a fertilized egg in some whore is a cute little baby than freezers in IVF clinics are full of millions of cute little babies. Also at that point they get savior fatigue.

Wait until they try to force a fertility care patient with too many developing fetuses to carry them all. Restrict abortion, people suffer.

"My morality is better than your morality"

Never look to Republicans for lessons on morality. Be like Nancy “pill popper” Reagan in this instance and just say no to any such advice.

After an evening sweating my ass off in my living room watching the debate, I am glad to say that the maintenance guy finally came by just after midnight. He apologized profusely, and I don't blame him for taking so long--I blame the office. He gotta the AC running again, so I'll be able to sleep, and he's coming back in the morning to give the whole system a thorough cleaning. Now wee get to see if the office fixes anything else...

In other news, I didn't want to tell my boss about a colossal screw up that pissed me off, but she asked me for details about what happened yesterday. Yeah, somebody's in big trouble now. I feel somewhat conflicted--like maybe I'm just a common snitch--but at the same time, schadenfreude combined with a sense of duty eases my mind. Now I just have to see how the chips fall. (The idiot I work with decided that, instead of doing actual work like the required safety inspection, she would just sit by on the sales floor and knit during work hours.) Boss's words: "Completely unacceptable."

So for now, good night and sleep well ya filthy damn animals!

Who doesn't love a dog? Trump. Trump doesn't love dogs. Fuck him, and fuck anyone who thinks that monster should be anywhere near the levers of power.

I will fight until I'm a bloody nub to stop the christofascists, and so will Andy (that is a lie, and CNN won't argue with lies anyway, but Andy will love almost anyone. The worst thing Andy would ever do is wag slower and saunter away from someone he doesn't dig).

Anyway...https://smokeopossum.substack.com/p/dogs-are-good-people

I'm not self promoting! I'm encouraging everyone who needs to see pictures of The World's Best Andy Doodle to indulge...the only reason I started a substack was the chat app being all fucky and starting a page was easier than dealing with that. ANYWAY,

I looked everywhere for Andy...

For Rep.(rehensible) Rosendale here's the flow chart.

Man + Woman (PROBABLY MARRIED) - IVF = NO BABIES

Ergo the potential "children" from this heterosexual pairing is zero, zilch, nada. GOD MAD!

Man + Woman (PROBABLY INSURED & MARRIED) + IVF = MAYBE BABIES

GOD COULD CARE LESS BECAUSE THAT'S JUST HOW THEY ROLL.

Simple math for a simpleton.

Rep Rosendale + 20 yr old intern = baby!

There is literally nothing PAB could say to make me waver in my support for Joe, so I'm just gonna skip it. Don't need the aggravation.

All he's going to do is lie. What's the point?

The less I see of that cretin the better.

He’s gotten enough people killed by riling up his minions with lies and bigotry.

Never thought I’d see a politician like that in my lifetime

You'd think they'd learn after a few times. Mayor Secretary President Pete always comes with the receipts.
