  • This is exactly why my mother is no longer a part of my life. Shes not long for this world (morbid obesity, and severe unchecked mental health issues) and she voted for trump. Leaving me and my 9 year old son to exist in a wasteland of what used to be America. As great as America could have been, it never was. It was so close, yet so far. And then, as good as we had it (not that great) she voted to make it a hundred times worse. And that was it. She simply didn’t care enough about me or my son to do what’s right for the country, and now she dies alone. And it sucks, I wish it was different, but wishing doesn’t change things. And now it’s on her to wish for better things. I blocked her # and all of her side of the family, which keeps texting me to resolve it, people I haven’t talked to in 25 years.

    Like fuck off. It’s over. Consider yourself lucky if you don’t live to see the culmination, but I won’t be around to bother to care.













  • I’m as left as they come but the gender pay gap is a myth. It’s all choice of field. If you average male teachers, it’s going to be about the same as average female teachers. Going up and down for experience and other stuff, but it’ll be close, the thing is, teachers don’t get paid much and there’s more female teachers than male. The opposite is true in IT or other digital/computing worlds. They pay better than teachers, but there’s more men in this profession than women. The gender pay gap is a myth made up by averaging all employed people. I’m sorry but that is not a thing. If someone was still paying people significantly more or less based on their sex, people would be up in arms.

    There are so many things to fight for in the name of justice, but this one isn’t it.
