🫂 sorry friend, I used to live in Lincoln and still have family out there (and in Kansas). But if Kansas and Mississippi can do it, Louisiana and Nebraska can too! One day… one day

My hope: is that it encourages other southerners to turn out for voting… because Mississippi (and Texas. and Kansas. and South Carolina) now breaks the illusion of, “my vote doesn’t matter because my state’s always red, regardless of my voting”. It feels like the “Southern Strategy” is falling apart.

I live in Louisiana, and our “generational farm-boy” Dem was <1% away from winning the Senate seat against a Trump sycophant… I couldn’t believe we even got that close; it’s fucking deep southern hoedown 'round most this state

My fear: complacency. And us US Americans are conditioned to be “Laissez-faire” about our democracy. Maybe this conservative/fascist shit will make Gen Z/A USians wayyy more aware of politics and class?

There’s so much fucking work to be done

Lol, thank you. My brain was also trying it’s hardest to word it correctly, while keeping the joke

Stop trying to “make saying ‘laws apply to the rich’” happen

Idk I can’t make it work well, in that format

Jesus fucking christ, I had to go look cause I thought you were just being funny. Nope, clipped straight from the image itself wtf

Mississippi next. Ripping their “Southern Strategy” legacy at the seams

Louisiana too (well Senate, there wasn’t a gubernatorial this year)

It’s ok to admit on what you’re wrong about; that doesn’t make you lesser. No big deal, we all learned a little more… that should be considered a good thing

Same

Ayyyy, do it! You found a keyboard and everything, that would be sweet to have!

Holy shit, I’m sold! You can have the rights, just make me an honorable mention lol

Edit: Can someone please make this?

Right‽ Everyone knows that it’s 4 “O’s”, like “whoooosh”

I loved using T9 and used to blind text all of the time. With touchscreen, it took me so much fucking longer and you can’t look away. I’ve gotten over it now, but I miss me some T9 and physical buttons

Exactly

I use them almost like a semicolon — a longer pause to break up the sentence, where a comma just wouldn’t cut it. Idk how correct I am either, it’s more about trying to convey my voice and how I would like the sentence to be read. I’m not a much of a grammar nazi, more like a grammar anarchist

I was a pretty avid reader growing up and I think I just kinda noticed them. And I used to get a little confused when my teachers kept knocking me for “run-on” sentences, when the books I read often had long-structured sentences.

Commas, semicolons, ellipses, em dashes, colons, parentheses — sprinkle them about and you can have a paragraph of a sentence (with side thoughts), and kinda do whatever you want… it’s all about using “voice” through written word. (Period)

You get it

I refuse to give 'em up

MAGats don’t wanna admit that they themselves were wrong… or I should say, they don’t want to have to hide their heinousness again. They don’t give a fuck about how awful trump is, they just don’t wanna feel like people think their awful/outcast, because they don’t know how to reconcile. Doubling down is what angry cowards do

Absolutely cursed

Pregerant?
