I’m so distraught about Kamala dropping out. It’s more upsetting to me that she is out but Bloomberg, Steyer, are still in. This isn’t good for our democracy. Lady, I am here. Come cry with me in the 20/20 thread. I’m freaking out.

Not sure if anyone saw but life expectancy of people our generations age has fallen 7% in the last 7 years. All on the bases of the spread of the opiod crisis as well as the introduction of High Fructose Corn Syrup.
It all seems like our generation is being shut down after in the late 80s and 90s we, as kids were pushed to take care of the planet and that one day we will be able to make policy to make the world a better place.
And now that we are in a position to do so, the olds put in place to removed us through disease and addiction and the oldest generation is bogarting power as long as they can because they don't like our ideas of inclusion and change.
I am not one for conspiracy theories but I feel our generation is under attack. And we are doing all we can to make the next generations life and experience that much better but the hinderances are getting to be so bad we are literally dying to quickly.
Sorry for the rant but I call kind of came to me this morning on the ride to work. Also having a rough 2 weeks and it shows no sign of getting better.

.@justintrudeau, @emmanuelmacron, @borisjohnson and other VIPs shared a few words at a Buckingham Palace reception Tuesday. No one mentions @realdonaldtrump by name, but they seem to be discussing his lengthy impromptu press conferences from earlier in the day. (Video: Host Pool) t.co/dVgj48rpOP

Unrelated to impeachment, the South Carolina legislature is stupid. The state got a bunch of money earlier this year (or maybe it was last year, I can't remember) and decided to mail each qualifying, tax paying household a $50 check. They spent over $700K on postage. We could have replaced our busses (which here are owned and operated by the state) or fixed some roads or an infrastructure project, but instead we got $50. Many people were talking about donating it to a school or to a teacher. My husband and I decided to donate to Planned Parenthood, so for Giving Tuesday, they got our $ which will go to good use since so many dumb fucks are cutting health care funding.

Is anything going to come from all these impeachment hearings? I’m feeling so over the world right now I wish the “history will look back on this people poorly” or “they’ll have to put their name in record that they’re okay with Trump” stuff gave me any satisfaction at all

This is the same bullshit wording my evangelical cousin used when she decided to adopt because of infertility. IVF is ruining society, because that’s why other babies weren’t adopted!! Babies are ABORTED and here these selfish women are, having TREATMENTS. They easily could just pick one up at the shelter, like a puppy, evidently. But she/ her friends only wanted to adopt small white, blonde infants. So. Just a problem for those brown babies, I guess. (I started treatments myself when it was 13-14 months into trying and my H’s morph was basically nonexistent. I got knocked up on an off month, but we were a one in a million case. These people can fuck off)

Apparently Trump may no longer do the press conference after the NATO Summit and instead will head back home.
I think he doesn't want to be made fun of again and just wants to watch the impeachment proceedings like the rest of us.

A congressmen just on CSPAN from R-OH just said the 12 day recess Ds took to talk about ways the country is combating climate change was a waste of time. They should have worked on the budget.
Clearly Rs dont' see climate change as a threat or a thing. Ass.
