Jason Campbell: Nikki Haley says the Confederate flag was about "service, and sacrifice, and heritage" until Dylan Roof "hijacked" it Service, sacrifice, and heritage TO ENSLAVE PEOPLE AND TREAT THEM LIKE PROPERTY TO DO WITH WHATEVER THE PURCHASER PLEASED, INCLUDING PHYSICAL AND SEXUAL ABUSE. Yes, I'm yelling, and yes, I am yelling at the wrong people, but JFC,I am so goddamned sick of the "heritage" bullshit. There are a few Christmas parades around me that have been cancelled because evidently people are pissed and threatening violence that the Sons of the Confederacy are marching. And have been marching. For years. But violence! And people are piiiiiiiiiissed. Uh, hi, hypocrites? The SOTC were fans of enslavement, miss me with that anger. Buncha redneck backwoods asshats. They all show up wearing their Army/Marines/Navy gear, too. PICK A SIDE. You’re not for American servicemembers AND the confederacy. Sorry.

The Confederacy literally took up arms against the United States. I don't understand why people never seem to remember that.

I mean, WTAF is happening? I think my dog could riff about toilets and light bulbs and it would be more meaningful than this.

He said people are flushing toilets 10-15 times. That’s....not a low flow toilet problem. That’s user error.

Maybe if you weren't pounding big macs and well done ketchup steaks you could get your toilet to flush in one go.

OMG. Your heritage is shit. Your ancestors were evil. Fucking come to terms with it. They weren't her ancestors either so she's just co-opting the heritage bullshit to twirl in front of the MAGA crowd.

I'm feeling especially helpless today about the children at the border. I give money and I vote for people I feel will do better, but I don't know what else to do—concrete steps to get kids out quickly, or who to best give money to (lawyers?). Google fails me. Maybe they don't exist? I'm spiraling a bit. I always give to RAICES

We have eco friendly toilets and I've never noticed a difference 🤷♀️
And I didn't love the early "cool white" LED's that made my living room feel like a fish tank but LED bulbs have come a loooooong way and now I notice zero difference

He doesn't want to look orange? What shade are the lightbulbs where he's around mirrors because I just can't fathom he doesn't realize he's orange. And that it has nothing to do with the light. Indoors, outdoors, day, night, he's orange.
Scratch that. Of course he doesn't see himself correctly. I forget he thinks his hair actually looks good and fools people. He clearly doesn't see himself objectively.

Also weird fixation on Tic Tacs

Inspired by Nikki Haleys comments - this is an awesome thread on the history of the Confederate flag.

Active shooter reported at a Naval Air Station in Pensacola: Reports saying shooter is dead, several others injured. The FBI has taken over the case and it is being investigated as a possible act of terror.

Right. Not snarking at you. Just incredibly irritated at their distinction of terror.
