Because of the lateness I was watching on my phone in the car while my 3yo did his speech therapy. I had the windows half down and I could not stop cheering as she was speaking. A vendor hauling some stuff out to a truck next door gave me some weird looks. 😂
I’m still so energized from yesterday.

One of my supervisors called earlier today and asked how i was doing, my answer was 'still riding the high of the VP pick'
its probably the first day since 2016 that I have felt a real sense of hope.

I just had a chance to watch. I forgot what it's like to not want to throw things at the tv.

Also still riding high over here. I submitted my preclearance at work and hit submit as soon as my approval came through. I need to be part of ushering in such a sorely needed administration and saving this damn country from itself.

They wouldn't reach this deep if they weren't scared. We need to reach deep and mobilize every voter we can.
Turnout is going to win this.

I missed the speech because I was on a Zoom, so I just watched.
Y'all.
I know that this is tough. Joe wasn't who some wanted. Kamala wasn't who some wanted. Joe and Kamala together weren't who some wanted. But goddamn it, America hasn't felt like home in 3+ years, and that speech made me feel energized, excited, ready and willing to fight to take this motherfucking country back.

I am probably not going to take you seriously if you are in the comments section of a local news channel's FB page saying "She's a indian, she ain't even black. She can't be black because her dad is Jamaican and she was sworn in as an indian american"
Okie dokie, you fucking piece of racist trash.
I am not concerned with the birther assholes, it isn't like they would have voted Biden no matter who he picked and they aren't really going to influence anyone that was leaning Biden. My bigger concern right now are the Bernie bros. But again, they probably weren't voting for anyone besides Bernie anyway. However, my bro husband told me yesterday "Wow, that speech was good. She is a good pick." This is a 180 from his previous "KaMaLa'S a CoP" rhetoric. Maybe there is hope for some of those bros in the end.
I am ready.

roloma I have bro friends on both ends of the spectrum. Those that understand the stakes and will do everything to get Trump out and the others throwing a temper tantrum. The latter are quite frustrating. I'm ignoring it he ones in NY as their no votes won't be so bad but hoping my voice on their boards helps convince others Bros to be pragmatic.

The Biden campaign has a "pause emails for two weeks" option, a "receive fewer emails" option as well as unsubscribe at the bottom of the ones I've been getting too.

And the birthers have started So all because they don't understand what "natural born citizen" means? Okay. This argument infuriates me beyond belief. I truly believe that i am a natural born citizen. Because even though I was born abroad and NOT on a military base, I was born to an American father. To me- This should never fucking be a question. However, Because of racist shitbags like the above, people question the validity of my citizenship. Like fuxk all them. Also in case you didn't know when I was born to a foreign mother to an American father, my dad had to sign an affidavit confirming I was his and that he'd support me financially. Had he not signed it, I wouldn't be an American citizen. I was born in 1985. Like it's appalling that our servicemen were able to still abandon children overseas that late. And also none of that even has shit to do with Kamala. I just really, REALLY hate this argument.

Did you guys see that the ad on the bottom of this thread now is one that says “Congratulate Kamala Harris!” It made me laugh bc it’s quite the departure from the Trump ads we used to have there.
