Depressing day at lab, about young voter...

Getting lab work done, I am wearing t shirt

with picture of ugly raging rump and it says Chingue Su Madre Trump

Fuck your mother trump it translates to..



20 something lab person sees it, understands it and chuckles and says she likes it. I use that as an opportunity to ask her if she is going to vote.

She says not sure, maybe, doesnt know much about the election, candidates.

When out doing essential business, I talk with people & encourage them to just register online & vote blue, no matter who.

I get a lot of the same responses as you did.

Disheartening, but I won't stop trying. Makes me feel sad that people are so disconnected from the voting system. And complacent.

I love your T-shirt, too, & I haven't even seen it! Lol

... and NOT by using freakin' Facebook!

My (previous) youngest coworkers referenced the "news" and posts they saw on FB constantly, treating the total garbage seriously --e.g., "From what I read on Facebook, drinking alcohol prevents getting infected by this virus."

Not to mention how they had their fuckin' faces glued to their smartphones so damn much while "working", that management eventually "went nuclear" after numerous warnings and finally announced that any employee seen with a smartphone in the workplace would be immediately terminated.
