I live in NY, where open-mouth breathers in Trump trucks shut down the Mario Cuomo (Peet Seeger) Bridge, the Whitestone Bridge and the Garden State Parkway. Fuck these motherfuckers.

I'm kind of glad for Covid. I never leave my house and I have no wish to interact with any of those assholes. Ever. Again.

How before election night my county has record numbers for ail in and absentee in person and had long lines on election day yet had a lower turnout than 2016.

And people wonder why I badmouth other white people.

a whole lot of mail in ballots because they wanted them not to be counted.
