A small but mighty group here at the capitol.
Im proud that my friends and I made our tiny stand at the Capitol today, but for everyone who just cant right now, if protest/donations/rage-scrolling is too much: rest if you need to, take care of yourself with all the compassion you can muster.
This fight is going to last a generation. We will all take turns at the front. Resting right now just means you can be there later. Thank you.

When we could have fucking ended it then and there simply by just turning out to vote for the much more qualified candidate in 2016.
If you didn't vote for Hillary and/or shit on her during 2016, fuck you for the rest of us having to now spend "a generation" to regain rights that we had for decades. Fuck you forever.
