barbtries's Journalwhat do you when
you're a little anal about grammar and spelling, and you like a post or a tweet or whatever, and it has this error that just LEAPS at your eyes and offends your inner spelling nerd, and you wanna like it, or rec it, but you really want to correct it?
here's a tweet:
Jail Donald Drumpf? @DTrumpExposed
Replying to @DTrumpExposed @realDonaldTrump
If you really believe that Russian medalling is OK then you should study history.
medalling. not a word, not a word. but i like the message. i think i know that @realDonaldTrump never reads the replies to his tweets, but i still like doing it and seeing that others do it, because maybe he does, and maybe he will either get a clue (haha, ain't happening), or melt down entirely (much more likely imo)
how hard is it to right click on the word that has the red squiggly line under it? maybe you don't get that on phones and phones are probably where most tweets come from.
anyhow. gone on and on about something really trivial. i think i just want some validation that i am not the only one who's this way.
i'm so pissed at republicans right now i could puke.
i have insurance through my employer. millions of people do not. it's not just that they'd sell away the good health of their constituents for a few more bucks in their pockets. it's this fucking drama, this fear, that they have put us all through in their craven quest to undo anything that was accomplished during the past administration. it is so wrong. the way McConnell ran this show is so wrong.
fuck them. i fucking HATE republicans. they are a blight and a malignancy and a curse on this country, and may they lose so badly in 2018 that they disappear.
question about twitter
trump called Adam Schiff "sleazy" on twitter and i replied, "sleazy is a step up for you Mr pussy grabber," but now i can't find my tweet. is it possible it was deleted but i wasn't notified?
even though the president can say it, i suppose the word "pussy" may violate twitter TOS...but i don't know. thanks to anyone who's more experienced on twitter!

19 July 2017 (16th anniversary of my daughter's death btw) would be a good day for a demonstration or a march. the whole thing is so maddening. the russians stole the election for this president and he's going to try and make sure less people vote forever...
i miss commenting on juries sometimes
i just served and would have liked to mention that it was the title alone, not the actual post, that caused me to say it broke the rule. just saying.
