I kind of want to burn down Yale. Is that wrong?
I mean, I know it would be morally wrong to actually burn down Yale. But is it a mistake to want to?
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

One Supreme Court justice in history has been impeached in the 1800s, but he was not convicted.

So it's a legal possibility, but takes representatives actually getting their act together and doing something major. OK.

At least they found that cop in Chicago guilty.
It's like we can have progress for women or minorities, but not both at the same time. And god help people who are both.

Kinda feels more like we can have crumbs but not progress right now. Not that the first conviction of a cop in 50 years in Chicago is nothing but, idk, it's one thing not being completely wrong.

Our wings are not tired.
Well they can, and probably will vote to impeach because that is the House and just a majority. But they (probably) could not get 2/3 of the Senate to convict. But a real trial would be interesting.

What is even happening?

Don't quote me, but I think Yale (or the law school) came out against Kavanaugh, or at least in favor of a (you know, real) investigation.
I'm too angry to look it up though.

I kinda wanted to tell the ticket agent that I needed to check a second bag loaded with all of my rage, but she was too delighted by my "In Tacos We Trust" shirt and I didn't want to bring her down.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I went to CVS to pick up a prescription, and the person working at the pharmacy (pharmacy assistant? Not sure what the right title is) saw my name and said, "Oh! You should be in the White House! ... I bet you get that a lot, don't you?"

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
That's not the first time that's happened at that CVS, right?
