100 years of sufferage

 I toyed with coming out saying it was a failed experiment, but if I'm honest, feminine is proving to be very effective. New Zealand and Germany are run by a woman and they very much did the right thing (in stark contrast to the USA asshat). Women work better, they are relational and have empathy. I'll forever feel betrayed by American women who vote for Trump. Like an omnivore's ignoring the subjectivity of animals just as cute as their dog, they withhold sympathy in politics.

I can't be bothered to learn the history of suffrage this year. I've got enough projects already: Raise my daughter and create a meaningful life. I'm currently reading Flannery O'Connor and Dostoevsky, I read lots of Buddhism in the Pali Canon, and I gork out watching a lot of Netflix and Amazon Prime videos. I do most of the dishes, and am a pathetic houseminder, but I do spend a lot of time cleaning and taking out the garbage.

Homeschooling is hard. How do you explain she can't marry her mother because that would be incest?

When they fought for Suffrage, there was no TV, movies, phones, internet, Netflix. Netflix has some amazing movies for children: 

Song of the Sea 

The Prophet

The Breadwinner

AOC

Dark Brandon meet Dark Alex. I see her advising the republicans to stick to their guns and never compromise. They don’t want to do anything, only obstruct. So they don’t actually need to be unified. Chaos isn’t organized. This is fine. Read all about it from Heather Cox Richardson , a historian who covers current events. "As their policies threatened to lose voters by concentrating wealth upward and hollowing out the middle class, Republicans increasingly warned that minority voters wanted socialism and were destroying the nation to get it. Trump rode that narrative to power, and now tearing down the current government is the idea that drives the Republican base." While we're at it, here's another funny photo from the Onion: And then: I listened to the Times podcast about George Santos . He basically lied about, I don't know, 80% of his resume, and has a mysterious $700k in his "corporation" which has no clients. So he's a Russian or Chinese plant, o...
