My oldest daughter took up powerlifting a couple of years ago to help battle depression, and has a couple of competitions under her belt. She feels better, and has made a ton of new friends. I outweigh her by more than 100 pounds, and It's hilarious when she tosses me in the air. π

You're 100% correct. Shake Hands With The Devil is a very important and disturbing documentary about the Rwanda genocide that shows how people were deliberately maimed by chopping off limbs. Making them disabled was a policy.

Ignoring basic human rights for one second, Newsom hosted Steve fucking Bannon on his podcast. That fact alone should preclude him from ever holding elected office again as a Democrat. If you're hanging out with Nazis, you're a fucking Nazi. Is that who you want running this country?
