Look, it's been a long week, OK.
It could be worse, I could have posted it as a really, really, tall still image.

Then customs decided to take their share of 21%. So Converted back to euro this is 21% of € 5,43 which is € 1,14.

The only difference between then and now is that my generation fought like motherfuckers to make it safe for these kids to be themselves. If you think for one second you’ll drag us back, I got news for you - we already kicked your ass once, we can do it again as many times as it takes.
GOP pollster Patrick Ruffini pretends AI generated photos show black Trump supporters registering to vote.
(ETA: no wonder he needed AI, the fictions compound. Black republicans? Republicans registering black people to vote? Black Trump supporters? It's all made up like the star on that "American" flag.)
