tattoo this on my flesh

I literally had a friend say this the other day while having dinner with him and his husband. 

“Listen.” He said. “I served in the military. 10 years in the army, and had to keep my mouth shut and pretend. I had to pretend to everyone, until I just got sick of it and decided fuck you all. I haven’t been nice in years. Everyone saying I should shut up can kiss my ass.” 

If people wanted nice gay people they should have been nicer to them. 

IF PEOPLE WANTED NICE GAY PEOPLE THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN NICER TO THEM

Oh wow I forgot about this.
I need to tell Ron he’s Tumblr famous now.

Ron says to tell all the pissed off cockroach motherfuckers that he and his husband Ryl are now your Angry Gay Dads.

Excellent.

Belgium had the highest voter turnout at 87% while America only had 55% turnout in 2016. So having 40% of voters voting in the mid-terms is pretty pathetic.

Democrats have to start winning state elections in order to end Voter Suppression #Gerrymandering #ElectionRigging

If history is any indicator, only around 40 percent of eligible voters will vote in the midterm elections.

But it’s more likely that most Americans do want to vote, and one of the root causes of low turnout is this country’s framework of restrictive voting laws.

To explore the hurdles that voters face this election, we created five voter profiles: 

  1. The No-ID Voter: could not vote in 23 states
  2. The Procrastinating Voter: could not vote in 34 states

  3. The Eager Student Voter: could not vote in 7 states

  4. The Working-Parent Voter: could not vote in

    27

    states

  5. The Convicted-Felon Voter

    could not vote

    in 30 states
