@dj_daem0n Alaska (I used to live there) has a sexual assault rate that is roughly double that of any state in the Lower 48. It is a *massive* problem there. Alaska is deep red, but it's not GOP red. It's more a "leave us the fuck alone, let us have all the guns, we don't bother with religion, live and let live" kinda red.
It would have been very tough on Murkowski to vote yes on Kavanaugh given the issues of her state. Make no mistake, she is just pandering.
@dj_daem0n No, she's just posturing. She doesn't have to vote "present" for a friend, she's purposely making sure her no vote doesn't have any effect.
Really fantastic and very concise piece, and one that mirrors my own opinion almost exactly. The only difference being that I would not forgive his emotional outbursts regardless of guilt. Not in that setting.

This is both uncomfortably dark and all too accurate.
@HedgeTrimmerKnight god that was so juvenile and embarrassing.
@emaz @LilMaggie15 What has it become? I feel like I'm missing something.
Gun owners once again making me feel embarrassed on behalf of all normal people who happen to own firearms. Smh

Aaaaghhhh there's so much drama on the news but I'm still banned on Twatter for another day and CoSo isnt awake en masse at the same times I am 😫😫😫
Working and being in school full time, along with my foul mouth, is cutting into my internetsing to an unacceptable degree. UNACCEPTABLE, I say!!!
😪
*sad toot*
@voltronic I would deactivate but COSO isn't as busy. Since it's all based on chronological order, it's harder to get posts seen unless you post only when everyone else is online. That doesn't work for me because of my schedule.
@voltronic I know! It's happened once before, when I told Roy Moore to go fuck himself. There's something in place where if you swear at a verified account, you get insta-banned. Happens within seconds to a few minutes. Anyone else seems to be fair game.
@th3j35t3r Came here after looking at Twitter, your account is still there but shows a "temporarily restricted" message before allowing me to view it. Doesn't seem banned, though.
@paercebal local politics at that level doesn't really have any power.
CoSo user #53. Anti-fascist. Leftist.
The little engine that wished a motherfucker would. Hands rated "E" for everybody.
