When the government isn't tolerable, it's time to go and vote your butt off. And that's a lot of voting. Unless you live in Utah like I do, where all voting districts are so over-gerrymandered that no one except a republican candidate can possibly win.

We just had a huge election for congressional reps and there were two candidates, one a popular Democrat with most of the people's support and the other a confirmed trump-supporting book banning conservative hater. She had almost no popular backing. But guess who won.

It sure as hell wasn't the Democrat. And it sure as hell won't be the people of Utah who continue to be embarrassed by our right wing fascist asshole legislatures that have banned ALL healthcare for women and made it illegal to ever take a landlord to court over any issue. I love living in neo-nazi times, it sure makes the Dark Ages look appealing by comparison.
