The Rest in Peace Thread (RIP)

Yes, going to be near impossible. Gotta love the Senate.

[OccultHawk]

Uh filibuster?

**** they actually get paid to do

[OccultHawk]

For months?

Yes. Months

[rostasi]

In addition to all of the Dems in the Senate,
they'll have to have 4 Repubs to say,
"No, we're waiting until after the election."

As if 2020 couldn't get any shittier.

I will say here something I've been saying
to friends the past few months and that is
that I think the *real* October surprise is
gonna be that Pubic Hair Thomas will give
up his seat because of some backroom deal
with the devil so he can "spend more time
with the family." If that happens, then we're
looking at a 7-2 Court. ...and folks, you might
as well start packing your bags with copies of
"Lonely Planet" and "Pimsleur."

There was a 54 day filibuster before the Civil Rights Act of 1964

Three unassailable tracks!

RIP to a woman who changed how the world viewed feminism with a song and also captured the definitive soft rock pop awesomeness of the 1970’s.

I also want to say something personal about I am Woman. I was around first or second grade when I first heard that. I used to listen to my little radio all the time. My dad was drunk and yelling, insulting, and even physically beating my mom all the time. That song was a voice that taught me so early on that what I was being exposed to was wrong and there was a different world out there. With how much I loved music you could say that song taught me how to be a man instead of a woman beating bitch. When I heard that song it was clear as a bell what was right and what was wrong. Huge huge gratitude and props.
