Well too little too late for some. I hope people who need this can access this now. The US healthcare system, especially for vets, makes me so mad

I know it’s never gonna happen for many reasons, but I wish they couldn’t make such clickbait-y headlines

Reply to Justice Dept. subpoenas Ariz., Mich., Wis. officials for Trump communications by Acewrap

My internal response to articles like this really surprises me sometimes, with how dim my outlook is on actually seeing results for these kinda things. I hope it’ll come to something but until we get any results I won’t be holding my breath

edit: I’m glad he actually got them subpoenaed though

I know it’s pretty much certain when a news station calls the races like this but I wish they’d put “projects” at the first part of the sentence

Reply to Serial ‘jogger rapist’ to be released from Oregon prison by LuceeCarioca

I honestly hope he’s been reformed in prison for the sake of everyone he interacts with. Will I be surprised if i see an article after he’s released that he did it again? No. But I’m going to hope for the best since there’s no way to stop this.

He was targeting specific people. From some of my friends who were VERY close to this situation, he had threatened people in the department last semester and should have been in jail.
