          Myself after being born into white trash in Texas, never having love for this country, having to stave off poverty for two decades during my lifetime, having taught myself code as my peers resigned themselves to manual labor, and having no options to emigrate out because I have no ties to any origin countries that make up my genetics.

          I wish I could be a Canadian. I’d be friendly, helpful, and pay my taxes on time. I’m going to die impoverished in the “land of opportunity”.

              I think this thread proves that there needs to be a peanuts meme community

              Quick, you need a mental health app and a prescription too. It’s not normal to be overwhelmed by this, you’re the only one.

                I was did/heartened when I heard psychologists speaking out about how much more difficult their jobs have gotten since so many of the stresses people have been dealing with have moved to externalities rather than internalities. It is REALLY hard to help someone cope in the usual ways because the problems are real, we our lives and livelihoods are under existential threat, and we are relatively powerless in the face of it all. No amount of affirmations are going to make any of that better.

            I’m surprised there isn’t a Texas -> Alberta immigration pipeline. The province wants to be like Texas so much!

    If Trump faces any consequences during his term, I’ll eat my fucking hat.

    I wish I could say this is a click bait title, but its more like the title was written based on the assumption no one will click to read the article. No where in there were there any legal experts(Lawyers, Judges or legal scholars). No where in there did anyone actually suggest he’d face any consequences for his actions. Total bs title intended to give a few people hope I guess. Not really sure what the thought process was. Probably wasn’t one of those either.

    Can I downvote this any harder? We’ve been hearing “prison time” for years, just dangling a carrot. I’m not even going to bother reading this.

    Not gonna read this, if Trump was ever going to face consequences, it would have happened by now. The rapist is gonna die peacefully in his sleep eventually. There is no god.
