lock the fuck in?? no way dude. I am TUCKED the fuck in :) good night

I'd just like to clarify some things about Senator Cory Booker's marathon Senate speech in protest of the present administration and everything they are doing to the American people.

Senator Booker was NOT allowed to sit down, eat, or use the bathroom during his speech. Sitting or leaving the room to use the bathroom would be considered yielding the floor. Eating would have interfered with his speaking and the person who has the senate floor must continue to speak, except when listening to questions that they will then answer.

He only took occasional sips of water.

The person who previously held the record for longest speech on the Senate floor did have bathroom breaks and also did things like read from the encyclopedia.

Senator Booker did not do that. His speech was to point out the damage that this administration is doing and he stayed on that subject.

Senator Booker's speech did reach many people. It wasn't a silly stunt that was done so that he could take the record for longest speech. He wanted to show the country that democrats will do something to bring attention to the problems we are facing. That democrats are listening to them.

Senator Cory Booker spoke for 25 hours and 4 minutes to "make good trouble."

also like, a Black man breaking Strom Thurmond's record is absolutely *chef's kiss*

for those who are too young to know about Strom, he was literally a white supremacist

He trained himself to give this speech by practicing and then implementing limits on food and water intake leading up to this. He cut out food for days, then cut out water the day before.

He then went to do an appearance on Maddow after yielding.

hoooooly shit

throwing it back woeful style

The way everything is so expensive and it's not even good 😐

You really really can’t tell who’s non binary just by looking at them. A lot of non binary folks, myself and several members of my family included, just live as a binary gender out in public because it’s easier or because we don’t care.

I’m a non binary trans man, my brother is a non binary person who lives as a cis man for convenience. Do you think the people at Home Depot can tell that when we show up with our cis dad to look at lumber? No. They can’t. They just see three men in old ratty jackets arguing over which length of board they said they were gonna buy because they all remember something slightly different.

your unreliable narrator fucking bit me

thats not how they told it

i need opinions. on shoes.

THE devotionshipping trope is "are they loyal to me or to my title" and the answer HAS to be that they genuinely don't differentiate between the two and are confused and slightly alarmed by the question

someone reblogged this like 'what if it IS solely about personal devotion though' sorry that's not what this post is about. this post was written about a ship where one character knew he was going to die for the other before they even met.
