Things I like about this decal on a restaurant window:
-the insane orange waiter
-that he’s carrying his plates in the air like a strongman
-the couple looks like this isn’t the first time he’s done this, but it’s easier to just let it happen at this point.
-the sign says PASTA as if he’s screaming it like a frankenstein
-but he’s holding a plate of an entire chicken and a plate of wine glasses
-there’s three wine glasses
-one’s for him.
This makes me laugh to the point of tears every time I see it

As you celebrate thanksgiving, know that the Trump administration is taking away 321 acres of land from the Mashpee-Wampanoag, the tribe that helped the pilgrims survive and were present at the first thanksgiving. Tell legislators to support the Mashpee Reservation Reaffirmation Act. ]
For those who don’t live in Massachusetts, that is literally ALL THE LAND THEY HAVE! All of it. The state aims to make the entire ~3000 person tribe homeless.
If you want more information the tribe themselves have a website for you to look at! Please spread the word and reach out to your networks so people are feeling specifically asked to act upon this… it is incumbent upon all of us to stand up for our Mashpee-Wampanoag siblings at this time. We MUST be their allies. We MUST uplift their voices and support what their asks are.
We owe all Indigenous peoples in this country so much more than this… but this is a start.
This is THE most important vote
Things aren’t over quite yet: Both Georgia Senate races are headed to a January 2021 runoff that could decide Senate control.
This is where we are: Democrats (including the 2 independent senators Sanders and King) currently hold 48 seats. Republicans currently hold 50 seats.
If Democrats gain the 2 seats from the runoffs (Ossoff and Warnock) we will be able to TIE the Senate 50-50. In which case, Kamala Harris, the VP, will tie-break votes in favor of the Democrats, therefore giving us a “majority” in the Senate.
I cannot stress enough how important this is for Democrats. We need to get both Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock in, otherwise Biden will have a very difficult time getting anything done in office over the next 4 years.
FOR GEORGIA VOTERS:
- MARK YOUR CALENDARS. The federal runoff election date (aka for the Senate seats) is JANUARY 5, 2021! (State and local runoffs are held December 1, 2020!)
- Request an absentee ballot by NOVEMBER 18, 2020. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT FOR EVERYONE, EVEN IF YOU VOTED IN THE GENERAL ELECTION. For those who voted absentee in the General Election, you will NOT be automatically sent another absentee ballot for the runoff if you don’t make a separate request for one! Your prior absentee ballot request for the General Election does not apply to the runoff!
- Register to vote for the runoff by DECEMBER 7, 2020.
- Early voting for the runoff will begin on DECEMBER 14, 2020. (Please get your ballots in before the Jan. 5 deadline, and try to drop off your ballots instead of mailing them in when it gets very close. For info on in-person voting on election day, check here.)
- Check your voting status, track your ballot, find polling locations, verify your mail-in application status, and more HERE.
- Are you 17 years old but will be 18 by JANUARY 5, 2021? You are eligible to vote in the runoffs!
- If you’re a college student coming from another state who is currently living on-campus or off-campus in Georgia, you can register to vote in the Georgia runoffs. (Go here, here and here for more info about this.)
- Go here to find the contact info of your county’s board of registrar’s office. Contact them to discuss the voting options available to you!
- Check the official Georgia website for more runoff election information.
FOR NON-GEORGIA VOTERS WHO WANT TO HELP:
DONATING

We can do this. We can flip the Senate and take back the next 4 years.
If anyone deserves a raise it’s the employee from four seasons total landscaping who answered the phone and went “yup, we can set up a podium and everything” and just acted like nothing was out of the ordinary.
Amazing. Truly amazing.
Also now they're selling "Make America Rake Again" stickers.
