Call your reps and tell them you are opposed to John Bolton’s appointment if his previous stances concern you (Hint: They should. Both Democrats and GOP congresspeople have opposed him previously for a reason).
It’s also a good time to tell your reps you want the president’s first strike power restricted.
Asha: Father, why do you get so mad when Grandfather and Grandmother visit? Do you hate them?
Balon: I don’t hate them, just your grandmother. Well, I don’t hate her, just the sound she makes. Her voice, and the things she says.
*flashback montage of her annoyed squawking about life at Pyke*
Asha: Wanna hear my impression of her?
Balon: Yes.
*Asha makes the same squawking noise, Balon smiles*
Alannys: I’m not hearing this, right?
Balon: Sorry! I mean, she’s your Grandmother. We love her. *takes Asha to the side and whispers* We hate her.
Three cats died after their owners used an anti-inflammatory cream used to treat arthritis. The Food and Drug Administration warns to keep drugs away from pets; a tiny bit can be toxic.
Important for spoonies with cats!
Creams with Flurbiprofen are fatal to cats.
Brands that use this chemical (Not a complete list):
Myoflex Traumeel Capzasin
If you have cats, check your pain relieving cream for this, and keep them from ingesting it, please!

Please be safe if youre muslim, if youre not muslim please look out for and protect the muslim people around you, theres some seriously sick people out there that may very well act on this.
What the actual fuck.
Please stay safe everyone
Rushed to snopes, hoping to find it’s a hoax – doesn’t seem to be, and it’s reported on The Independent and on Sky News and on The Guardian.
Stay safe, everyone.
Fucking disgusting
This is fucking sick. If you are Muslim, please stay safe. And if you are not Muslim and see any of this going on, please step in and help. Nobody NOBODY deserves this.
The only thing I truly understand about this heinous idea is the point system. I’m guessing the amount of points you get are really the number of years you win in prison without the possibility of parole.
It’s happened before.
But likely it’s the work of one small group or a single perpetrator.
And if you’re afraid of the power Trump already wields, hear this: if we don’t show up in the midterms, the Republicans could get a supermajority in the Senate. That means no ability to filibuster. No recourse. No way to stop them.
We’ve got to make sure the blue states stay blue and try to turn some of those red states blue as well. Don’t count your state out just because it usually votes Republican. Historically, midterms have way lower turnouts than presidential election years. So lets actually show up this time and do some damage.
Oh, and one hopeful note, all the House seats are up for reelection. So let’s take that shit away from Donald Trump and his Republican Party.
Also, remember to vote in local elections! Keep track of when they are, the candidates, and make sure you stay informed on local and state politics. We have to show up in 2018, and at every. Single. Thing.
I dont like adding things but this needs to be said: DO NOT ASSUME THAT THERE WILL BE A HIGH DEMOCRATIC TURNOUT. Do not think that “oh EVERYONE else will show up to vote, I dont have to” Do not do that. Because trust me you wouldn’t be the only person thinking that. Now, if everyone assumes it’ll be a high turn out so they dont go, then nobody goes. Assume always that your vote will be the tipping point, assume that your vote is necessary and needed (because guess what: it absolutely is). Go vote. Keep track of the dates. And just go do it.
Register to vote. Check that you’re registered even if you think you are, even if you (like me) have voted in every election since you were old enough to do so. And then do it.
If you can, volunteer to drive people to the polls.
All you high schooler turning 18 in time for the election make sure you register to vote!!
Y’all are woke right now and that is so amazing, but you need to keep the momentum going. Real change happens when you show up and help put people into power the will actually make changes.
There were no potatoes in medieval England, but they are so integral to British cuisine that every medieval European fantasy from Tolkien to GRRM has potatoes.
*Fairly good, because he messed up with corn. But at least GRRM’s better than Tolkien there! Though it’s a shame, because, mmm, potatoes.
GRRM has slipped a few times on New World foods. Then hunts turkeys and the Starks eat pumpkin soup. And then we have Dorne’s peppers. As well as some sort of dish called ‘meat and mash’ where they don’t mention what exactly is mashed – probably turnips or root vegetables, but it’s never clarified.
Plus the show has potatoes mentioned a couple times, so if you want to throw potatoes into your fanfic or whatever, you’re not strictly wrong since Westeros does apparently have some new world foods.
