Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him.
His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time. 
I sued them for wrongful termination and won.
So yes, I know that motherfucker.

a take I saw that rang true for me today is that the GOP, which spends the other 364 days of the year talking shit about NY (and they did this back then, too, lest they peddle some "we loved it then" story), wants, once a year, to front like they love New York. Nah man. Everybody already heard you

If you have a Harry Potter tattoo based on any of my art I’d previously done for the books from the Before Times, I will work with you to design a cover-up tattoo free of charge.

Watching Lance Bass and Seth Green and everyone get drunk and Lance just said we should change WWJD bracelets to what would Dolly do? And that’s brilliant.

Let’s talk about Medicare for All.
What would it mean for the individual American? ⬇
The day you’re born you get a card that gives you health insurance with no premium, co-pay, or deductible. Doesn’t matter if you get a job, lose a job, turn 26 or 65, get married or divorced — it's there for you.
