The RNC sent me a notice of official census material that was actually a fundraiser for the republican candidates running in the midterms. The paperwork was presented as being an official document required to be filled out by law, but it was patently false. This is corruption. This is meant to deceive people into giving data and money to a political party under the guise of nonpartisan census data. This undermines trust in the census, local government, and the democratic process. This is beyond disgusting, and I’m mailing back the form to tell the RNC how I really feel about their bullshit.

Starbucks Canada:
We’re removing plastic straws in our stores globally by 2020—reducing more than 1 billion plastic straws per year from our stores.
Jennifer Marley:
Will there be a solution for people who require the flexibility of a plastic straw due to disability concerns? #PaperForAll#PlasticForNeeds
Starbucks Canada:
Absolutely, we recognize that many of our customers require a straw. As part of this announcement we are also committing to introducing a straw made from alternative materials (paper, compostable plastic) for use with any cold drink, should a customer require or prefer one.
hey, hey, guys?
what… what are the new lids made of?
Plastic straws are not recyclable because they are too lightweight. The new lids are recyclable. This is a pretty common concern so Starbucks addressed it
Starbucks never said they were getting rid of plastic, just the plastic straws. This way when customers recycle their cups and stuff it’s actually possible to do so.
thank you! that makes me feel a bit better about it – at least it’s not just more waste!
Keith, watching Shiro and Adam: Ew. Gross. Disgusting. I’ll never be like them. Love is for fools. I pledge right here on this day, in this living room, I will live my whole life without falling in love.
Keith’s 12-year-old ass immediately upon seeing Lance for the first time:
keith was totally that little shit who would go up to adam and be like “when i grow up i hope i find a boyfriend as nice as you” and adam is all flattered and just cooing meanwhile keith is looking over his shoulder giving shiro a devilish grin like “i can never get in trouble ever again” and shiro is just “why you little”
