    @GregoryBrandt @YouTube This was interesting, & visually beautiful. Another community, where free access to injection vasectomies, would make enormous strides, to improve quality of life. For people who have kids, want to stop, & don’t have reasonable access to contraception. #freevasectomy #poorlife

    @johnharveyphoto @glennkirschner2 @YouTube There is no getting this Genie back in the bottle I fear. The GOP let him loose and now they can’t control him or the “crazy” he has conjured up to run amok. This was the cost for their power grab. I truly believe it was worth it to them...😔 Karma couldn’t help, pestilence nope
