    President Cruz would repeal all of Obama’s executive orders. Including all of the ones that expanded the rights of people. Rubio has pledged to do the same. The fact that so many people are willing to vote Republican is frightening enough… but Sanders supporters who say they’ll “never vote for Hillary” are willing to sacrifice people like me to maintain their own sense of moral superiority.

    I feel the same way with many of the Hillary supporters that I know who say they will vote for Trump before they vote for Sanders. :(

    This is the first I’ve heard of anything like that. What could possibly be their argument?

    Their logic is mainly flawed, but much of it stems around Bernie pushing for single payer health care and affordable secondary school. They seem to think these things are unachievable pipe dreams of a lunatic. They threaten to vote for someone who would set the entire country back like Trump or Cruz if Bernie is nominated. Honestly, I think most of it comes from being butt hurt that Hillary isn’t the guaranteed nominee that they tried forcing on us. Personally, I would gladly vote for her but my preferred candidate is Bernie. I guess that makes me a reasonable person. *shrugs*

    Anyone threatening to vote for Trump if Clinton isn’t the Democratic nominee is a) probably lying and b) definitely an asshole.

    Yep. I’d love to see Sanders make it in, and I’m voting for him if there’s still any chance by the time the Primaries roll around here, but I’ll vote for Clinton in a heartbeat over anyone the GOP has put forward.

    Well said.

    JK BrownTurns Scrap
    Metal Into Incredible Animals

    Etsy | Facebook

    Today we want to show
    you really amazing sculptures made from metal by JK Brown. “I live in
    rural West Wales. This peaceful part of the country is known for being a
    precious habitat for its native wildlife, which is of constant
    inspiration to me. For as long as I can remember I have loved to watch
    animals (especially in the wild) and for as long as I can remember I
    have been drawing, making and creating as a way of celebrating the
    beauty of nature. Often when I’m out walking I pick up fragments of
    metal that have been thrown away. Sometimes fly-tipped or washed up on
    beaches, I patiently reassemble these pieces into monuments to the
    natural world around me: a habitat that is becoming increasingly
    fragmented. I find that my own process of reversing this fragmentation
    is, for me, a calming antidote to the madness of endless consumption.”  Source: beautifullife

    Since we got here we’d started to accrue more books, we’d got back to cooking for ourselves and today we brought music back in.
