if i was in charge of the sorcerer john wellington wells would be a butch lesbian and alexis would die instead bc honestly fuck that guy.

if i was in charge of iolanthe she would be amphibious in nature (twenty-five years at the bottom of that stream will do that to a gal)

There are 770,000 Venezuelan refugees in the US. Let's be sure to protect them too. Here's a list of refugee resettlement orgs by state that you can volunteer with or donate to: rcusa.org/resources/st... Here's a map highlighting resettlement clusters:

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.
