Might Cynthia Nixon's whopping 16-point increase have something to do with her Tweeting about wanting to legalize recreational marijuana?

I am not unidealistic about voters, but I also worked in a pharmacy for 2 1/2 years.  There is nobody so glued to the phone as a drug addict; it is incredible how mellow people aren't when they're calling a pharmacy every few minutes to ask if their doctors have authorized early refills for addictive substances.

I would not be surprised if people who have never voted for anything before, and who will never vote for anything again, are the people who are voting to legalize recreational marijuana.

Spend 24 hours in homeless shelters.  You will never think that drugs are harmless, glamorous or funny again.

I have said this before; irritation is perhaps not the right word for me to use to describe my feelings about privileged people, who have access to the most pleasant and respectful rehabilitation and psychiatric facilities and who don't know anyone else who has ever had a drug problem who hasn't had access to those same facilities, advocating for recreational drug use.  Irritation is a euphemism for how I feel about that.

Macy's anti-union training video

I was surprised and grateful when Macy's in Boston hired me to work for the 2017-2018 holiday season.  Most of the people with whom I worked were nice and it was fun. Being from Vermont, I had always thought of Macy's as being very ritzy; I think that is Macy's reputation around the world, and perhaps that reputation was accurate in the past.  Unfortunately, the store in Boston is physically disintegrating from what seems to me to be neglect at the corporate office level.  I sent emails about that to Macy's human resources before my employment was ended.  Hopefully, someone will read them and stop this famous American store from being run into the ground.  If the store can be saved, I'd also like to mention that several customers asked about gift-wrapping during the holiday season, and they were all disappointed that Macy's stopped offering that amenity years ago.   Also; I was shocked that part of the training for employment was to watch a video portraying unio

Nobody should think that threatening me with voyeurism and involuntary pornography will make me say what you want me to say, or not say what you don't want me to say.

When I realized that these crimes had started to happen to me, I also knew that people would threaten me with them whenever they didn't like what I was saying.   My response to that was to publish pages about how threatening me with these sexual assaults would not make me say what the people threatening me wanted me to say.   That was in 2011.  Since then, the sexual assaults have escalated so that they are treated as if they are normal, funny and what I deserve.   ALTHOUGH I WISH I WERE NEVER BORN AND NEVER STOP THINKING ABOUT KILLING MYSELF, THOSE ASSAULTS DON'T MAKE ME SAY WHAT THE PEOPLE WHO THREATEN ME WITH THEM WANT ME TO SAY, AND THEY DON'T STOP ME FROM SAYING WHAT THEY DON'T WANT ME TO SAY. THE SICK, SADISTIC, ILLEGAL VIDEOS OF ME AREN'T MY CRIMES!  THEY ARE EVIDENCE OF CRIMES COMMITTED AGAINST ME, AND PEOPLE WHO USE THEM TO TRY TO INTIMIDATE ME SHOULD BE ASHAMED! DO YOU HEAR WHAT I'M TELLING YOU?!  THIS IS YOUR SHAME!  IT'S NOT MY SHAME!  STOP FORCI
