- This trend is giving me life. College is cool, knowledge is great. The liberal arts is rad. Being well rounded is the GOAT. Fund all colleges and universities. We should be throwing money at them. Make it affordable for all. Let people take underwater basket weaving if they choose.

- I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

- Rachel Reeves: "It is not right that people who don't go to university bear the cost for others to." I don't use local leisure centres and I don't drive, so will I be made exempt for taxation that pays for all that stuff? Or is it only education we'll be going after

- The mom who we all saw turning the wheel and trying to drive away was actually a domestic terrorist trying to run over a poor ICE agent, and now the nurse who we all saw coming to the aid of another ICE victim was actually a deranged shooter who had to be taken down.
