55. Just my two cents

but poor schmuck gets paid either way. Post-It notes like this are a form of good trouble, IMHO. Like the ones women were leaving in public restrooms to remind each other that their controlling husbands wouldn't be able to find out they voted for Kamala. It's not like they have to scrape them off or anything.

I started leaving Post-Its near the shelf tags in grocery stores during W's reign of error to inform shoppers of the political leanings/donations of the brands they were buying, and now I carry around those "I DID THAT!" stickers with Traitor Tot's stupid, white-man overbite face on them and leave them on egg cartons and gas pumps and such.

Unfortunately, we now live in a world where many people are so uninformed or misinformed that sound bites or their equivalent (like a short note) are often the best way to reach them.
