    It’s Georgia, though. This is a positive development but it barely begins to make up for how much other ass-backwards stuff there is.

    This is the state that elected Marjorie Taylor Greene, keep in mind.

      This is the state that brought you Biden in 2020. And two democratic senators. Granted there’s a lot of back ass districts here, but we’re working on it I promise.

      That seems completely forgivable when compared to Florida and the men they keep electing governor of that state.
