😁 I suspect Vance's multiple women close to him having abortions is about as true as refugees eating cats and dogs in Springfield, OH. Vance's whole life has been a lie (Hillbilly Elegy). Why should he stop now?

The vice presidential candidate we saw tonight tried to reanimate the carcass of the man who wrote Hillbilly Elegy, a persona Vance had seemingly discarded sometime after January 6 as he sought to be Trump’s running mate.

Stephen King got in right in The Dead Zone just instead of an "American Truthway Bible" the guy was selling "Hillbilly Elegy."

I hope that people watching Vance's smooth answers will consider what it means that this person may very well have presidential power if DJT is elected. We know what he believes. He has attested to it again and again. Believe him. Content over performance.

Elegy in Riders :D Thought it'd be nice to have her in the first game. Mist only in ZG onwards though... This is incomplete, I'll clean up eventually. My hand REALLY hurts so I'll take my time ;; w ;; #SonicOC #SonicFanCharacter #Sonic #SonicRiders #SonicAU #WIP #ColoredSketch #Sketch

"senator j.d. vance, would you bomb the ever loving shit out of iran?" "well, let me tell you about iran..."

it's a screen cap of J.D. Vance at the debate and he's reading from Hillbilly Elegy because so many of his answers seem to come back to that bullshit book.

you're a posh boy now, fucking accept it.

If only I could find rest in all life's scenarios, in the diverse, simple, honest crannies where there's just a bed in which to sleep and a bucket in which to vomit up every last thing that, giving me, you took away, o Lord, to vomit up incessantly-Elegy by Mariana Marin #Poetry #LiteratureSky 💙📚👀

Elegy

O Lord,

if only I could rest in a mountain sanatorium among pink and blue pills, a sanatorium with a strong scent of fir trees and soft carpets, with coquettish, neurotic ladies suffering from nice, small, conjugal conflicts. If only I had a trauma like measles, the pitter of a summer shower, a neurosis like silk, after which you are even more loved; a neurosis like the steam of chamomile tea, after which you're even more dazed, celestial, and then the tide of your femininity assaults the world, cures it, gives it the thrills of a treasure known only to it. If only I could find rest in all life's scenarios, in the diverse, simple, honest crannies where there's just a bed in which to sleep and a bucket in which to vomit up every last thing that, giving me, you took away, o Lord, to vomit up incessantly.

Meinen Werdegang habe ich in meinem Buch Hillbilly Elegy (Dt. Übersetzung: das traurige Sauerland Gedicht) dargelegt! Ich stamme aus einem armen Elternhaus und hab dann ne Weile als Marine die US-Ölinteressen mit Gewalt durchgesetzt. Wieso reduziert man mich auf meine Neigung zu attraktiven Sofas?
