40 Pounds Of Butt In 30 Pound Butt Capacity Pants

it is for us the living

While I received with much satisfaction your address replete with expressions of esteem, I rejoice in the opportunity of assuring you that I shall always retain grateful remembrance of the cordial welcome I experienced on my visit to Newport from all classes of citizens.

The reflection on the days of difficulty and danger which are past is rendered the more sweet from a consciousness that they are succeeded by days of uncommon prosperity and security.

If we have wisdom to make the best use of the advantages with which we are now favored, we cannot fail, under the just administration of a good government, to become a great and happy people.

The citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy—a policy worthy of imitation. All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship.

It is now no more that toleration is spoken of as if it were the indulgence of one class of people that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent natural rights, for, happily, the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.

It would be inconsistent with the frankness of my character not to avow that I am pleased with your favorable opinion of my administration and fervent wishes for my felicity.

May the children of the stock of Abraham who dwell in this land continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other inhabitants—while everyone shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree and there shall be none to make him afraid.

May the father of all mercies scatter light, and not darkness, upon our paths, and make us all in our several vocations useful here, and in His own due time and way everlastingly happy.

Made this post about 15 minutes after the repair guy who fixed the pump on my dishwasher packed up his tools and left, as the dishwasher was whirring along doing my dishes from that morning.

Ever since starting to publish romance novels I’ve been checking out the romance books at the thrift store specifically for the clinch covers, as a reference for what I might want to do with my own books.

I did expect Tumblr to talk more about the Venezuelan earthquakes, though.

What with all the charity work people allegedly do on here.

Prev that is because leftist can't blame Israel or jews or America for an unfortunate natural disaster that has undeniably gotten worse for its victims thanks to a corrupt and failing socialist government. Although they definitely have tried anyway!

Plus venezuelans don't have the same framing of noble savage revolutionaries against an evil empire facing a literal genocide palestinians have been given by western lefties for the antisocial marxists to "care" about them as much and at the same time they pedal propalestinianism. Which might also explain why there's virtually no tumblr venezuela donation scams

But we can fix that!!

World Central Kitchen is on the ground feeding survivors. This is the direct donation link for their Caracas campaign.

Catholic Relief Services is running a rebuilding campaign for those who have lost their homes. You can donate here.

GoFundMe has created a page of fundraisers they have verified are real survivors and/or charities running global campaigns via GFM. While normally I'd say "donate to a charity directly because they can help more people with the same dollar," I'm going to advise that this may be worth a look. I see at least one person who desperately needs insulin, and unlike the "we totally vetted this guy" Tumblr posts, GFM actually has a legal obligation if they say it. They're actually doing the work with professional tools.

The United Way is a unique charity in that what it does is fund many other, smaller charities. They use their reach and size to collect money, then distribute it to the tiny local places doing a lot of good work on a budget of two nickels and a piece of chewing gum. They're collecting for Venezuela here.
