It resulted in thousands showing up on the state capital steps to witness a performance of The Vagina Monologues.

I got him literally on post 1 of his career, and him dead now. Wow, what a page of hate-filled alt-right woman-hating militaristic assholery that was, making claims for the Constitution that never ever existed in real life or history. Clearly you and I don't know our places as women -- our military is the reason we have voting privileges at all, and if we continue to abuse those privileges the military will see they are taken away. I'm real skeered, you can tell. |

47. There's a certain sense of foreshadowing
A black swan is an event or occurrence that deviates beyond what is normally expected of a situation and is extremely difficult to predict; the term was popularized by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a finance professor, writer and former Wall Street trader. Black swan events are typically random and are unexpected.
