* Congressman Blake Farenthold literally wants to shoot Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Shelly Moore Capito because they aren’t willing to kill large numbers of constituents for the sake of a tax cut cut for the rich.

I found it, but also a strange vase someone must have given me at some point and I promptly forgot that is of ideal size and weight for lilies! http://gwydionmisha.tumblr.com/post/163386490977/today-i-discovered-three-more-lily-sprays-ready
