5 Friends Uncensored (via 5friendsvote)
PSA from hella celebs telling people not to vote (irony!). Portman hits the screen 33 seconds in. And Anthony Kiedis! Where has that dude been?
The interesting thing here is that I think these folks are actually asking most Americans note to vote.
“Don’t vote! seriously, you’re probably gonna make the wrong decision anyway.”
I repect your right not to talk about it, but you better be doing it.
