31, she/her.
Even with no end in sight
And though my feet are on the ground
The wind has left me light
And suddenly, I feel spellbound!
We are unique, like two bright stars
And in this world, we will be loved
For who we truly are!

They gave it to the guy who figured out how to turn chlorine gas into a chemical weapon, they gave it to (at least one that we know of) a serial rapist, they gave it to a guy who worked for AstraZenaca which sponsored the prize, and from 1901 - 2019 they gave it to 950 people and only 54 were women

You can’t buy a championship. If you could, the Mets would have won a few years ago, and the Yankees would have more than zero rings in the last 17 years.

You *can* buy your way into the playoffs, then roll the dice from there.

Reminder that Miguel Rojas hit the biggest homer of the MLB season.
Total bitch move by Tucker. Like Durant to Golden State. Laughable. Embarrassing if they don't win the World Series

Memo to Moderate Democrats: “Abolish ICE” Is Not a Fringe Position.
For goodness sakes, Democrats: Bill Kristol is in favor of ICE abolition. Can you really not get there?

i'm often sympathetic to dems, people yell at them to Do Something without a clear notion of what, or without factoring in trade offs

but here it's a specific ask & we're just asking them to catch up to were everyone else already is

i think we should push this one hard

Journalists, legislators, influencers: don’t go to the nyt for honest and fair coverage of trans ppl. Go to ProPublica, 19th, Mother Jones and the dozens of independent websites that work in the public interest.

I do think there are areas in which yelling DO SOMETHING at Dems is mostly an expression of powerlessness and frustration because there is little they really can do but this is not one of those cases

ordinary people are doing extraordinary things right now and they need to see that you’re with them

If this guy were president, these concerns might have more legs. But if midterms happen this November without Donald Trump's approval, he personally is going to scream about it a lot & then take a nap, & his goons have made an art of losing in court & on the street.

I didn't care about rankings last year and I don't care about them today. Rankings are generally silly, whether it's institutions or people.

my counter to this always is that i think ppl actually extremely underestimate their own dysphoria. very similar to like growing up in an abusive environment and not realizing how fucked up it is until you go somewhere else and talk about it and everyone's like wow what the fuck that's so fucked up

Voting is ongoing, but the amendment is officially dead. Voting sits at 127-238. Dems have been unified in voting nay. More than 40 Republicans have joined them.
HR 7006, an appropriations bill, just started debates on amendments & the first one under consideration is a fascist one! Specifically, the amendment would cut funding of the DC District & Appeals Court by 20% & would not fund the salaries or expenses of staff of Judges Boasburg and Broadman.

And when I say "this" I mean: the actual Democratic primary electorate is very pro Palestine overall, according to the data, and there will be as a result more pressure than ever from related focus groups to bind Democratic primary candidates to promises and positions that follow them into office.

If you're not foregrounding that the Greenland debacle would be illegal, immoral, and requires resources that are not the president's to use then you need to get a job outside of journalism. Exact same failings as the 51st state stuff last year. These people are morons but this isn't a joke

Will Stancil really does have the exact type of personality that ends up leading revolutions, and I mean that in both the most laudatory and derogatory senses possible, including the fact that he would inevitably get purged after six months because of his inability to ever compromise or back down.
