She reminds me of me, an earnest but awkward wonk. :(

This might seem like a drop in the bucket, but for us women of Texas, this is huge. I have cried in the parking lot of a PP in Fort Worth after finding out that a new IUD would cost me $600 out of pocket. My insurance was through a religious organization and had no coverage for BC. There are so many women who fall…

True story: recently started having sex. Going to graduate from college soon. *literally* looking at jobs based on the greatest access to abortion women have. My first gift to myself once I get a job? An iud. Outside of my parents health insurance because they’re super religious. I am too but am done with others…

Take the job.

a) 28 is not too old to do anything.

He’ll come or he won’t, but either way I would take that job in your shoes. And I think you’re at a great age to explore and get to know a new city! Old enough to feel confident doing it, young enough to still make new friends easily. It’s basically perfect.

Girl, get thee to Chicago. I totally get it being scary to upend your life—and at 28, you feel like you should have this all sorted by now (I’m not much older than you, so I’m with you on your late 20s being hard!)—but you owe it to yourself to go for this opportunity. He doesn’t have to move for your job, but it…

Take the job. You need to focus on yourself and your future.

I love great orators. I’ve even written for one. But please explain to me how being a great speaker is going to make my life or my daughter’s life better? I want someone to get in there and get shit done.

Oh my gosh she’s adorable.

Well a common sexist stereotype of woman in power is that they’re shrill.

These are the kind of supporters who would be disappointed when Bernie couldn’t finish his entire agenda in two years, forget to vote in the midterms, and then call him an ineffective president when a Republican Congress blocks all his legislation.

Am I starting to sound bitter about other Sanders supporters? That’s…

And there it is. It is no longer about Sanders, if it ever was. It's just about your precious unsustainable imaginary future and not the hard god damn work it's going to take to get there. Privilege plain and simple, what will it hurt if Trump gets elected? They won't feel any pain from his insanity.

One of my former high school teachers linked to this article on Facebook. It made me feel a lot better about voting for Hillary.

I just can’t believe the amount of stupid, misogynist anti-Hilary nonsense coming from Sanders supports. So, Wikileaks and Vladimir Putin conspire to make the DNC look bad, and the smoking gun is one email from a staffer suggesting they ask Bernie “tough questions” at a town hall meeting. All this is supposedly…

Holy shit yes. I am absolutely terrified of what a Trump presidency could mean.

I need to say more election related affirmations to myself in the mornings.

ugh Yes. The Jill Stein/Gary Johnson people are the worst. “Let’s send a message about our political system!” Is your message that you want Trump to be president?
