The betting markets on Clinton went from 80% to 75%—which is a big fall for a day—but not enough to substantially change the race. This *may* reflect in a 1-2% point loss in polling for HRC. Before this, she held a 4-6% pt lead.

I think it’s important to separate two types of backlash.

It’s funny that you take the time to quote someone and then just follow up w/ your subjective opinions about how they’re boring and obvs. need a hobby.

It is curable! Particularly if it’s drug susceptible. Even drug resistant TB has a pretty good cure rate in the U.S. (although the drugs do a lot of damage). I was lucky to have drug susceptible TB. Unfortunately, outside of the US and Europe, too many people still die of TB.

It’s so sad the way we vilify those with infectious diseases. I recently had active tuberculosis and had to have an entire contact investigation done (including everyone I’d spent three hours w/ in the past year—at work, bars I went to, etc.). That sucked. And it sucked worse when I realized I’d infected people…

I have no idea who Van Jones is, but Anderson Cooper and Jake Tapper are fucking KILLING it. Anderson with his whole, “I’m gonna pin you down motherfucker” at the second debate.

Let’s not forget that he—Newt Gingrich—also said Kelley was fascinated with sex.

Hey, you guys.

I think there’s few different reasons. . . .

I also moved from the NW to the South (Well, from Alaska, which I count as the NW). There were things that were tough about it and I’d love to move back to the NW one day (real NW, not Alaska). But there were also great things! (And it’s cheap!). I’ve heard Mobil is not that bad of a place—near the water, etc. Also:…

Let’s not forget about how Duterte joked about the gang rape and murder of an Australian missionary. This is not directly pertinent to Duterte’s current relationship w/ Obama, but adds even more evidence to the conclusion that DUTERTE IS A FUCKING MONSTER. Even though the US wants to maintain relationships with the…

And Lawrence knew it was going to happen or saw it happening in real time. She repeatedly said she knew some kind of backlash was coming. It’s so freaking gross.

What you’re describing (building women up—tearing them down) is a demonstrable pattern of behavior on our part. And, frankly, I think it poisons the water for all of us. It’s a hyped up version of how we treat women more generally and it’s gross behavior and creates a gross environment for women.

This is so fucking funny. I just can’t.

What did y’all think of the last Anne Of Green Gables—the one where Anne and Gilbert were, inexplicably, spies during World War I? Were you as heartbroken as I was??!!

I think he’s a stupid narcissist. Which is just as dangerous as a smart narcissist. But in different ways.

Yes! This! Hitler was considered a “useful idiot.” The German president (Hindenburg) and his advisors thought they could control Hitler if they made him chancellor. Worked out well for them.

It’s becoming soul-draining to watch his “campaign” drag is lifeless body to the finish line.

OMG, did you see him with his notes afterwards?

Phillip Reyes, the bombastic + aggressive aide who played Trump in her debate prep, gave her a hug afterwards and told her she was a “badass hombre.”
