i read the biography by ron chernow and oh yesss, they were at the very least, having an emotional affair. when hamilton wrote to laurens to tell him about his upcoming marriage, he would write about eliza in such a way as to not make laurens jealous! very interesting, indeed!

my teenager dresses just like her. the 90s are back with a vengeance!

on my npr station this morning, during a local segment, the host talked to the mayor of one of my state’s largest cities. we neighbor texas, which has one of the highest cases in the usa now. he bragged that since texas is closed down, that we would get visitors from TX and it would help our local economy. im…

have you watched trial by media on netflix? each episode focuses on a different crime in america that was blown up by the media, and how it affected the outcomes of the trials. it is infuriating. but really good!

here’s a question that i would love some advice or thoughts on. im a white woman living in a red state in the midwest/south. for a while now, i have been wanting to get a black lives matter sign for my yard. of course i want to get one to show my support and maybe even prompt a conversation with a neighbor. but there…

i have security clearance for a federal organization, and i am just a glorified receptionist. every few years, i get “revetted”. this includes my debt history, my credit, who i associate with, etc. they even contact those people and ask them in excruciating detail about who i am as a person. i literally just answer…

ooh, tell me more about this perm! that’s the kind that just gives you loose waves, right? how did you do it, what brand, what is your hair type normally? i have thin, fine hair and always dream of tousled waves.

my ex, who i am still friends with, is a Bernie Bro. before warren announced she was running, he actually had a Warren sticker on his car. last election, he told me he would “totally vote for warren if she ran. but can’t stand that hillary!” i met up with him for lunch last weekend and the warren sticker was…

agreed 100%. wapo wrote a piece on it yesterday, too.

with his recent church gathering, i foresee a cult in his future, 100%

why do you think dems don’t vote in the same way that republicans do? is it that whole sanctimonious need, to find the purest of the pure? i am a dem myself, and have always voted fervently (even in the boring local elections). what can we do to get more of us out? i keep hoping that 2016 is the wake up call for most…

i would love to see it, too! please reply when she finishes it!

i have a liberal friend who, last election time, proudly proclaimed that if warren was running, he would *totally* vote for her. he just didn’t like clinton.

have you had a shower orange? it even has its own subreddit, people rave about the experience that much. r/showerorange
