Awwww yeaaaaaaah. It’s movie-watching, doctor who scarf crocheting time!

Ooo, I like sarcasm! I also have a low tolerance for bs. I shall check it out. Thank you!

The paper I was passing out in the picture was voting information for the midterms in 2014, and also historical information about women and the vote. My husband made them up for me and I had a blast passing them out several times. I need an updated pamphlet, tho.

This makes me even more glad the voter id laws were declared unconstitutional in NC. Here’s hoping it will happen where you live! I had to use my id to vote in the primary but not in the general. Progress!

People will come up to me and start singing that song when I’m out in the suffragette outfit. The funny thing is that I was basing mine off the movie Iron Jawed Angels, where Hillary Swank played Alice Paul, instead of the Mary Poppins English suffragette. (clues can be found in my sign, and in the colors of the sash.

I’ve flirted with forums before, but not seriously. I’ve been a little intimidated by it.

My husband and I early voted in Raleigh, NC. The line on the first Sunday of early voting was 2 hours on average. A good chunk of that was due to the fact that we had less early voting sites overall, and most of them didn’t open until a week or two later. There’s been a lot of voter suppression and disenfranchisement

I’m trying to wait patiently. It’s hard, esp. since we’ve been trying for so long, and we aren’t young. I’m proud of myself for finally going to the fertility doc, even knowing the cost, and the needles. I have a severe needle phobia that I’ve been working on with valium and what amounts to exposure therapy. I

I’ve heard about that uke version. It hits my feels too!

My husband thinks I’ve already got supernose. I’ve been smelling the cat litter box and he’s all No It Smells Fine, but I swear I can freaking taste it, it’s so strong. And yesterday I smelled bad coffee at Sweet Tomatoes, but neither me nor my mom could see anyone drinking coffee close by. I tested yesterday, but it

*nod* It’s always weird and stressful no matter what side of the fertility battle you are on. I remember having the same feelings being late on birth control. Though apparently I need not have bothered, lol. But I’m usually a freaking CLOCK, so being late is definitely unusual for me. If I still haven’t started

Considering the awful voting suppression for minorities, black people as a whole were not allowed to vote. And it’s STILL FREAKING HAPPENING, which is infuriating. (See the voting purge in my state, NC, and gerrymandering.) Yeah, women winning the right to vote was a huge deal, but it only enfranchised white women for

Is the lateness a good thing or a bad thing? I’m late as well, and desperately hoping the fertility treatments worked. I hope whatever you want is what happens. Now I go back to my blanket fort to hide for the day. (I’ve been a little teary but my main symptom has been fatigue and dizziness in the afternoon. The

It was an insidious program, too. Any regular person could purge voter rolls by mailing voters and if the mail gets returned, then they obvs. aren’t living there anymore and aren’t valid voters, ergo their registration gets cancelled. Considering that poor people, a larger majority of which are black in my state,

Burr is a horrid little shit-stain. I voted for Deborah Ross in early voting, and I hope hope hope she wins. It’s way closer a race than I prefer. Burr needs to GO, and so does McCrory.

I like that idea.

This makes my framer heart weep. It’s all so horrible, but the wanton destruction of the family photos and the framed art/diplomas hurts me in a visceral way.

... That particular show... which one are you talking about? There was this one from 2010...

Okay, her little “heh-heh” snicker as she’s getting into the driver’s seat made me fall of my chair laughing.

YAAAAAASSSS This is my music, this is my JAM. GIVE ME ALL THE MURDER BALLADS.
