Keep in mind that that cover has likely been airbrushed and photoshopped beyond recognition of the original shot. But yeah, I didn’t look like that a few weeks after giving birth... and I still don’t! :)

Also, everyone was making several trips a week to a tanning bed back then. Many of us *ahem* thought walking around, being orange was hot. Also, we thought wearing super low rise jeans with a high rise thong was hot. Also, we thought that a french tip manicure to set it off would be hot. Basically, we all looked like…

This elicited an actual laugh for me this morning (not mine; shared to a local FB group) - something I realized I haven’t done much lately.

Right out of the John McCain playbook...

Only Murkowski can get away with it.

Sweet mother of God. Well, this is exactly what I expected to happen, but somehow I’m still shocked? Here’s a very short list, off of the top of my head, of organizations/people who think this guy shouldn’t sit on the SCOTUS bench, or at the very least have called for an *actual* investigation:

I’ve been out here canvassing for Joe Donnelly in Indiana and I get an earful from LOTS of folks, esp independents (in this state, Independent usually means that you vote Dem most of the time). The last door I knocked on last weekend was a guy who just shook his head when I introduced myself - then he looked at me and…

Yep. This is exactly right. A majority of Millenials skew left and left-center, and apparently will outnumber Baby Boomers by next year (http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/03/01/millennials-overtake-baby-boomers/), who we know are majority Republican (https://news.gallup.com/poll/181325/baby-boomers-likely-ident…

When #MeToo ramped up last fall, my husband was in absolute shock - he couldn’t believe that an overwhelming majority of women have sexual assault in common. I was in disbelief that this was news to him. It never even occurred to me that he wouldn’t know this, but I realized that I’ve never talked with him about the…

Yeah, I have experienced it from gay male friends of mine. We sometimes forget that these guys were raised in the same toxic culture, and while it affected a lot of them differently than their straight counterparts, that sure doesn’t mean that they didn’t absorb some of the toxic messaging. :/

It’s also a hit at Booker. Graham all but named him when trying to call out “political grandstanding” and further aspirations during confirmation hearings.

McConnell described Mitchell as a “female assistant”

She’s a terrible person. Being with a rapey, narcissistic prick doesn’t account for her sociopathy.

Right. He’s straddles the middle so hard, but at this point it’s a big win simply not to have a Koch-backed piece of shit in that seat - at least it’s a start!

Have to give a shoutout to my at-risk Dem senator in this solidly red state: Joe Donnelly seems to have removed himself from the list of red state Dems who might have ended up voting to confirm Kavanaugh. Heidi Heitkamp is calling for full investigation of the sexual assault charges. Maybe by the end of this,…

You are welcome.

Okay, well these guys are into it:

Doubt it. Even with the most pointed intentions, this administration is still a fucking clown show.

Damn.
