So! This is the subject of a boatload of legal debate. Nebraska, Tennessee, Idaho, South Dakota, and Kentucky all attempted to rescind their ratification in the 70s and that’s probably not constitutional but it also hasn’t really been tested.

Senate probably is, but I thought Governor was settled. Not true?

No, it’s 50% + 1, as in one more vote than half. 

Hey! Martin Dilan wasn’t actually an IDC member (though that’s a common mistake). Rachel May, upstate, was an IDC challenger who beat David Valesky and is the third woman to replace an IDC senator.

Yeah, Jennifer Aniston has gone on the record saying she hated it because it was too hard to maintain without professional help! It is not a low maintanance look. https://www.glamour.com/story/jennifer-aniston-hated-the-rachel-cut

If you had asked me to guess which states were angry at Gretchen Carlson, Georgia, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania would not have been my guess.

Fairytale: A True Story (1997) was one of my favorite movies growing up and despite Elsie admitting the photos were fake I still strongly wish to believe they were real.

I’m curious why you think that. I would like that to be true, I’m just not sure it is? She’s the only female Democratic senator not supported by Emily’s List because she’s not particularly pro-choice. She has an 84% from NARAL, which is not terrible but is also the same as Joe Donnelly and just barely higher than Joe…

Because I got away, I convinced myself there was nothing to report. I convinced myself that because it was attempted rape, not completed, no one would care. I didn’t tell anyone for 4 years and even then I played it off as not a big deal. We tell ourselves all kinds of things so that we don’t have to be a victim. I…

Watching the results come in last night was certainly a mixed bag. It was sad to see the progressive challengers lose at the statewide level but so much good happened at the district level. I took the day off from work yesterday and spent 8 hours knocking on doors in Corona for Jessica Ramos; I almost cried when they…

Also, Planned Parenthood announced their new president, Dr. Leana Wen, who seems great!

Yeah I have no delusions about being a good guy in this story. I was terrible in middle school. Everyone is terrible in middle school. 

Oh! I have a story where everyone involved (including me!) is an asshole.

Hot damn. She looks better less than a year after almost dying in childbirth than I ever looked in my entire life. 

not if that shit is a watermelon 

Is that where he went?! None of the other guardian angels lived up to him.

Friendly reminder for anyone looking for an actually good show starring a fat woman, Drop Dead Diva is seriously underrated and Brooke Elliott is a goddess.

Jezzies with jobs: give me your best job hunting advice!

Oh good, I was starting to worry that this shit would just be sexist rather than sexist and anti-semitic.
