Ugh, we get them here in Wyoming too. Just because we have such a low population, they think they can foist their garbage people on us. And they tend to run for office...Barrasso, Enzi, Cheney...

JOANNA RUSS!! She’s amazing! My mother (who has taught sci-fi as lit in the past, she’s retired now) gave ‘The Female Man’ to me to read when I started puberty. My family is a little odd, but I wouldn’t change them for anything^.^
Some of it might be the office’s problem, too. My dear old dad is a retired employee of the BLM (and as such, part of the DOI. He’s an archaeologist and did cultural resources), and his office was really vigilant about sexual harrassment and that kind of stuff. But every office is different, and I have no doubt that…
We are, even though the GOP and its supporters don’t seem to realize it yet.
Community and supporting each other are gonna be the only ways we get through this kind of okay. I hope.
Thanks! I really hope they do too^.^
Oh, that’s just dispicable! Everyone’s always trying to figure out how to pay the least, while poor and disabled folks suffer. It’s really horrible. I’ve heard such horror stories from friends who have had to really fight the system, it’s horrific.
I have Medicaid. I also live in Wyoming, which is one of the several conservative states that refused to expand their Medicaid programs per the ACA. OUr Medicaid isn’t very good, and since I do also have insurance I prefer not to burden the system more than necessary. But I may not have my insurance for long, and…
Thank you for thinking of me, positive thoughts are always appreciated!
I think that’s one of the worst parts, watching my slightly less left progressive friends do similar tone policing about ‘angry leftists’ because then librals/progressives just put people off, etc. Another is discovering how deep the bigotry and…
I’m too sick and mentally ill to work and it’s terrifying. How can I put money in an HSA if I only receieve $735 a month on SSI (I don’t really qualify for SSD because I got sick before I could work so I hadn’t contributed much to social security) and even though I live with my dad, (I pay rent and help with groceries…
I added up the cash prices of all my meds (I’m chronically ill too. Hi fellow Spoonie!) and then what I actuall pay due to split billing (i have medicaid and insurance, it’s a godsend). Cash, my meds were over $2,000, and that’s not counting all the doctor’s appointments and other medical crap. This is so very scary,…
People think he’s just dumb, but he’s got that kind of animal cunning and malevolence...
Applause from this disabled lady! That’s a huge fear of mine, but I’ve never seen it put so well. These ‘minor changes’ could be absolutely devestating for people like me and my sister, while barely affecting a healthy, able-bodied, neurotypical person. I can’t believe it’s only been a month, with the anxiety and…
I’m chronically ill and disabled. I’m fucking terrified. I’m only 31 and live with my father (I pay rent and help with groceries and bills), if we go back to the land of pre-existing conditions and lifetime insurance caps and I lose my insurance (because of my health, I’m able to stay on my parents’ insurance, but…
The casino thing was a scam! bAsically a fancy Ponzi scheme, if I’m remember right...here’s the articles, my brain isn’t exactly great^.^
Indivisible Wyoming, represent!!
I hope we can make her proud! Wehad over 700 marchers in Casper alone for the Women’s March, it was amazing!
Hi there. I’ a feminist who was born and raised in Wyoming. Still live there. This is a big deal to us. It’s refreshing to see coverage about ANYTHING happening in Wyoming on a national stage. It’s called “news.”
If you don’t like it and don’t care, why the fuck are you commenting? You don’t live here either.
Hey neighbor!! It’s been neat to see allthe Wyoming Jezzies posting. I’ve lived here my whole life, and this is NOT the Wyoming I remember. Yeah, we’ve always been a conservative state, but it was very much a ‘live and let live’ kind of thing. Apparently, that’s not good enough anymore and the state GOP has to start…
We only have the PP in Casper, too.
(also, HI NEIGHBOR!!)
AUGH CHENEY!!!
I actually live just up the street from a house where Lynne grew up in. Uuuugh.
I’ve lived here my whole life, and the Senate/Legislature has pretty much always been a shitshow.
