A good morning for reading suggestions to help process fury. Because I wrote it, I’ll start with my book, Good and Mad, about the history & political power of women’s anger, now in paperback (& on sale in hardcover). BUT WAIT THERE’S LOTS MORE: https://t.co/YGLY9GgoAK

The most important thing we can do in this moment is unite to defeat Susan Collins. With that in mind, I’m leaving the senate race. Statement below.

I looked at this too and would amend it slightly: a hell of a lot of people just used "Troy" or "Shenna" in their statements, especially the former.

This is how many times each top candidate is mentioned in statements of intent from prospective #MESEN Dem delegates:
-“Jackson” 474 times
-“Shah” 276 times
-“Bellows” 100 times
-“Jordan Wood” mentioned 2 times
-“Dan Kleban” mentioned … zero times

Writing again about Maine, its politics, the national circus around it, and what's to be gleaned about performance, power-building and our view of humanity in the wake of the unspeakably evil killing of Joan Sebastian Guerrero. https://t.co/LtfgXDAdWX

There is exactly one person I want to read on Graham Platner, sex, and power right now, and that person is @rtraister

"We don't talk enough about how shared anger can also bring people together. It's the building blocks of organizing and of movements; it's also how people support each other."

Believe it or not since it’s a Thursday past 10pm ET, but several very important election results will drop in the next hour or 2:

—the by-election in Manchester that may end up producing a new Prime Minister in UK,
—ranked-choice voting results in Maine, with Gov race at stake.

[Andy O'Brien @aobrien2010]

I don’t think these people understand how small the Maine media market is. The Mills ads about the rape comments & tattoo ran everywhere. Graham is also everywhere, but in person answering everyone’s questions. His signs are all over the place in Maine.

@aseitzwald Though this is a riff on what it's been like having ANY conversation in Maine for the past eight months: I went to high school with Graham Platner! I went to kindergarten with Graham Platner! I knew Graham Platner's third grade teacher! I played sports with Graham Platner!

[Alex Seitz-Wald @aseitzwald]

Great piece, but it's funny seeing all these people tweet the headline who I'm like 99% sure are not, in fact, Maine Reporter @thejoshkeefe. https://t.co/PomDyXtChq

[Kirkus Reviews @KirkusReviews]

.@rtraister appeared on @TheDailyShow to discuss her new book, ANGRY GIRLS WILL GET US THROUGH. The book, adapted for young readers by Ruby Shamir from Traister’s adult nonfiction, was published last month by Simon & Schuster. @simonkids https://t.co/qO7JL3wTbi

Absolutely horrific.

very interesting read from @rtraister >

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

The connection between Mira Nair’s career as an artist and her son’s as a politician is far more significant than the fact that they share some Hollywood stardust, @rtraister writes. https://t.co/PH9HNEkArC

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Honestly an incredible moment; Senator Kennedy expressing what appears to be total shock when learning about a major component of the Trump admin's war on legal immigration.

[Shaifali Puri @ShaifaliP]

The great @rtraister on the great Mira Nair.
