offering this in case it’s useful to anyone: when I’m especially scared, it helps me to remind myself that probably all of my women ancestors had harder lives than I’ve had. & their strength is in me, is part of the fabric of who I am & what I can perhaps do
For the first time in history, the United States has a sitting congressperson who is transgender.
Congratulations to Sarah McBride, whose race was just called by MSNBC.
She wins in a year where a historic amount of anti-trans ads were blared across TV screens in America.
I’m hearing there are many long lines to vote across Pennsylvania on college campuses because of record youth voter turnout.
PENNSYLVANIA STUDENTS: IF YOU ARE IN LINE TO VOTE STAY IN LINE TO VOTE YOU CANNOT BE TURNED AWAY SO LONG AS YOU ARE IN LINE.
Has it occurred to anyone that maybe pumpkinface would not fight defeat as hard this time, if the money to pay for lawyers would be... uh... his own? Like, how far down that road would donors (or Trmp) go once it occurs to them that cutting the nonsense = pretty big win for them?
Donald Trump is on the brink of a successful comeback against Kamala Harris after defeat and disgrace is unprecedented. He has not only imposed his will on his party, but has convinced a remarkable number of Americans to accept his many lies. https://t.co/GJV5eYRHcn

It is quite another to realize this same half of the country will push the most odious and incompetent old racist bigot into the gig, thinking this somehow means victory for *themselves.*
It is mystifying to see Americans aggressively forsaking so much of their own power.
It is one thing to realize that half the country is willing to give up on self-rule and turn it over to one person who can supposedly "fix" everything if he can fill the govt with only zombie puppets who do not think but just carry out his brilliant orders.
I want retailers to be forced to accept all plastic they use in packaging and to recycle 100 percent of it or else stop using it. I am so disgusted getting stuck with (hidden) plastic.
From cutting children's disability benefits to allowing employers to pocket workers' tips, Trump tried to slash protections for the working poor in ways that have been forgotten by many. https://t.co/SIQ6lHT6N8
