Two of the most qualified women in the country ran for president against an unqualified, racist game show host who had a history of committing fraud and sexual abuse. And the country was basically split 50-50. That should tell us some things.

america having one of those gender reveals that starts a wildfire that burns for like 30 days

[Moira Donegan @MoiraDonegan]

I don’t think we’re grappled enough with the psychic and dignity harm women have experienced in having a rapist elevated to a position of superlative power and authority by half the country and then kept there for the better part of a decade.

Clearly Kamala’s strategy to once again court republicans did not work the way she wanted but it’s also concerning how many white men saw the blatant racism, xenophobia, and misogyny of Donald Trump and wanted more of it.

Still awaiting the windfall of Liz Cheney votes for the Dems that made this all worth it

[James @exhaustdata]

Thank god democrats secured the Dick Cheney endorsement during an election year marked by some of the largest anti-war demonstrations in history

so exciting how this week we’ll either have the first woman president or the end of america

[Catholics for Choice @Catholic4Choice]

The $1.9 million spent by Catholic dioceses and organizations against abortion rights is a violation of the contract between parishioners and the church — using our donations, which were meant to uplift our communities, to instead fuel the fight to restrict freedoms.

[Ellen Barkin @EllenBarkin]

Why would anyone expect George W Bush to ‘do the right thing’?

[Antigone Journal @AntigoneJournal]

Why is Google Books removing access to out-of-copyright books that it once hosted as open access? There is a good chance that the mass-deaccession policy of libraries, on the ground that "it's available for free online", will be one of the most stupid acts of modern curatorship.

[Talker @ifetalksback]

The thing they’re not saying is that they don’t want to be a farmers wife, they want to be a plantation owners wife

That’s why they don’t envision it being a lot of work

The trad-wife fantasy is based on slave times
