What I really want everyone, not just folks in New York, but EVERYONE to come away with from this, is that ANY of these motherfuckers can be challenged. Their stance in the status quo is THAT flimsy, and their grip is fucking FRAGILE. We CAN change this shit, dude

And they plan to.

Donate to Emergency Move to Madison, Wisconsin, organized by Rae Hoxie After months of job searching and being laid off from my last position, I am now facing… Rae Hoxie needs your support for Emergency Move to Madison, Wisconsin

Hey all, this is something I had hoped I could avoid, some of you may have wondered where I've been for a while. Well, life has been chewing me up and I have finally been delivered an ultimatum.

I'm glad this was so resounding and decisive for all the big reasons but also because it means I will be less tempted to stay up late tonight and be tired for my morning doctor's appointment.

If current numbers hold, Democrats here in Virginia's House of Delegates look to increase their numbers from 51 to 64 seats out of 100.

Screenshot of the NYT’s map showing the bluer or redder margin shifts in Virginia. There’s big blue arrows everywhere 

I’ll give you a hint where the four red ones are - three are in a line down in the south center near the NC border, and one’s almost due east of Richmond

Kentucky’s Republican secretary of state, Michael Adams, has reminded residents of his state that they cannot, in fact, vote in today’s New York City mayor’s race β€” or at all. Perhaps because of intense election coverage by national news outlets, Kentucky officials were getting calls about the polls being closed. But Kentucky has no elections scheduled today.

β€œKentucky votes next year,” Adams wrote in a social media post. β€œYou cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry.”
