Sigh of relief about Louisiana, but ugh.
TW.
On this day 7 years ago we got our daughter's Down syndrome diagnosis. Down syndrome was the good result - she had very high odds for T18 and T13 also. Her brain abnormality plus either of those would have been almost certainly incompatible with life. In babies with Down syndrome it's often okay. We're lucky. She's healthy and we are healthy and she's amazing and awesome. Having been in the genetic counselor's office talking about the potentially really shitty outcomes though, holy wow must the anguish be worse when you have no ability to consult your medical care team about all of your medical options.

Hot damn! Have you seen this? Check out @sayshummingbird’s Tweet: Wow. No wonder so many people are terrified of her and have no clue what to do with her. That was awesome.

That is a good article. But it makes me wonder: is it enough to merely work toward undoing what hath been wrought? Maybe in a case such as Northam, who is in a position of such power, it is. But for the average repenting racist? I don't know what that restitution looks like.

Justin Fairfax has a second accuser and Buzzfeed is saying that Klobuchar threw a binder at someone’s head. This month keeps getting worse.

Fairfax must resign. Northam should appoint Perriello to replace him. Then Northam can gtfo too.

I don't even know if that's legal in Virginia but it's what I want.

Meanwhile, my uncle’s MAGA friends are making fun of AOC on FB for saying “super legal” in that video. I’m now trolling them with orange’s flubs to make my day better.

I feel like when I have time to check in it’s when the bad things happen. (This was my first official week of prek special education!)
I’m so ducking pissed at the men in Virginia who ran for office, let us work our asses off, and had disgusting skeletons in their closet.
