more ticking clocks on twitter this morning. There's a lot of speculation that someone has tapes containing damning Russiagate evidence. I'll be obsessively refreshing twitter from 4 p.m. onward

Can we do that again?

I took the week off to move and pretend to get the new house in order. Half of me enjoyed not having constant alarm over the antics of Trump and the GOP; the other half knew they were up to shit and I was just burying my head in the sand while insulated in my diverse, liberal bubble. So I'm back and ready to discuss!

In Wonder Woman-related news, I think I'm going to change my avatar. Nobody forget who I am, k?

I took the weekend off from the news and it was nice. Now I'm ready to focus on Trumpcare and doubling down on getting everyone I know to call their Senators.

Thanks! Me too! And now I don't have to feel like I wore the same dress to the party as sterling.

I'm listening to the podcast episode of With Friends Like These from last week where Ana interviews people waiting in line for the Trump rally in Iowa....I'm thinking maybe a bad choice for Monday morning.

Makes other white women feel better about their Trump votes. Throws out tidbits of hope for things like paid parental leave. Distracts people with her cute kids speaking Chinese.
