Wine and whiskey fix almost anything. Shameless flirt, kind of geeky, and a whole lot of awkward.





what’s a clear example of medical misogyny you’ve witnessed or experienced?

Is there anyone Who did NOT work at McDonalds?







Nearly 70 million married women do not have a birth certificate matching their legal name. This accounts for 25% of the voting age population. The SAVE Act is voter suppression and an attempt to rig the election. I'm voting NO.









146M Americans do not have a passport. 40M eligible voters do not have access to their birth certificate. 69M women do not have a birth certificate that matches their married name. The SAVE Act denies the right to vote for millions of Americans by requiring specific forms of ID that millions of U.S. citizens do not have, and requiring them to effectively pay a poll tax, which is illegal, in order to get those documents to vote. The SAVE Act is voter suppression. Republicans know that Trump has made them deeply unpopular, so they know they need to cheat to win.




PASS THE SAVE ACT NOW! I was able to obtain an ID as a black, disabled, widowed, HOMELESS, mother of 5. I used my married name, in a wheelchair, rode the bus and I had to get my ID through General Delivery at the Post Office. But I got it. This was me in 2017. Shortly after we’d lost everything. Everything in this pic was given to me by people I’d met along the way. My wheelchair came from a free clinic. They gave it to me when they saw my sons carrying me on their backs because all the ligaments were torn in my knee. That purse was given to me by the stripper next door in the motel where we stayed. I was kind to her when she was struggling. Those sunglasses came from a bar tender who would see me roll past him in my wheelchair. I liked to sing karaoke at a casino across the street from the motel. Despite my circumstances, my life was manageable. It wasn’t great. But we were pushing through. So when someone says that there’s some reason to not pass the Save Act because it’s not fair, show them this tweet. I voted for President Trump in 2016 because when he said, “What the hell do you have to loose?” Because I was being evicted, car getting repossessed, and disabled with no health care. People like me are the ones who suffer when waste, fraud, and abuse are allowed to happen because of unsecured elections. PASS THE SAVE ACT NOW!

Here are the facts: the 7 states where 2/3 of Americans don't have a passport. All of them are red states: West Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. Yes, that's your home state, Scott. Married women whose married names aren't on their birth docs would face extra hurdles. Just because you don't care, doesn't mean it isn't a real issue. It took 17 years for Real ID (with similar citizenship requirements in some states) to actually be implemented in the US. Do YOU think that's because Americans are "too dumb" to figure it out? Oh and BTW, according to the SAVE ACT, most Real IDs wouldn't count.
