Pennsylvania Republicans are at it again, ignoring standard democratic protocols and claiming a majority that they failed to win at the ballot box in order to jam through a series of state constitutional amendments in a matter of weeks.

Accepting election results and ensuring a peaceful transfer of power is a cornerstone of a healthy democracy. Republicans in the state House should take heed of their loss, step aside and allow the Democrats to take their rightfully won majority and stop trying to force through the very policies that lost them the election in the first place. That’s how a functioning democracy is supposed to work. #Pennsylvania

My wife decided to do a double-play-for-the-holiday special edition of Doing Olivia’s Makeup (still workshopping the name, but can’t help feeling the acronym may be appropriate at least), & in honor of a nice sunny day after the recent storms went with a rainbow theme #transjoy

I hope your day was Merry and bright and you found reasons to love yourself just as you are. You are beautiful as you are. ❀️

I want to go back in time to a year before all of my friends were pregnant and constantly talking about being pregnant.

Oh, to be 12 again.

Nobody gives an eighth of a fuck that Pence is running for President. He's a spineless non-entity, like a beached jellyfish you'd recoil from at the beach, going "Aughhh!" Though I'm all in favor of piling Republican money onto useless bonfires. #politics

GOP: β€œWe’re not White Christian Nationalists!”

You: Are you white?
GOP: Yes

You: Are you Christian?
GOP: Yes

You: Do you support β€˜America First’ nationalism?
GOP: Yes

GOP: β€œBut we’re not White Christian Nationalists!”

@godpod it was my grandmother's birthday before that nonsense, so this year I'm planning as are the rest of my family in thinking about grandma white!

The Hungarian prime minister has cozy relations with Moscow, repeatedly stalls European Union sanctions, and insists that Kyiv should be forced to negotiate a peace deal. wapo.st/3jkJsFc

I don’t know whether Mike Pence is running for president, but I do know we’ve already had six years with Pence as a national figure and at best, they were underwhelming.

We are literally at six Pence, none the richer.
