Adding music to my mp3 player, THIS needs to be the Democratic theme song
And this was a response to the Chicks expressing their opinions during the Bush the Dumber years. I truly thought we had hit rock bottom then; I did not think at the time it could get worse and was I wrong. The rethuglicans aren't even close to hitting rock bottom yet. I hope to hell this country doesn't give them a chance to do it.
Ok... This old gay man has an idea if Roe vs. Wade is trashed...
How about we make the sperm donors responsible for 50% of the cost of the baby?
Hey, it takes two to tango, and there was only one (alleged) virgin birth, and this one isn't likely the second. Put on your big boy pants and take responsibility for your impressively potent sperm, son.
So many times I heard when I was a teenager, some guy knocks his girlfriend up and his first reaction is "How do I know it's mine?" In more than a few cases, because I knew this was true, my response was "BECAUSE SHE LOVES YOU and she isn't sleeping with anyone else".
I know it isn't perfect. There are cases of rape, women being date raped, drugged... The father can't always be identified.
BUT, there are many times where the father can be identified. He needs to suck it up and do his duty. IT SHOULD NOT ONLY BE THE WOMAN'S RESPONSIBILITY.
Any other CPAP users? Looking to get a CPAP pillow
I've been using a CPAP since 2007. I recently got a new machine. It has Bluetooth on it and gives you a daily report on how you slept on it's app.
I'm getting a pretty good score, but the problem is the mask. I wear a full face mask (covers my mouth) and tend to move around a lot at night. I also sleep on my back or my side. I'm getting a lot of mask leaks during the night and want to try to minimize them.
From researching, it seems like a CPAP pillow would help, one with cut outs to accommodate the hose and the mask. Of course, there are lots of different ones in a range of prices.
Does anyone have one they can recommend?
Randy Rainbow is a national treasure
He duets with Patti Lupone, another national treasure. Love this one!
Postal Service: Michigan deadlines for mail-in voting might disqualify some ballots
Source: Detroit News
The U.S. Postal Service has warned Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson that mail delivery timelines pose "significant risk" to ballots sent too close to Election Day and that could lead to their disqualification.
USPS General Counsel Thomas J. Marshall wrote to Benson that Michigan election laws and certain deadlines for requesting and casting mail-in ballots are incongruous and incompatible with the Postal Service's delivery standards.
"This mismatch creates a risk that ballots requested near the deadline under state law will not be returned by mail in time to be counted under your laws as we understand them," Marshall wrote in a letter a week before a primary election that saw record absentee participation in Michigan.
He added the Postal Service "cannot adjust its delivery standards to accommodate state election law."

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was on Ru Paul's Drag Race this week!
I tape the show and watched it last night. I was surprised and thrilled to see AOC as a guest judge. I think she is absolutely beautiful, inside and out. The queens were quite impressed. and one got emotional, saying how much AOC and the other congresswoman of color have been an inspiration.
It's early yet, but my nominee for Tweet of the Day
An absolutely spot on description of that slug, Barr...

Trump refuses to invite Speaker Pelosi to coronavirus bill signing after she delivers the votes for
On Friday, CNN reported that President Donald Trump is not inviting any Democrats to the signing ceremony for the $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus package even though House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and the rank and file Democrats in Congress played a huge role in its negotiation and passage.
On the signing ceremony, it appears no Democrats have been invited to President Trumps signing ceremony, despite the fact that every now and then he says that the country needs to come together, how great it is that the bill passed the Senate 96-0, said anchor Jake Tapper to reporter Kaitlan Collins. Is there a strategy behind this? Is he trying to make it seem as though only Republicans are bringing this well-needed aid to the American people? Or is this just petulance and pettiness?
