Ten more #PostcardsToVoters going out to Broward County,FL for the #MailTheVoteFL.
Another example of why I volunteer with #PostcardsToVoters We sent postcards to get out the vote for Judge Jill Karofsky & she won the election defeating Judge Kelly who was a Scott Walker appointee That election has made a difference in WI THREAD 👇

@iammrvandy Oh Rob
@iammrvandy @ditzkoff So sorry for the loss of your dear friend. As a fan, I feel his loss, but I hope that for all dear to him the loss is lightened by the treasures he left behind. Your show is a huge one for me. We spent the weekend watching The Dick Van Dyke Show. My son laughed as hard as me.
My idol, Carl Reiner, wrote about the human comedy. He had a deeper understanding of the human condition, than I think even he was aware of. Kind, gentle, compassionate, empathetic and wise. His scripts were never just funny, they always had something to say about us.
I’m honored to have the opportunity to serve SD-26. A huge thanks to all the volunteers who made calls, wrote postcards, sent texts and pitched in $. This was a team effort and shows KY-ians want leaders who will work across party lines to tackle our biggest challenges. (1/2)
How can anyone still support a President who knows another country is paying for the scalps of US soldiers but doesn’t even voice his condemnation? Instead he seeks to reward said country! Outrageous! @cspanwj
Anything being done about our troops with bounties on their heads, or is the WH still wondering if the intelligence that came out months ago “conflicting”? If it’s not ineptitude, then it’s corruption. Or both? Either one, this administration needs to end.
First it was "Nobody told me!" Then, when that fell apart, it was, "They told me, but I didn't believe it!" #MAGA people, I'm begging you, wake up! He's a LIAR.
.@AmyMcGrathKY releases a statement on her victory. "We must unify our Democratic family to make that happen, including those who didn't vote for me in the primary, and I intend, immediately, to start the dialogue necessary to bring us all together in our common cause"
A reminder that #TamirRice was killed for having a toy gun, while #PatriciaMcCloskey pointed a gun at peaceful protesters with her hand ON the trigger & is still practicing law + sits on the Missouri Bar Association’s ethics panel. #BlackLivesMatter #Racist #America
Finally. Thank you.
FULL STOP: a pres that doesn't read his PDB is simply unfit for office & should not be allowed to even RUN for office. #GOPBetrayedAmerica
Some postcards for Broward County Florida Democratic voters to encourage them to enroll in Vote By Mail. #PostcardsToVoters #MailTheVoteFL
Just brutal. Perfectly so.

🚨BREAKING: @SenateGOP *forced the removal* of language from the annual intelligence bill that would have required presidential campaigns to report offers of foreign election help. THERE IS NO REASON TO REMOVE THIS.🤬 @thespybrief cnn.com/2020/06/30/pol…
@DrDenaGrayson @SenateGOP @thespybrief The Republican party is longer even trying to hide their contempt for democracy. They are an existential threat to the US.

1K Followers 2K Following Being “Mamaw” is best job I’ve ever had! Will work to leave a good and just world for kids and grandkids. 44 yrs married, retired civil servant. Proud Democrat!
@cmclymer I once pulled up to a gas pump and then left a few minutes later w/o getting gas because I couldn't figure out how to pop the gas hatch. I had to call my aunt (her car). It was in the glove compartment, something I'd never seen before. Felt like an idiot. Glad it wasn't filmed.
Meanwhile, a couple is filming her from their car not too far away and laughing the whole time. I'm not trying to shame anyone here or say you're a bad person or some other nonsense for sharing the video or laughing at it, but let's back up for a second and consider some things.
So, not to be a wet blanket, but there's a viral video going around of a woman who repeatedly parks her car beside a gas pump with her gas cap on the opposite side of the car because she's confused. She does it, like, three or four times. (thread)
Because if we can't be comfortable in our skin when out in public, that's a problem, and while a perfect world doesn't exist, it doesn't mean we shouldn't work toward a society that prioritizes consent. Food for thought. /thread
I know this will come across as scolding, and it's not intended to. We're all human, we all laugh at random things, we all make ridiculous mistakes or just leave our brain at home sometimes. But we are also all entitled to consent and a baseline of dignity and respect.
"Do I need to film this?" "Does this person know they're being filmed?" "Am I possibly causing harm?" "Why am I filming this?" Answering these questions is a particularly good place to start.
I don't know exactly where the line should be drawn on expectations of privacy in a world of smartphones and I'm certainly no expert on privacy, but I feel like being graceful and considerate of others is a good place to start.
I thought I looked great--and I still do, thank you very much--but it also made me feel really vulnerable, like someone with such little regard for privacy and consideration would have no problem, say, inflicting an act of violence or further harassing me.
Last year, I was at a trans rights rally and a transphobe took a pic of me in which I was wearing jeans. They circled my crotch with red and posted it everywhere online. It was really weird and creepy.
Because it's not just a video. It's the comfort we should all expect to be able to navigate the public square without feeling like our every movement is vulnerable to recording by strangers and put online. It's creepy and dangerous. It makes people feel unsafe.
But it's deeply concerning to me that we're increasingly seeing a common respect for basic consideration of privacy be eroded away because we're all carrying cell phones that are technologically capable of recording and editing short films.
I have no problem with assholes being filmed for doing asshole things to others and called out for it. By all means, have a ball. Record and post away.
And finally, something I didn't think about until MUCH later is that she might have a disability that leads to confusion over the gas pump. Again, I don't say that to shame anyone, but it is something to consider that may not be so obvious.
What's more is that her license plate is clearly visible in the video and although masked (she's the kind of person who wears a mask even while driving, so bonus points on that), she is more than likely recognizable to those who know her.
It's kinda disturbing to me that this woman--or anyone--could be filmed going about their daily lives, unaware that they're being filmed by strangers, never consenting to it being shared online. That by the time they get home, they find out they're going viral for an honest goof.
(Side note: why not get out and walk over to help this person after you see they're struggling?)
This woman wasn't bothering or hurting anyone. She was minding her own business. She happened to be super confused on how to park near the gas pump, something most of us have done once or twice, but it literally did not affect anyone else other than her.
