Good tip. I should be starting Spain in Our Hearts this week if you still haven't read that by the time I finish (I read three or four books at a time usually, so it might be a couple weeks)

I didn't watch the Grammys. Did they really have Hillary read something from the Fire and Fury or has reality not actually gone that far? Because this is 2018 now so I'm perfectly willing the believe either option.

the reviewer is a fantastic writer. can also recommend his Who Works for the Workers? on labor strategy in the neoliberal era, and The New Working Class in Dissent Magazine on the demographic and sectoral composition of today's working class and how that relates to labor organizing in the workplace and political sphere.

Yeah, this.

Everyone assumed that because Trump was clearly incapable of running a traditional campaign that he was incapable of campaigning at all. It turns out he was running a secular big tent revival instead.

bad-dem casey's bad-dem dad was the one responsible for signing into law state-based regulations on abortion in the first place so it's not surprising that the bad-dem apple doesn't fall far from the bad-dem tree.

quote:

In a bitter, 5-to-4 decision, the Court again reaffirmed Roe, but it upheld most of the Pennsylvania provisions. For the first time, the justices imposed a new standard to determine the validity of laws restricting abortions. The new standard asks whether a state abortion regulation has the purpose or effect of imposing an "undue burden," which is defined as a "substantial obstacle in the path of a woman seeking an abortion before the fetus attains viability." Under this standard, the only provision to fail the undue-burden test was the husband notification requirement. In a rare step, the opinion for the Court was crafted and authored by three justices: O'Connor, Kennedy, and Souter.

so lanyards are claiming they're not gonna watch sotu tomorrow nite so as to give drumpf some lowest-ever ratings, which I guess means the sotu will break all viewing records to date, bc you know the lanyards are gonna hate-watch it in spite of themselves, and also to laud the transgender soldiers + noble dreamers who will fill up the dems' guest seats.
