North Carolina Republicans just drew a map giving themselves 11 of 14 congressional seats in our 50/50 state. That’s 79% of the seats for one party.

That’s not representation — it’s a brazen attack on democracy and fair elections.

"You can't judge me based on the things I say," is peak Republican

The group chat included one message in which Douglass mocked the bathing habits of people from India, and another exchange where his wife wrote of “expecting the Jew to be honest.”

The first-term GOP senator said Wednesday that his message in the chat “was not a generalization and doesn’t represent my views or character.”

It feels fancy to have because it’s been hard to import in the past because of the mites that create it (: It’s like a soft cheddar, so when we’ve managed to pick some up on our occasional Wegman’s trips, we’ve also paired it with apple salads or in stuffed mushrooms.

Inspired by a salad we had once upon a time at Rolf & Daughters, roasted butternut with salsa macha and TJ’s new mimolette, and a shared NY strip from our local butcher with a thrown together mushroom sauce while the steak rested because we forgot we meant to do that 🍽️🍋

A small white plate on a woven, wine-themed placemat on a white table. On the plate are a pile of cubed squash with thin ribbons of cheese and slices of steak covered in a thick, dark mushroom sauce. In the background are a small garden salad on a clear bowl, a bottle of TJ’s grand reserve Chilean Cabernet, a bottle of salad dressing, a purple Nalgene, and a man taking a picture at a similar place setting.

Oh, I hate celery so much I would do extra side work for whomever would cut it for me when I was assigned that task while waitressing. But I could only choose one!

As long as I keep getting cast younger, you may pass. Luckily for you, I have no auditions coming up and next summer will be sharing a role with someone 16 years my junior (;

3 MAGA extremists have re-intro'd a bill that allows South Carolina to execute women who receive an abortion. If you haven't heard about S 323, it's because corporate media has completely ignored it.

Here's the overview, the sponsors, & how to fight back:

Here's what's in the bill, why it is so dangerous, and the meaningful steps you can take to fight back, support women's health, and help block this bill from becoming law
