Extremely random, but who do I know in Mississippi? Particularly in Central Mississippi? My mentee is at school at Mississippi Delta Community College and I have some questions. #mississippi #mississippidelta

There is a reason that the Voting Rights Act existed, and that reason has also been the defining feature of the decades-long effort to dismantle it: racism. - It's not particularly complicated. Racism is a tentpole of this country's history. It has been the foundation of much of the worst of what this country has done. It is so foundational that any effort to even reduce its impact is seen as an attack against the country itself. - Which is why you're now seeing the bot-resembling MAGA army shouting that, actually, it's the VRA itself that was racist, and that majority-minority districts created to rectify representation disparity are racist, and that spreading them out and diluting their power is better. It's all the same "win on merit" garbage they've been pushing, where they pretend that the deck isn't stacked so that "merit" = white. - And we can't pretend that this is solely a Republican push. There's this nutsack of a local elected Dem who has some of the worst takes on majority-minority districts that I've ever heard. So while it's largely the right that is making these huge moves, sometimes the call is coming from inside the house, too.

Ed catching strays. 😂

Every year, amidst the formal wear giveaway event that we do -- #cupromgiveaway -- I become an unwitting wedding dress supplier. Inevitably, amidst the hundreds of prom and homecoming and bridesmaid dresses we receive via donations, we also end up with a wedding dress or two. And then I get to figure out a way to give them away. Some of y'all might remember that we actually had one dress from the very first year that was used for a wedding, then returned, and used for another wedding! This year we had three wedding dresses in our space. One of them was even the wedding dress of one of our volunteers who has been a part of this event every single year. Two were grabbed during the event (including Erin's!). One remains. It's pictured here. Storing it for a whole year seems a waste. So, here it is. It's a 16. Knowing what I know now about formalwear, that means it probably fits someone who is normally a 14. (As if the sizing on women's clothing wasn't chaotic enough. 😂😭) Anyone happen to be that size and struggling to pay for their wedding?

These dorks really think they're doing something with this. 😂 #crusaders #lol

She warned us. And she was laughed at, demonized, and blamed.

Could it be?

Here for this.

This is how you do a #davematthewsband #chicagoriver joke. 😂😂 #dmb
