Introduction 🧵
I'm a tall Millennial cishet white woman in #Wisconsin. I'm married with 2 littles (Little Mouse and Littlest Mouse). I'm a pharmacist, doing formulary management & have worked in retail.

I'm a WI sports fan and love classic rock music (Queen ftw) and bar trivia.
Love this deep dive into #VaughnsValley, and it reminds me of some of the articles I read last season. #ThisIsMyCrew #ThanksCivale #Brewers

R+6 or 7 is a great result for Dems here regardless but with 93% of 2022 turnout this is terrifying for Rs

they cannot rely on "oh this is just special election turnout differential"

almost everyone showed up and a lot of them voted the other way
14% swing from 2024 when all is said and done? Pretty good considering just how high-profile the race became in the last week

Turnout is currently *93%* of 2022, and it's also a 14% swing from 2022 despite similar turnout levels

i've had a couple of whiskeys so either i'm going to have more and get into details or have more and avoid details but

the GOP and GOP-aligned groups continue to flail in local/state elections that they have openly invested in, deeply, and when they win by inches it's a huge sign of actual loss

Yesterday the Wisc. Elections Commission yet again dealt with a situation where a candidate only submitted 51 nomination signatures for a race that required 50 signatures. DO NOT DO THIS. No matter the # of signatures required, plan on submitting an additional 50%. 1/

Pretty much ANY statistic you see cited to frighten you about vaccines comes from the VAERS database. (Including the recent evidence-free missive from Vinay Prasad). Here's why VAERS can NEVER be a proper source for population-level vaccine risk estimates.

Related - SIL lets their kid play, so mine likes to play with cousins when together. I've been pushing back, but I'd love suggestions for alternate games for elementary school age kids to enjoy playing - ideally together.

Stardew Valley is fun, but no coop on Android yet.

Thanks!

It's very helpful to remember: we organized and we won a lot of good shit.

That scared entrenched power shitless, and this moment is that hierarchy's struggle to reassert itself.

If we beat it back and demand a rebuilding that is liberatory, we can win even better shit.
Like, very obviously, many things have improved! My kids get accommodations in school that would have been unthinkable in the 90s! Gay marriage is, right now, legal! If you spend all day thinking about how much worse things are you're basically talking yourself into being a reactionary

Holiday recommendation request - Mr. Mouse and I have decided to upgrade the littles from Duplos to "real Legos". Any favorites for starter play sets?

Probably going to get the light up play table (KidKraft) from Costco for storage that's compatible with "all major building bricks brands". Thanks!

Golden continues up be a favorite song for my littles.
Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:
