Get in, losers, we’re going to the Cambrian Explosion.
ZOMG LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE SHALE

Okay, so the Burgess Shale is a fossil bed in British Columbia that contains a whole bunch of fossils of weirdass creatures from the Cambrian era, over 500 million years ago. But the great thing about the shale is that it has fossilized SOFT PARTS!

Seeing reports of the northern lights down to southern New Mexico. Texas folks, go take a look. Sometimes your iPhone’s longer exposure if the best way to see it.

Hi.

I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold.

I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

Just booked a tailgate ticket for UNT at Rice 11/22. If you are in Houston the weekend before Thanksgiving and love good football, I’d get a ticket. UNT plays a fun style and has been the toast of college football all season. Cheap tickets, good football, can’t lose.

So weekend summed up: Pluribus great, Frankenstein great, Hawkeyes nice try, Texans WTF but it ended with a win. Senate Dems made a deal that will fall through. Eventful.

Now a few Morning Show eps, Derry and then rest for an MRI tomorrow.

The Democratic Party is historically unpopular with its own voters.

Caving to Trump and getting nothing in return will only bring these numbers down further.

It’s a historic failure—and an opportunity to push for changes to the electoral system.
Democratic Party hits lowest approval in over 30 years: Poll
The only policy areas where Democrats outperform Republicans in the new poll from the Wall Street Journal are health care and vaccine policy.

Oh sure you think Chuck Schumer is “caving” and “wants to ruin all the momentum” and “is horrible at politics” but what if I was to tell you that this old crazy man ran the idea by an imaginary married Irish American couple that exists only in his mind and they think it’s great politics

I will not only blame the Senate Democrats who are caving. I will blame them all. They needed to keep their ranks in order. If this happens, it's the most spineless political retreat imaginable and it will harm millions upon millions of Americans. Chickenshit, self-neutering nonsense. Cowards.

"Promised Vote"

Are Democrats really stupid enough to trust Republicans? Guess we'll find out

Like idk man, this is the most leverage the Dems have had all shutdown with the airports delaying/cancelling flights

Caving for a promise is kind of insane

Moderate Democrats saw that voters were energized and might expect something from them, so they needed to put a stop to that ASAP
