Wearing white today on behalf of HRC and women EVERYWHERE
(difficult since I'm too sloppy for a lot of white in my wardrobe)...Likewise feeling very emotional. Lots of exercise planned for today to keep me from freaking out!
But, for me, my thoughts are also filled with every damned incident of gender discrimination, harassment, cat-calling, ugly comments, wolf whistles, underestimation, interruption, and discounting of my views--based on my gender.... All those episodes are bubbling to the surface--and only ignite my admiration for the strength HRC has shown (and will HAVE to continue to manifest), on behalf of ALL OF US.
May we all earn the celebration so very due, AND continue to have her back--no matter who we supported in the primaries. Special hugs to all of HOF!

1. Girl Power
This is for all the victims who are survivors. Myself included. For standing strong against sexism and discrimination. For being judged on nothing but your looks. For being diminished and viewed as less than or weak. But we know our truth. We are strong. We are fighters. We take on adversity and kick ass. And we will continue to fight for equal rights for all.

I salute those who came before and fought to pave the way. Thank you for the bottom of my heart.

4. I'm wearing my Hillary "Deal me In" shirt, made in the USA.
and giving out playing cards. It's blue. Like you, I just can't wear white.
and thats it. It just ends...all this slapping on the back/celebrating a premature victory and then...NOTHING. no follow up posts.

But let's give her a consolation prize - she can make half of them with WHITE bread, which would also honor the slightly-over-half of the White women who voted for Trump!

Hmmm... wearing white, feeling fat and emotional.... there's only one thing missing.
"Sometimes I just don't feel fresh."

I strongly suspect that this DUmmie has never heard a wolf-whistle directed at her in her life.

I gather that you're probably stylish enough to know not to wear white after Labor Day anyway.

Funny, I did too. Not even a conscious effort, perhaps my subconscious.

Dog whistle!!! That could be construed as a sexist micro aggression.

They should have worn brown considering how bad they shit themselves that night.

So did I, but it was a conscious effort that day. Wore my 2d Armored Cavalry Regiment polo, with the regimental crest of the 2d ACR.
(That's another thing--if any staff members of POTUS-E Trump just happen to be reading this, bringing back the ACRs to L-series strength would be a nice nod to bringing the Army back from the wilderness brought on by the Dems. All of them, to include reactivating the 14th ACR. Bring back the 2d and 3d from bring infantry-based, and bring back the 11th from being a training unit banished to FT Irwin.)
