Morning Coffee (10/27/16)
"Clinton is making her closing argument. Trump is making infomercials."
This is maybe big: DNC Launches Broad Legal Attack On RNC Over Trump's 'Voter Fraud' Crusade
Related: Make America violent again: Trump’s rhetoric could cause Election Day mayhem — and worse
He's SO GREAT, you guys: Tim Kaine's feminism
Trump's comments on women in the military are quite, um, something. Among other things, this shows his complete lack of respect for the competency and professionalism of ALL our troops of any gender, and as the sister of a soldier, I have to say that's pretty offensive.
What Drives Donald Trump? Fear of Losing Status, Tapes Show
In case you were wondering: Donald Trump Has No Idea What Obamacare Does
Chris Christie Is Over (When I went to a Chris Christie rally the person sitting literally next to me raised her hand and asked how Christie would protect her from THE LIBERALS and not whispering "We're all around you!" was the hardest thing I've ever done.)
Here's the Carnegie Medals shortlist! I want to read all of them.
I don't really CARE, do whatever you want, but why did Michael Phelps keep his marriage a secret when he wasn't trying to keep his wife or child out of the spotlight or anything? If they wanted to keep the relationship quiet in general, I would get it, but why have his wife constantly on TV as his "fiancee"? Just... why bother? Why did his agent perform the ceremony? It's just so ODD.

Morning Coffee (8/11/16)
We got some Star Trek: Discovery news! Most excitingly: The lead will be female.
My friend Chris is in a horror movie called Found Footage 3D and the trailer is out. (If you like horror movies I very much think you should watch this one; I am a scaredycat who may not be able to handle it.)
Drop Everything: There Are 2 New Girl Scout Cookies And They’re Inspired By S’mores (They sound good but why do they have the same name??)
The Men in Blazers Premier League preview podcast is out! (People keep being surprised that I watch Premier League. What can I say? I appreciate a sport that airs on weekend mornings.)
Today in stories calibrated to my interests: When Tim Kaine met the Queen of England
This guy. Michael Phelps Tied A 2,168-Year-Old Olympic Record
Trump’s Wink Wink to ‘Second Amendment People’
This story about Hillary Clinton and money is fascinating on a number of levels, not least because of how baffling everyone (then and now) seems to find the idea of a woman whose husband's income is uncertain deciding to act based upon what would allow her to take care of herself and her child.
CNN's Brian Stelter: Fox News Sent A Staffer To Date Me And Spy On Me Ten Years Ago
Heh: What Would Happen if Aziz Ansari Narrated a BBC Nature Program?

Morning Coffee (8/6/16)
President Obama wrote an essay on feminism and it is great and I love him.
This is big and worth a read: I Ran the C.I.A. Now I’m Endorsing Hillary Clinton.
This profile of Anne Holton made me like her a lot, and like Tim Kaine even more than I did.
Is Georgia Becoming A Battleground State?
Trump's economic team has no women or people of color but five white guys named Steve. (Also very few... economists?)
Would Donald Trump Really Consider Dropping Out? (No.)
How Clinton quelled an insurgency (By compromising and doing the work and not stooping to the level of others' immaturity, which are QUALITIES I WANT IN A PRESIDENT, for what it's worth.)
Twitter “progressives” bombard Jen Kirkman with death threats after missing the point of a joke
Aaah, exciting Tintagel discoveries!!
NOPE: Meet the Allens, the “Off-Grid” Family That Wants Your Support to Survive

Morning Coffee (7/23/16)
In case you missed the news last night: Clinton chose Tim Kaine as her running mate, which I think makes a lot of sense.
What Ezra Klein is saying here is important: Donald Trump’s nomination is the first time American politics has left me truly afraid
As is this: Donald Trump’s NATO comments are the scariest thing he’s said
Republicans Have Made a World-Historical Mistake
How 'Lock Her Up!' Became a Mainstream GOP Rallying Cry
The Ugly Truth About the RNC: Donald Trump Is Not an Outlier
Welp: Former KKK Grand Wizard on Trump's RNC Speech: "Couldn't Have Said It Better"
And: Illinois Republicans remove Trump delegate with 'whitepride' social media handle
Did the Trump campaign violate federal law by using a Trump Organization speechwriter?
Alyssa Rosenberg's review of Star Trek Beyond makes me even more excited to see it.
