Lady lawyers strategizing after Hobby Lobby

Today's longread: The Road Ahead: Gender Equality after Hobby Lobby (PDF) from The Alliance: State Advocates for Women's Rights & Gender Equality.
We offer this Report and state strategies agenda as a resource for allies in the movements for reproductive rights, health and justice, for LGBTQ equality, and for other progressive change across the country. We invite allies throughout the progressive community to join us in adapting and evolving these and other state strategies as we continue forging a powerful joint effort to combat gender discrimination in all its forms, and to protect women’s and LGBTQ rights, health and dignity -- now and into the future.
Local participant in the Alliance is the Women's Law Project.

Friday jukebox: Trask + Hubley

Good lord, I could watch Emily Hubley animation all day long:



And Osiris and the gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big storm
To blow a hurricane,
To scatter us away,
In a flood of wind and rain,
And a sea of tidal waves,
To wash us all away,
And if we don't behave
They'll cut us down again

Putting this here because in November, 2016, we won't believe that a candidate for the Presidency actually said this and then thought it was a wise move to memorialize it the next day on social media.

One of the better reply Tweets notes that he's literally
standing on a pile of American corpses.

The other thing we won't believe Jeb Bush said was that he thought Margaret Thatcher should be on the American ten-dollar bill.
