I am a poor. I used to be poorer. I donate my piddly $10 every month because you Wonkettes have helped me through the hard times with my disability, and then the harder times once I was diagnosed with the cancer. I can't/haven't even talk(ed) about it yet because I'm in such a bad place, but you folks and your intelligent discourse and your wonderful sense of humor have helped to get me through this hard, dark period. I love you all, but I'm kinda ashamed that Rebecca has to do the money beg when it's so clear that this mommy blog makes such a difference to so many.
I have to stop, or I'll get all whiny. But thank you all who help make this time manageable for people like me... people you don't even know.
57?! That's WAY in my rearview mirror. I worked in higher education for twenty years and my social security has been unaffected. I retired with a disability at 63, which affected it a little, but not that much.
I hope you're sitting down for this totally unexpected news: SCOTUS just overturned a lower court order mandating that Alabama comply with the Voting Rights Act by redrawing a Congressional map that diluted Black voting power.
Nope, that didn't change it. I might just have to do two donations to get to the amount I wanted.
This is why I won't vote for Biden.
It should be changed. I spent 20 years military. I get a generous pension, then at 62 I started drawing social security. One doesn't effect the other.
I signed up for the 55/25 program when they offered it to NYC teachers, wisest investment I've ever made, I'll have my 25 at age 57.
Hon if you find a place in the world without sexist assholes, please tell me so I can go there.
Wonkette kept me sane the past four years.
I admit to being tempted to quit when they include Bernie-loving-sexist-bully-asshole Loomis. But that would be cutting off my nose to spite my face.

Hugs for you friend.
Why in G_d's name would anyone unsubscribe from Wonkette? Don't make no kinda sense, no how.

He is rump without the orange skin
I'm 100% disabled vet, PTSD/mst. I'm pretty much a recluse. Tapping out snar on my phone is my only intellectual outlet.You aren't the only one.
The best things about Wonkette, #4: Rebecca is good people who (just like you) hate asking for money. Save Rebecca from the workhouse!
Support constructive irresponsible political speech!
I highly recommend blocking them and moving on. Every time I see "This user is blocked," an angel gets his wings...or something.

It's the standard GQP method. Right wing Spanish-language media was so gross in the days after Biden picked Harris as the VP candidate.
