Modern Losers’ Club Headcanons
Tumblr media
Plot: Individual headcanons of the modern Loser’ about different things they’d do and love (mostly during high school)
Warnings: slight Reddie, shit ton of Stenburough, drug use + mentions of sex + swearing
——————————————————————————
Bill Denbrough:
~ He’s the artist, everyone knew that.
~Typical art kid who won all the awards and participated in every art class his school offered.
~ He just didn’t take choir or band because we know this boy has no musical abilities at all.
~ Bill would save up all his allowance and holiday money so that he could buy that really good drawing app that he could use on his IPad.
~ After he got it, there was no way to get him to look up at you for more than ten seconds. He would fall in love with digital art.
~ Remember he took all of the art classes? Well, creative writing and poetry we’re considered arts at Derry High School, so that’s where he fell in love with writing.
~ Suprisingly, he would be really into heavy metal. Bands like Bring Me the Horizon and Of Mice and Men would blare in his headphones while he drew in his room late at night.
~ Bill would also really love watching indie movies on Netflix and other platforms. He’s lowkey a movie buff, but he doesn’t tell people too much.
~ His favorite movie from the past decade would probably be Moonrise Kingdom (good movie!!) or The Skeleton Twins (also good movie!!)
~ Bill’s favorite book would 10000% be Turtles All The Way Down by John Green because of the main character and her battle with anxiety.
——————————————————————————
Mike Hanlon:
~ He runs a cooking YouTube channel, you can’t fight me on this one.
~ Mike would definitely have one of those motorized scooters, idk seems like a Mike thing
~ He’s in love with video games but only the ones that are based on a lot of skill. He doesn’t like first person shooters, nor does he like any games with violence at all. Tbh, Papa’s Pizzeria is right up his alley.
~ Mike would be a gym try hard, most definitely. But in every other class he’d just sit on his phone.
~ But he’s so smart that he’d pass all the tests anyway.
~ He’d work a lot just so he could afford the newest phone because he thinks it gives people less of a reason to pick on him and bully him. (News flash: it doesn’t)
~ Whenever Mike isn’t working, he volunteers at the animal shelter in Derry. He runs the Instagram account :)
~ Probably one of the guys who posts shirtless pics on Instagram because he likes the attention the girls give him in the comments.
~ Will answer any of Bill’s texts at 3am when he wants feedback on a new piece of art.
~ A secret theatre kid, no doubt. Not really a musical kid, but he loves acting and just being on stage with everyone’s attention on him.
——————————————————————————
Richie Tozier:
~ Speaking of theatre kids, Richie is the BIGGEST fucking one. He has been in every musical and play that his school has done since 6th grade, and he was one of the best kids they had.
~ He wears Pierce the Veil and Sleeping with Sirens shirts, but Richie mostly listens to softer bands like Arctic Monkeys and The Neighbourhood.
~ He has a bi pride pin on his backpack. Kids will sometimes pull it off and throw it around, but he just pulls another one out of a ziploc bag full of them in the tiny front pouch of his bag and sticks it on there.
~ Richie unapologetically owns a Juul and will sometimes let Bev borrow it as long as she pays him “25 cents a hit”, which she never does.
~ Posts music on SoundCloud. He’s not much of a singer outside of the musicals because he’s mostly shy with his talent; however, he does a lot of instrumentals.
~ Richie shops are thrift stores most of the time. He’ll take Eddie with him and though Eddie won’t touch anything until it’s been washed twice, Richie will buy him anything he likes.
~ He LOVES Harry Potter. He found the first book when he was younger and he just fell in love with the story. He owns all the first editions and all of the movies.
~ Goes to small venues to see bands that no one knows. Richie will go to so many concerts because he likes the escape it brings for him. He’s in his element when he goes to concerts.
~ Despite what many people think, he isn’t a whore :0 He just flirts a lot and he actually didn’t lose his virginity till he was 17 at a party. He regrets it, though, cause he was drunk off his ass.
~ He was also in the color guard for his high school’s marching band. A lot of the girls from the theatre stuff begged him to be apart of it because he could dance really well, and he ended up being in it for both the indoor and outdoor seasons all throughout high school.
——————————————————————————
Eddie Kaspbrak:
~ BOOKWORM, BOOKWORM, B O O K W O R M!!! This boy would spend every second he could just browsing the books that his school library had.
~ After he yelled at his mom for his pills, he started to kind of overcome his germaphobe tendencies, but he still was very iffy about touching things in places he’d never been.
~ For example, Richie took him to the park one time and he had never been there before, so the whole time he was holding his noses and steering clear of the snot nosed little kids.
~ Him and Richie definitely dated at some point or another. Whether to get a feel for guys or just for each other, but it did happen. Beverly was the only one who ever knew.
~ Eddie fell in love with engineering at school. He would always call one of the Losers at an ungodly hour in the morning and rant about how all of the buildings in town were built and with what materials. Honestly, Ben was the only one who shared this interest with him.
~ Eddie was the first to get his own car so all of the Losers would pile into his Jeep. Richie always tried to convince him to take off the doors, but Eddie thought that that was the biggest goddamn safety hazard he’d ever heard.
~ As they all got older, obviously him and Richie stayed close, but he also got surprisingly close with Ben and Ben would gush about Beverly to him after Eddie would excitedly explain how a car’s engine works or something like that.
~ Eddie was the one to convince Beverly to go after Ben and stop pining over Bill.
~ Eddie went to concerts with Richie all the time, and even if the sweaty roadies grossed him out, he fell in love with the bass killing his eardrums and the way the mic static could transform someone’s voice.
~ He also joined his school’s marching band (mainly cause Richie begged him) and was fucking AMAZING at playing snare drums.
——————————————————————————
Stanley Uris:
~ He was the last one to enter high school, everyone a year ahead of him, but he was ironically the most popular among the lower class men.
~ Stan was a very private person, but his willingness to do other’s homework for $5 a page made him infamous.
~ Because of all this money he’d been making, he’d buy the Losers presents all the time. He would treat them to their favorite snacks whenever they went to Keene’s or to a new shirt whenever they went to the mall over in Bangor. And he never went over budget because he’s a goddamn accountant by nature.
~ He had a massive crush on Bill and asked him to homecoming his freshman year. Yeah, they were bullied, but Stan couldn’t have been more happier.
~ Bill convinced him to tryout for the baseball team. He tried out for pitcher and got it immediately. He was also one of the sports kids who would post on his Snapchat whenever they had a game.
~ Him and Bill ended up dating up until junior year, when Bill admitted that he wanted to date at least one girl before college and Stan wasn’t mad because he honestly wasn’t feeling it anymore. Afterwards, they both started dating cheerleaders.
~ Stan was in Calculus his sophomore year of high school, which was the class that all of the AP seniors took. Many people called him a genius, he just thanked the internet.
~ Stan fell in love with indie bands like R.O.A.R and Florence + The Machines. Richie did, however, convince him to go to concerts with him and Eds. He might’ve not enjoyed the music, but he still loved being with his best friends since diapers.
~ He didn’t like movies too much but would watch them with Bill. He enjoyed TV shows a lot more. He’s definitely a true crime baby.
~ Stan also fell in love with photography because he was forced to take the class. He begged his parents to buy him a camera for his birthday, and his many cork boards were filled with pictures of his friends and birds.
——————————————————————————
Ben Hanscom:
~ Was a track start in high school. He ran off all of his fat and just fell in love with the high of running (tbh this is my favorite part about Ben’s character. like such a determined boy 🥺)
~ Ben enjoyed sitting at the library with Eddie and just watching him peruse books, usually pointing a few that he had read and liked. He also just loved the fact that him and Eddie were able to get so close as they got older.
~ Ben was in all the engineering courses his school offered. He was just so happy that he could take classes that pertained to the career path he wanted to go down.
~ He was able to finally get Beverly their senior year. He had been in love with her for the longest time, and she asked him to homecoming.
~ Ben also considered trying out for the football team, but it conflicted with the winter track season so he wasn’t able to; however, him, Mike, and Bill would always play their own small games in the field by Mike’s house.
~ While Stan helped everything with their math homework, Ben helped everyone with their history homework. He was a big history nerd, and everyone knew he paid attention the most.
~ He lost a bet one time and Richie was able to give him a stick and poke tattoo anywhere of his choosing. So now on the inside of his left ring finger he has R.T. written messily.
~ Ben loves pop music. He had always liked it, and some of his favorite artists were Katy Perry and Sia.
~ He rode his bike to school everyday. He was a very big proponent for the environment and hated the idea of driving, so he’d pass up the rides from Eddie or Richie and just bike with his headphones in.
~ Ben was apart of the school’s Green Team and protested climate change and the use of fossil fuels. When he had free time, he’d study ways that he could benefit the environment when he became an architect.
——————————————————————————
Beverly Marsh:
~ She was an English wiz. It was her favorite subject, and she fell in love with analyzing poetry and other forms of literary work.
~ Beverly started to let her hair grow out again and she was relieved to see that it started to grow out straight. She hated her curly hair.
~ She bleached her hair a few times throughout high school; she hated the red because it reminded her too much of her mother.
~ Her and Richie’s friendship fell off big time, but she got super close with Bill, Ben, and Mike. Her crush in Bill didn’t deplete for a while, even after him and Stan started dating. She still had hope.
~ Eddie told her about Ben and it really changed her whole perspective on everything. But that wasn’t until junior year.
~ Though she didn’t have too good of a singing voice, she loved being in choir. The angelic reverberations throughout the auditorium whenever they performed always gave her chills and she wanted so desperately to be a part of it.
~ Beverly wrote a lot of poetry. She wrote some to her friends, to her dead mom, to her asshole dad. Just to whoever she was focused on in that moment.
~ She helped Mike after school at the animal shelter and actually ended up adopting a kitten for herself.
~ Luckily, her dad didn’t mind the cat too much as long as Bev took care of it and didn’t bother him for a single thing.
~ Beverly didn’t get her license until she was well into her twenties, but she loved hanging her arm out of the passenger’s side window of Richie’s car and listen to the bands that he’d blast with closed eyes.

Photo
Tumblr media
So this is really exciting! I’ve written a Reddie fic that I’ll post in its entirety on ao3 once I hit 2k, but in the meantime here’s a sneak peek!
Title: The Power of Sexting Word Count: ~4,000 Rating: E
Sneak Peek beneath the cut:
It had started as a joke.
A kind of gay chicken, is how Richie had described it. He and Eddie had found it hilarious the first time, when Richie had sent the first picture and got a response he wasn’t expecting: what the fuck?
It was toward the end of their senior year of high school, and Eddie’s mother had only just deemed him mature enough to own a smart phone. With his for-emergencies-only flip phone discarded and a shiny iPhone in hand, Eddie had taken to constant iMessaging with his friends. It was rare that he wasn’t messaging with at least one of them.
Which is how it was so easy for Richie to accidentally send a photo to Eddie instead of his Tinder match. The photo was in his bathroom mirror, tight black jeans slung low on his hips and a ridiculous pout on his face. His shirt could be seen on the counter, and he was clearly flexing his almost non-existent biceps. He had taken six before the perfect one was chosen, and he attached it and sent it to a girl named Candace.
Almost immediately, he got a message from Eddie. Eyes widening, he realized he had sent the picture to Eddie, with whom he had just been having a conversation about DC versus Marvel.
E.K.: what the fuck?
R.T.: fuck
R.T.: that was meant to go to someone else lol
E.K.: do you really do that stupid duck face when you send pictures???
R.T.: excuse u??? stupid DUJck face??? that is sexy picture Gold. like u don’t make faces when u send pics
E.K.: I don’t even send pics but I know mine would be better than that!
R.T.: pls, u could never
Richie sent the picture to Candace as he awaited Eddie’s reply. When it came, he almost dropped his phone. Eddie stood in his bedroom in front of the mirror that hung on the back of his door. He was wearing sweat pants, his usual on the weekends, but he had a thumb hooked in the waistband so that the hem of his underwear could be seen. He wasn’t looking at the mirror, his eyes averted toward his phone and a small, coy smile on his face.
A few moments later, his phone buzzed in his hand, a small notification dropping from the top. Candace had sent an image. He found himself suddenly uninterested.
R.T.: not bad for a beginner
E.K.: NOT BAD? that is so much better than yours
R.T.: shoulda taken ur undies off eds, woulda been a lot better
E.K.: oh shut the fuck up

Guilty Pleasure #13
Tumblr media
MOON 44
Dir. ROLAND EMMERICH; Wri. P.J. MITCHELL, DEAN HEYDE, OLIVER EBERLE & ROLAND EMMERICH; Music. JOEL GOLDSMITH; Starring. MICHAEL PARÉ, LISA EICHHORN, DEAN DEVLIN, BRIAN THOMPSON, LEON RIPPY, STEPHEN GEOFFREYS, MALCOLM McDOWELL, ROSCOE LEE BROWNE; R.T. 99 mins; 1990, Germany
WHAT IT��S ABOUT: In a dark future where Earth’s natural resources are exhausted, mankind has gone out into the stars in search of mining opportunities, leading to bitter territorial wars between multinational corporations seeking economic superiority.  Moon 44 is a mineral-rich lump of rock controlled by Galactic Mining corporation, and the latest target of industrial espionage from their deadly rivals Pyrite Defence Company, leading GM to send professional undercover agent Felix Stone (Paré) to their outpost amongst a consignment of convict defence-system pilots to find and plug their “leak”.
WHY IT’S GUILTY: There’s a lot wrong with this film, not least the fact that it’s now become so painfully, almost embarrassingly dated; it’s also a seriously clunky beast, tonally schizophrenic, shockingly derivative and somewhat lacking in consistent character motivation.  There’s also a rather unpleasant rape/revenge subplot that leaves an unpleasant taste in the mouth – altogether, then, it’s no great surprise that it vanished largely without a trace on release and has now slipped into general cinematic obscurity …
WHY IT’S A PLEASURE: … but in my opinion this isn’t really a fair assessment.  There’s a certain down-and-dirty charm to this film, and strong curiosity value in the fact that it marks the initial meeting point of Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin, who became the director/writer/producer double act that brought us iconic sci-fi fixtures such as Universal Soldier, Stargate and Independence Day.  It’s a rough piece of work, but you can see glimmers of Emmerich’s punchy, glossy, hyperbolic style throughout, and he already showed a certain amount of skill in the action arena with the combat helicopter-based set-pieces (yeah, that never really made a lot of sense to me either, but I can’t deny finding some lowbrow enjoyment in the finished sequences).  The majority of the characters seem to be drawn in broad strokes or downright clichés, but they serve their functions well enough to support what passes for a plot, and some of them are likeable enough for us to care what happens to them – a large amount of the credit must of course go to what is a surprisingly solid cast for such pulpy fare.  Michael Paré was something of a B-movie star at the time, and this fits in well with more prominent landmark leads in the likes of The Philadelphia Experiment and Streets of Fire, once again playing the kind of winningly vulnerable, self-deprecating tough guy that likely would have made him a massive star if he’d been born into today’s generation of knowing, post-modern screen heroes; there’s also memorable support from Emmerich-regular Leon Rippy, Fright Night’s wise-cracking nerd Stephen Geoffreys and an unusually sympathetic turn from B-picture thug-for-hire Brian Thompson, while Devlin himself makes a particularly lasting impression as tech-wizard whistleblower Tyler, marking his bow-out as a jobbing actor before he made his far-more-successful transition into powerhouse writer-producer.  The production values are low but there’s scuzzy impact to the post-Alien industrial future design sensibility, while the underlying themes of the main plot have become intriguingly prescient in these current days of impending economic and ecological collapse in the face of overpopulation and dwindling resources, lending the film a kind of low-rent social relevance.  There’s plenty to count against it, but enough value to make this a comfortable guilty pleasure.  Give it a chance and it might surprise you.

Twitter Ads
Tumblr media
Advertising on Twitter, simply put , is promoting your company's advertising content on Twitter- hence Twitter ads .

Twitter ads work similarly  to advertising on Google Ad Words. Like establishing Pay/Cost Per Click(P-P-C/C-P-C respectively) a Cost Per Engagement C-P-E formula is implemented. This simply means that you only pay when users interact with an Ad , in other words when a user clicks on it ,expands it, RT's it, favourites it or responds to it.

Optimizing Your Brand
Back linking your website using Twitter paid promotions , you can achieve desired  visibility. With every link associated to a tweet you are optimizing your website. Though it may not receive the same number of clicks that you might get otherwise, this definitely improves the off page S-E-O for your website.

Cost-Effectiveness:
For cash-strapped small-business owners, using Twitter can be a cost-effective way to reach customers and prospects around the world. There is no charge to open and operate a Twitter account, so your only associated expenses are your computer and Internet connection, which you likely already have. You can send and receive tweets via mobile devices such as cell phones at no cost other than those required by your service provider, such as the cost for text messages. Twitter offers additional marketing tools at no or low cost.
Target Marketing:
With Twitter, you can locate people who have similar interests, which can help you target potential customers. For instance, if your business is selling model trains, you can easily find other model-train enthusiasts and "follow" them, which is the process of enlisting to receive tweets sent by others. Through networking, you can build your own following and develop long-term relationships that can lead to sales. The process of "retweeting," where your followers send your tweets on to other interested parties, can also help build your prospect base
Immediacy:
Twitter allows you to get your message out at any time of day or night without delays. If you come across an important bit of information that can be of immediate benefit to your followers, you can send a quick tweet and gain a competitive advantage. For example, if a sudden change in market conditions makes owning a product you sell of great benefit to your followers, you can be the first to communicate the change and make sales as a result.

Hourglass History
Tumblr media
Time gives his hour-glass Its due reversal. Their hour is gone. MATTHEW ARNOLD, "Consolation" Hourglass History Hourglass - measurement device The Hourglass, sand glass, sand timer or sand clock An hourglass (or sandglass, sand timer, or sand clock) is a device used to measure the intervals of time It comprises two glass bulbs connected vertically by a narrow neck that allows a regulated trickle of material (historically sand) from the upper bulb to the lower one. Factors affecting the time interval measured include sand quantity, sand coarseness, bulb size, and neck width. Hourglasses may be reused indefinitely by inverting the bulbs once the upper bulb is empty. Hourglass fact: advantages of hourglass, who invented the hourglass, hourglass symbolism, hourglass timer, hourglass quotes, hourglass sand timer, hourglass precision, science of an hourglass Before it became the symbol of a program stalling on your PC, the hourglass spent centuries as the representation of mortality and an emblem of the sciences. Much more than a symbol, of course, it also kept track of time in the pre-Swatch Era. See Time symbolism, Hourglass symbolism.

The origin of the hourglass is unclear
Tumblr media
Hourglass History Its predecessor the clepsydra, or water clock, is known to have existed in Babylon and Egypt as early as the 16th century BCE. According to the Journal of the British Archaeological Association the so-called clepsammia were in use before the time of St. Jerome (335 CE), and the first potential representation of an hourglass is in a sarcophagus dated c. 350 CE, representing the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, discovered in Rome in the 18th century, and studied by Winckelmann in the 19th century, who remarked the hourglass held by Morpheus in his hands. However, it is disputed whether object in question is a clepsammia or a similarly-shaped clepsydra; no other hourglass clearly appears in the historical record for another thousand years. Wiki

Tumblr media
Hourglass 264, Father Time, post card The hourglass first appeared in Europe in the eighth century, and may have been made by Luitprand, a monk at the cathedral in Chartres, France. By the early fourteenth century, the sand glass was used commonly in Italy. It appears to have been widely used throughout Western Europe from that time through 1500. The hourglass or sand clock follows exactly the same principle as the clepsydra. Two globes (also called phials or ampules) of glass are connected by a narrow throat so that sand (with relatively uniform grain size) flows from the upper globe to the lower. Hourglasses were made in different sizes based on pre-tested measurements of sand flow in different sizes of globes. A housing or frame that enclosed the globes could be fitted to the two globes to form a top and bottom for the hourglass and was used to invert the hourglass and start the flow of sand again. Some hourglasses or sets of hourglasses were set in a pivoted mount so they could be turned easily.

Hourglass 259, post card See also Father Time and Mother of Time Design and conceptualization are usually the most complicated part of hourglass making. The hourglass maker must be craftsman, artist, and public relations expert in advising clients of the practicalities in hourglass design and construction. Businesses are commissioning hourglasses as gifts related to the year 2000, but they also want to reflect the character of their business or incorporate materials associated with their products. After the design is finalized, actual construction of the hourglass is relatively straightforward.

Hourglass 250-255, post cards, Hallmark Sand-clock designs can also vary considerably in size. The smallest known hourglasses are the size of a cufflink, and the largest are up to 3 ft (1 m) tall. The glasses can have various shapes from round to oblong and can be engraved. Multiple (more than two) glass gloves can be linked together, and several hourglasses can be mounted in the same frame and turned on a turnstile.

(Juvenile) The Hourglass, Hourglass History Here are the other factors that affect the accuracy of an hourglass: The amount or volume of sand usedThe size and angle of the glass bulbsThe quality of the sand or granular material. It must be fine, dry and consistently formed so it can flow smoothly. (Some substances used in the past were fine grain sand, powdered eggshells, and powdered marble.)The width of the neckA tight seal so no moisture can get into the chambers. Moisture can add weight to the sand or clog up the neck.A flat and level surface on which to rest the hourglass The Hourglass Manufacturing Process After the design and materials are selected, the body of the hourglass is blown on a glass lathe to a size appropriate for the size (time interval) of the hourglass.The frame is made; depending on its design, it may be a single piece or multiple pieces including a bottom, top, and three or four posts. This manufacture depends on the material. If the frame is made of resin, molds may be constructed, the resin is poured in and allowed to cure, the pieces are sanded or otherwise smoothed and polished, and they are fitted together. Frame pieces may be fitted to interlock; or they may be glued, bonded, or welded, again depending on the materials involved.One of the most common misconceptions about hourglasses is that there is a formula for the quantity of sand contained in the glass. The sand quantity in a given hourglass design or shape is not based on science or a measurement formula. The types of grains, the curves of the glass, and the shape and size of the opening impose too many variables on the rate of flow of the sand through the glass, so the amount of sand can not be mathematically calculated. Before the top of the frame is sealed, sand is added and allowed to flow through the glass for its prescribed time interval. At the end of that time period, sand remaining in the top of the glass is poured off and the glass is sealed. hourglass facts, hourglass symbolism, hourglass timer, hourglass clock, hourglass sand timer, Father Time and Mother of Time, hourglass definition, hourglass for sale, sand clock wikipedia, Hourglass - symbol of Death, History of Hourglass

The Conversion Trap
Tumblr media
“HEY!” shouted Mr. Driver as fire and dashy lines floated around him.
“What do you want?” asked the girl. Her eyes were squinty and a large blob of sweat formed on the back of her head.
“I challenge you to a battle for the fate of the world!!”
With that, Mr. Driver drew an impossible to wield sword and lunged at the girl. In an instant, she spun around with sparkles glitter and kitties appearing out of nowhere in a tornado of light and became Super-Happy-Moonfire-Princess, and a 100 page story about every laser and punch ever thrown (ever) with tons of monologues in between happened.
Sound like a good read?
No.
Why?
It’s too much...everything.
I wrote a similar post a few months ago, but I thought I’d revisit the subject with an example. There are many writers like me who are also big fans of anime, manga and video games. As a result, a lot of us like to transcribe the coolest scripts we have in our head that run like a show, and try to make them into books. It’s a cool premise, but it often doesn’t play out the way we want it to from the reader’s perspective.
My fellow otaku authors, a friendly reminder: Books a medium of words. Comics are a medium of drawings. A picture is worth a thousand words. A story will be never ending or impossible to follow if we don’t simplify and adapt accordingly.
By simplifying the events and not describing every anime trope we would see on screen, we get a more fluid result.
“Hey!” shouted Mr. Driver. His stare was fierce, his stance intimidating.
She slammed her drink on the table, tired of his endless disturbances. “What do you want?”
He reached around his back and drew his blade. While massive, he took a battle-stance as if it were featherweight. She shot up  from her seat, knowing he meant business.
“I challenge you to a final fight - for the fate of the world!”
He darted for her, but in a colorful flash her powers activated. The two unstoppable forces clashed for hours, not giving the other an inch.
TLDR: If we, as writers that like to tell over-the-top stories based on our favorite hobby remember to keep things short, simple and accessible to everyone who might not be “in the know”, we’ll have more success, and more fun doing what we do ^^
R.T. OUT!!

Dayton expected to pick lieutenant governor to replace Franken if he resigns
With Zach Montellaro and Elena Schneider
The following newsletter is an abridged version of Campaign Pro’s Morning Score. For an earlier morning read on exponentially more races — and for a more comprehensive aggregation of the day’s most important campaign news — sign up for Campaign Pro today. (http://www.politicopro.com/proinfo)
Story Continued Below
FRANKEN FALLOUT — Announcement coming from Franken today, his office announced. No word yet on the substance of the announcement after more than half of the Democratic Senate caucus called for him to resign Wednesday, in the wake of new sexual harassment allegations. Franken’s official Twitter account denied a news report saying that he had decided to resign, saying that no decision had yet been made. “Senator Franken is talking with his family at this time and plans to make an announcement in D.C. tomorrow. Any reports of a final decision are inaccurate,” the account tweeted.
— “Female lieutenant governor expected to replace Franken if he resigns,” by Campaign Pro’s Maggie Severns: “Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton is expected to appoint his lieutenant governor and close ally, Tina Smith, to Al Franken’s seat if the Democratic senator resigns [today], three people familiar with the Democratic governor’s thinking said. But that appointment would be just the start of a huge upheaval in Minnesota. Part of the reason Smith could be heading to the Senate, the sources said, is because she has indicated no interest in running for Congress in the past and would not run for the remainder of Franken’s term, which expires in 2020, in a 2018 special election. That would clear the way for a wide-open Democratic primary next year if Franken steps down. … [Smith] is a former marketing professional who served as chief of staff to former Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak. She worked at the mayor’s office in 2007, when the Interstate 35W bridge collapsed in Minneapolis, and played a role in helping rebuild the bridge in the months that followed.” Full story.
— “DNC chief Perez initially declined to call for Franken ouster,” by POLITICO’s Gabriel Debenedetti: “Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez declined late last week to call for Sen. Al Franken’s resignation, holding off after discussions with top aides who wanted him to do so, three senior Democrats with knowledge of the discussions told POLITICO. Perez called for Franken’s resignation on Wednesday, after Democratic senators started calling for his exit for the first time. But the move came days after a group of high-level DNC staffers, including CEO Jess O’Connell, last week spoke with Perez about the need to push for Franken’s ouster. After the chairman consulted with several senators and political allies, he opted against calling for the Minnesotan’s ouster over allegations of sexual misconduct before Senate Democrats did so.” Full story.
DAILY WAR EAGLE — “Jones mailer attacks racial double standard on Moore,” by Campaign Pro’s Daniel Strauss: “A mailer distributed by Democrat Doug Jones’ Senate campaign asks: ‘Think if a black man went after high school girls anyone would try to make him a senator?’ The mailer shows an African-American man wearing a skeptical look under that sentence. The mailer in the closing days of Alabama’s Senate special election references sexual misconduct and child molestation allegations against Republican Roy Moore. Moore has denied the allegations and recently won a re-endorsement by President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee.” See a picture of the mailer here. Full story.
— In Jones’ latest ad, he says to the camera: “I’ll never embarrass you.” Jones also pledges to work across party lines in the spot. See the ad here.
HE’S IN — “Bredesen running for Senate,” by Nashville Post’s Cari Wade Gervin: “Former Gov. Phil Bredesen is entering the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate. According to multiple sources, Bredesen began calling major donors [Wednesday] afternoon to confirm that he is in the race. He has been mum about a campaign since U.S. Sen. Bob Corker announced he would step down next year, only acknowledging that he was contemplating a run. A formal announcement of his intent to run has not yet been made. … Bredesen has not faced a seriously competitive race since 2002, when he narrowly beat out Republican Van Hilleary for governor, and the campaign landscape has changed dramatically even since his last race in 2006.” Full story.
NEW THIS MORNING — AAN promotes tax bill with TV, digital blitz: American Action Network is airing TV and digital ads, part of a $2 million ad effort, in 24 House districts in support of the GOP’s tax bill. The legislation “means a simpler, fairer tax code – that cuts middle-class taxes, boosts the child tax credit, and closes loopholes so everyone pays their fair share,” says the ad’s narrator. Check out the list of House seats here. Watch the TV ad here.

BLUE TO RED — “Indiana GOP Senate candidate voted Democrat until 2012,” by The Associated Press’s Brian Slodysko: “A wealthy Indiana Senate candidate who bills himself in television ads as a conservative Republican voted for more than a decade as a Democrat in the state’s primary elections, according to public documents obtained by The Associated Press. Records from the Dubois County Clerk’s office, where candidate Mike Braun is registered to vote, show the 63-year-old consistently cast Democratic ballots until 2012. … He began voting as a Democrat in at least 1996, according to county records that date back only 25 years. That continued through the 2008 primary, where Hillary Clinton narrowly defeated Barack Obama.” Full story.
DEEP IN THE HEART… — “Dallas Sheriff Lupe Valdez announces she’s resigning to run for governor,” by The San Antonio Express-News’ Peggy Fikac: “Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez said Wednesday she is jumping into the Democratic race for governor, a day ahead of Houston businessman Andrew White’s formal announcement for the post. ‘Like so many hardworking Texans, I know it’s tough deciding between buying food, finding a decent place to live and setting aside money for college tuition. Opportunity in Texas ought to be as big as this great state, but it is out of reach for far too many, that’s why I’m running for Texas governor,’ Valdez said in a statement.” Full story.
KING CHALLENGER — “Trump wants LePage to challenge King in Maine Senate race,” by The Washington Post’s Josh Dawsey: “President Donald Trump is pushing Maine Gov. Paul LePage to run for the U.S. Senate, according to White House advisers. Trump has told advisers he plans to call Mr. LePage, the bombastic governor who endorsed him in February 2016, and ask him to jump in against Sen. Angus King (I-Maine.) in 2018 — and that he would endorse him. King is an independent who often caucuses with Democrats. … LePage’s approval rating in Maine is 42 percent, according to Morning Consult, ranking him the seventh least popular governor in the country. He has caught flak in Maine for controversial statements about minorities, threatening comments to a lawmaker in a voicemail message and an assertion that he makes up stories to fool the political press, who he castigates in personal terms.” Full story.
GETTING THE NOD — VoteVets adds four House endorsements: VoteVets endorsed four new House Democratic challengers, including Gina Ortiz Jones (TX-23), Damon Martinez (NM-01), Conor Lamb (PA-18) and Maura Sullivan (NH-01).
QUOTE OF THE DAY: “I think many people have been talking about this for some time. And we all responded with what we had been feeling today.” — Sen. Patty Murray after she called for Sen. Al Franken to step down.
