Look. Times are hard. Shit sucks.
Here's a live feed of 11 Springer Spaniel puppies from Finland. Their mother's name is Maru. She shows up every few hours to feed them. She's understandably fucking tired. Just an adorable pack of potates who excel at bettering your mood.

Shutting down the government is a big deal. People have been hurt in big ways as a result of the decision. To have that suffering be for nothing—to re-open the government without actually having protected people’s health insurance and economic well-being—is unconscionable.

Oh, look. According to Google the ACA tax credit for a year would cost just about the same as the $20B we’re sending to Argentina. What was that about America first?

Trump didn’t even pay the workers who tore down the East Wing of the White House. Don’t even consider conceding for an empty promise! Looking at you Senate Dems.

Why aren’t the airlines paying for air traffic controllers? Why do taxpayers have to subsidize what they need to conduct their business? And TSA? Isn’t that to keep flying on their planes safe? I don’t get it.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
