Back in my theatre management days, Arcadia was one of my favorite shows I worked on, because the script was so good. I still think about it a lot. If you get a chance to see it, I highly recommend.

@shaheen.senate.gov has her platinum level fantastic healthcare, but she threw millions of Americans under the bus.
This move tonight has to be made to backfire on the GOP and these Senate Dems. I'm sorry we have to fight on 2 fronts at once, America. But these are the cards we've been dealt.

Democratic organizers did our fucking part. We gave Democrats a clean sweep on Tuesday so Chuck Schumer have leverage to negotiate.
Instead, either because of malice or sheer fucking incompetence, he is letting his caucus fold like fucking cowards.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.

Suicidal for centrists to be begging for moderation when now would be a great time to pass some big, ambitious policies and remind people why Democrats are better than Republicans.

Y’all here is a fun fact: Portland has a brand new volunteer organization called “operation inflation” that allows people to borrow inflatable costumes for protests. They just started a couple weeks ago and have like a 160 costume library (and counting because people keep donating).
