I am increasingly convinced that a few Dem factions are unable to feel real joy, celebrate a win, or even appreciate a nice moment without tearing down others. What an incredibly sad way to live your life. Simply gross.

Need some ideas. My brother had a traumatic brain injury years ago. He lives in his own Chicago apt., mostly prepares his own meals, etc. With recent health issues, I need a taskrabbit type of service that I can use when I need his errands run/appointment transpo, etc. like a baby sitter. Thoughts?

I know things have been awful for a while. But, for whatever reason, the last few days have crossed my line in terms of true bananas territory and my ability to be reasonable. We did not have to be here, and I blame those who got us here and *still* justify it. Cole Porter says it best, for me. 🍸🎵🍸🎵

Not to brag, but I just won Christmas. My garden center labels every single tree with a different famous name. Actors, singers, authors, fictional characters, etc. This year? My tree is Dolly Parton. Victory is mine.🍸🍸

I know that we are panicked & depressed from so many issues right now. But, cracks are starting to show in the GOP, and reactions to rising health care costs terrify them. This is not about whether you support M4All or anything else. This is worth a one minute call to even the reddest of Reps.🍸🍸
All 214 House Democrats support legislation to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.
We only need 4 House Republicans to join us.
And we can save healthcare for tens of millions of Americans.

This might be shocking to some, but you can push for your candidate, policy, messaging plan, etc. *without* needing to tear down other Dems. So many of the same pundits/factions with agendas whine about “weak” Dem messaging, ignoring the fact they are the problem. Both transparent and silly.🍸

I know it‘s silly, naive and a bit Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, particularly from one who worked on the Hill & in politics for decades. But, it truly upsets me that every cabinet secretary & department has a primary goal of promoting & protecting Trump, not the country. Unpatriotic and just wrong.🍸

There is an addiction to drama.
A default hyberbole.
It pervades the entire online everything.
And it's not healthy.
It distorts perception.
Then fact based people have to step in and they usually get shouted down because people like to yell and be angry.

I am not in favor of the deal, nor of Schumer, in general, but I ask anyone simply going after Schumer to name *anyone* who could sway the core group voting for it. Anyone.

Maybe I am just super sensitive, at the moment, but I live in the broader flight path of National, and there seem to be a lot of planes flying a *lot* lower today.😳🍸

Ok, my beloved Virginia peeps. This is it. We can absolutely do this. If my chemo riddled self and my 95 year old grandma can do it, so can you! All hands on deck. And anyone bitching about Dem leadership, you are getting muted or blocked. The message today is about voting. #VoteBlue 🍸🍸🍸🍸

Gotta say that a baseball game (no matter how thrilling and satisfying) which lasted until 3am combined with [gesticulating wildly all around] everything going on in the world is not making me *uncrabby*. Enjoy!🍸🍸

Holy Moses. This is almost too on the nose as an example of Trump destroying all things American while lying about it. His plan is literally ripping apart national monuments and treasures. What a picture.🥲
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

I fear that once baseball season is over, I might get even crabbier…if that is possible. In Broadway terms, although I am younger than both, I think I have moved beyond La LuPone snark straight into my Elaine Stritch years.🍸🍸🍸
