the funny part is going to be when nobody thinks of turning off all those videos of Noem at the airports, and they just play until the whole admin finally crumbles

every day in the extra space in my planner, I jot down a quick list of who and what I saw that day and today so bonkers I had to borrow some space from tomorrow
Afterglow fangirled outside w Adelita Grijalva while waiting for Ubers lol. Needed the reminder today there are still good people
that was so fun
lol they pulled Dingell and Nicole Malliotakis (r-ny) on stage and Carter says they are working on “educating” Malliotakis
(Patty and Lynda, not Gary and Debbie)
wait the two of them have the same birthday and birth time????
Lynda Carter in a gold sparkly suit talks to Patty Jenkins on a stage
does the state of Michigan have close ties to the Wonder Woman franchise or are Gary Peters and Debbie Dingell both just coincidentally fans, and other things you sometimes need to know when you live here
I didn’t know wolf blitzer was obsessed with it which is very funny because it’s just so patently obviously price inflated even to me as a non-driver
haha I wondered what the deal with this place was. The only people who seem to fill up there are police
capitol police apparently having quite a week too
have walked by several very dazed looking house dems on my way home
There it is: Noem out, Mullin in
wow don’t walk and post
I apparently walked up once signs had been confiscated but it was apparently this was related to PEPFAR funds being withheld
they kept saying “bill” I think so maybe to do with the war powers resolution vote but too chaotic to tell
no idea
i believe I shall caffeine elsewhere
I was here for the hipster coffee shop but dang
Capitol dome obscured by fog
good morning from our nations capital where there’s a dense fog advisory
they told me on Tuesday it might end up getting bumped a week, but apparently soon lol
(and there are reasons to plant some things now to try and get it into the coverage in morning news. all that.)
(also there's not the best history of being honest here) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...
(mainly because it was posted by a staffer's account with very few followers, hasn't been retweeted on main yet despite Sheehy currently getting ratio'd—kinda like they know it might not be a great idea in the end. you can also buy these things places. Might be real but i'm waiting to have feelings)
post from Mike Berg on X saying "Our excellent capitol police dropped off a patch for Senator Sheehy after he helped them remove this unhinged protestor from the hearing." Photo shows a UCSP patch.
fwiw i would reserve a slight bit of skepticism toward this for now
and i would do it again 😂
when i used to teach a rock history class and we got to the lesson about psychedelia and drugs in the 60s, I would read out loud to the class an article he wrote about hippies.... wait for them to erupt into laughter... then tell them my grandpa wrote it and watch them all panic for a sec
in the 60s lol
