Reps. Ilhan Omar, Cori Bush and AOC have all put out "Biden is the nominee, support him" statements. The left-most part of the Democratic Party fighting to keep him while the right-most part—centrists, swing district Reps, NeverTrumpers, etc.—push for him to drop out was not on many Bingo cards.

Seeing BTS Army skeets popping up recently, and honestly, one of the best fan bases to come to thus platform as a whole. Like, Kpop isn't for me, but I think the BTS fans are really great. And it's another sign of the ongoing crumble of Twitter. I'm glad to see y'all, BTS Army.

I'm just grateful that the only two people I know who won't vote for Biden are both Californians. I only continue to speak to them because they won't vote for Trump.

Son's girlfriend was hanging with my crazy family and friends sans my son. Reported back she had to leave because my BIL and very good friend were arguing about politics. Specifically? LBJ. They were heatedly arguing about LBJ.

Asking my Brit husband if I'm pronouncing the new PM's name correctly, he assures me I am. I say aloud, "Here's hoping I need to care how it's pronounced for a long time." Any chance to needle that pro-Brexit dude I married.

Absolutely impossible to imagine but I'm in England on the day of the Euros final. Could it be? Could it be? No freakin' way in hell, but I'm going to hope. But if you force me to choose between England winning Euros and Dems winning presidency and Senate, I'm choosing the latter.

I saw someone speak of stasis today -- a word I've not seen used in a very long time except by me just this morning -- and I feel interconnected to so many humans right now. And I'm not a fan of humans. Generally speaking.

Everyone watching any Bond movie: this is utterly unrealistic, no one would stand there and say exactly how they were going to do some awful thing, the Incredibles even made a joke about monologuing. Everyone experiencing reality: Oh. Oh, I see.

I recommend taking five to ten minutes to put your US rep, US senators, and state and local elected officials into your phone contacts so you can instantly call them whenever you get mad, which will be every day from now until we die.
