I will never tire of pointing out to the "DO SOMETHING!" screamers that the GOP didn't have to rely on "revolution" to get us into this shit (they tried that on Jan. 6, of course). They. Voted. That's it.

How does one talk about an empty suit soundbite machine?

But . . . there were CONCEPTS OF A PLAN!

I have enough room to think Nuzzi AND Lizza are gross.

I mean, is it gross for those details to be out in the public eye? Yeah, of course. But let's not pretend that she wouldn't be REVELING in it if it were about someone else - esp a Dem.

I met Paul Simon once when he was my senator as well, and he was lovely.

I will say he was definitely one of the classmates I looked at and thought, "I hope he makes it in this field" because I couldn't imagine him saying, "Eh, this doesn't work out, I'll just go into insurance" or whatever.

God, I love Chris Cooper.

Monroe was smart, though.

Live by the Beltway gossip machine, die by the Beltway gossip machine. (I'm not convinced this is a career killer for her. If she looked like Barbara Mikulski, maybe.)

I mean, he was odd, but we were in our early 20s in theater school, so odd was kind of everyone's default setting.

"Let's all go around and say what we're THANKFUL for!"
"I'm thankful I never supported a party led by an adjudicated rapist that covers up international pedophilia and is attacking and kidnapping people off the streets like Nazi scumbags while destroying our economy. Over to you, Uncle Ralph!"

Andy Dick was my first scene partner in theater school.

If people speak up

Pretending that Olivia Nuzzi is just some nobody who doesn't deserve scrutiny for her private relationships WITH PEOPLE SHE WROTE ABOUT is insulting.

Honestly, I have met my Congresswoman and my state rep (and will soon be meeting my state senator), but it was never the deciding factor in my vote.
