Mookie!🍸🍸🍸🍸

This made me guffaw.🍸🍸

You want better press coverage, more effective Dem messaging, better polling and more wins? Then BE BETTER MESSENGERS! I know it is hard to fathom, but when the Dems do something good, you can highlight (or even acknowledge) it, without listing on every thread 20 other things you want this second.🍸🍸

Introduce yourself with 10 bands you've seen live: 🍸🍸🍸 1. Prince 2. Patti LuPone 3. Bob Dylan 4. Aretha Franklin 5. Beastie Boys 6. Springsteen 7. Aerosmith 8. Joni Mitchell 9. Mandy Patinkin 10. Bette Midler

I will simply reup my post on Barney Frank from a few weeks ago. Fair wind and following seas to one of my early heroes who helped shape the kind of speeches I aspired to craft.🍸🍸🍸

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social Did you see that Rep.Jasmine Crockett just endorsed Becerra?🍸❤️

I have to admit that today has me feeling a bit better about Dems here. I am *finally* seeing more posts with Dems focusing more on midterms over nonsense polls/narratives about 2028. And a lot more pushback against the “Dems are doing nothing” and “Both parties are the same” bullshit. Thank you.🍸

Mookie!🍸❤️🍸❤️🍸

This is not meant as divisive, rather a wake-up call. In 2018, Nancy Pelosi led the DCCC to flipping 40+ House seats red to blue. Groups like Our Revolution & Justice Dems flipped zero. None. Show voters you understand the assignment. Give us workhorses over showponies. Actions over Dem clapback.🍸

I have some writing to do today, so I am spending the day watching baseball, posting here and wandering around my house in a long turtleneck, knee socks and fuzzy slippers. #LivingMyBestLife 🍸🍸

Mookie is back! The world just got a tiny bit better. Grab joy where you can find it.🍸🍸

Hot take: People whining about having to vote more than once, still bitching about wearing masks & bars closed during COVID, jumping on the whatever populist issue is currently the shiniest and who value showponies over workhorses & clapback over actions are not who you need for a “revolution”.🍸

A friend of mine is taking his first ever trip to Yellowstone, and he asked if he will get to see bison. All I could think of was the following. It never fails to make me laugh.🍸🍸 youtu.be/EvptWXUJfKs?...

Sounds about right.🍸🍸

This is important, and more than a bit terrifying. Follow the patterns. They are specific, targeted attacks. Yes, others are being targeted, as well, but the numbers don’t lie.🍸🍸

I am thrilled that people who ignored huge warnings about SCOTUS/judges are now focused. But, none of it means anything without success at Midterms. Every faction still playing selfish purity games and using all of their energy attacking Dems hurts our chances. We stand for democracy or it falls.🍸🍸

Holy Moly! Apparently Matt Gaetz is a serial 86er. He is admitting it! Won’t anyone think of poor Mitch McConnell? Wellness check needed. STAT!🍸🤪🍸

Apparently we had more than a few very online cosplay-left pundits wake up this morning feeling mighty thirsty for attention. Thus, a whole round of “Dems/Liberals all suck“ threads for certain factions to stamp their feet and whine while feeling righteous. Tiresome, but predictable AF.🍸🍸

This simply makes me smile. Sometimes that is enough.🍸🍸

#AprilMovieChallenge #Filmsky 🎥 Movie based on a work of William Shakespeare.🍸🍸

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social Glad you had a solid lunch. It looks like the Dodgers are on super early for you, and we need to buckle in for this one to get back on track.🍸

I love my state. Virginia rocks.🍸🍸

Ok, my fellow Virginia peeps. We can do this! I will say again, if my tired, lazy, chemo-ridden self and my 95 year old grandma can drag each other to the polling place, so can you! Let’s do this and send a *loud* message! #VoteYesVA🍸🤣🍸

Are we going to make it through *any* day before midterms where certain factions/showponies/large online accounts are not going to start feeling needy and thus start yet another shitting on all Dems thread? Just one day focusing on how existentially awful and dangerous Trump and the GOP are?🍸

I feel like I‘m in Bananaland. How is Platner still in? Leave aside the Nazi tattoo, his lies about it, his past & present use of slurs and his gross work history. The fact is he voted for Collins multiple times, his *own staff* resigned over these issues and zero experience. Fetterman redux?🍸

I love this.🍸🍸

This is a dance off. If you see this repost a dance.🍸

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social Having Joe Buck and Ron Darling announcing the Dodger game on Jackie Robinson Day has me thinking some pretty uncharitable things.😒

I am often simply gobsmacked to see Trumpers give up friends, family, science, education, patriotism, health, safety & now their religion in service of one proven liar, felon and murderous leader. And for what? To be able to hate the same people? The world sees it, when will Trumpers? Pure cult.🍸

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social Just good, solid Dodger baseball tonight. That is all I ask.🍸

I am a recovering Catholic, but Trump saying “The Pope is WEAK on crime” might make me laugh for an hour. I think I need the t-shirt.

For my bestest baseball buddy, @nycbubbles.bsky.social ⚾️🍸

WTH is even happening? If you have multiple sexual assault allegations against you, get out of the race. If you had a Nazi tattoo for decades & were making bigoted & revolting comments as a grown-ass man, get out of the race. And if you knew about these things and said nothing, you suck, as well.🍸🍸

Can’t stand the Mets, but this is a classy move and a pretty great way to see the splashdown.🍸🍸🍸

This made me laugh out loud. And then sigh loudly and dramatically. If only…🍸🍸🍸

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social I think just knowing Mookie is in town right now is putting me in a rare, cheerier mood.

Love this. Why limit greatness to a month? We can celebrate women all year long! #WomenRule 🍸🍸🍸

This just makes me stupidly happy.🍸🍸🍸

One of my favorite days of the year! Baseball Opening Day (night)! #GoDodgers #GoYankees 🍸🍸⚾️⚾️

I was ready to be in a perfectly delightful mood today (as if). Why the hell is the Yankees/Cubs game not being streamed? 😠🤬

@corbin-trotter.bsky.social A few more innings like that, and I might be downright pleasant this spring.

This is almost too much good to put on my TL. I am not nearly worthy of the level of joy it brings me. From the kids involved to the actions of the penguins, just perfection. Enjoy.🍸🍸

Le sigh on reposting myself, but I am getting sick to death of supposed allies with the BS narrative that Dems are silent/doing nothing/all donor driven, etc. on every damned issue. Do 10 seconds of research. Expand your bubble. Be messengers rather than whiners. Build, stop knee-jerk tearing down.🍸

This is such a perfect post.🍸🍸🍸

For someone who cannot knit a stitch and has never built anything with Legos, I follow, and adore, a shocking number of people who do both. I still have no interest in starting with either, but I love their love for them. And videos of people knitting are oddly soothing to me.🍸🍸

It was 85 degrees here in DC yesterday. Right now it is 35 and snowing hard. This is not ok.🍸

I understand that I am desperate for some comic relief, but this is perfection.🍸🤣🍸

On a completely unrelated *to anything* note, I had a flashback to this movie and thought I was making it up in my head. Nope. If it has to be in my head, I must insist it is now in yours. Enjoy!🤣🍸🍸 youtu.be/io53QMwHZ48?...

Perfection.🍸🍸

I mean, this may as well be the Trump Administration motto on so many issues from war to guns to healthcare, schools, regulations, basic civil rights, the environment, etc. 🍸🍸
