Not to step aside from the part where I don't even have a clue what Catfish means or is about because I think it is best not to know. But are we watching the Texas Senate Livestream?
Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
NY Times had an article about Catfish: [link]
I've been tuning in now and then. The irony of the pres of the senate always leaning towards the woman to his side for advice is not lost on me. Also? Texas fucktards.
Cass, I am and I came here b/c I figured there'd be a watch n post.

I am. On tenterhooks. I should be in bed but I can't leave now.

Here's the deal. There were three points of order raised:
1) she said something not germane: sustained by chair
2) assisted by colleague with back brace: submitted to body and sustained
3) germane again: sustained by chair
So now those in favor of the bill are trying to move things towards ending the filibuster, and those against are trying to stall/challenge the points of order sustained.
That's my understanding, anyway.
oh wait, I just refreshed. guess i was behind. sorry.
