I would like our Lt. Gov to meet an actual Angry Mob.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I worry that Scalia is just trolling the Supreme Court.
Or that he's not.
Both are disturbing.

So are the Txdems prepared to fil. again?
Crap, there's a storm maybe 20 minutes out. I think I'm not swimming tonight. We'll see.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I don't think a filibuster situation can arise again, because the Dems won't be able to delay a vote until the end of the session.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So, what's the real logic behind a filibuster? Clearly it was working for the cause of good yesterday, but is it a loophole or a feature?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Got an emergency haircut, and am feeling much better about myself. Phew!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
"Angry mob"? Fuck you.

I think the right to filibuster in a legislature is a bad idea, does more harm than good and should be eliminated. But so long as it exists, I think any opportunity to use for good should be taken, because I don't believe in unilateral disarmament.
