It feels like a really concrete good that I did.
Thanks, Dana! I'm very appreciative.
Zoe: Captain will come up with a plan. Kaylee: That's good. Right? Zoe: Possibly you're not recalling some of his previous plans.

Name recognition is a bear. The local school district candidate I supported, and for whom my niece canvassed, got shellacked by a previous incumbent who jumped into the race at the last minute. Sigh. The OUSD is losing millions and millions to charter schools, and the board seems to be doing nothing to protect its students.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I thought I had my anxiety under control. At 9pm last night I turned of the TV, turned off the computer, and went to bed. I STILL wasn't able to get any sleep. And this morning I checked the results, and they were more or less what I expected, and I'm still anxious as hell. Fuck.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Tom, anxiety is a big jerk. Is there anything you can do to try to dial it down? (Sometimes that works for me, and sometimes it doesn't.)

Our wings are not tired.
I keep trying to focus on the obvious gains, but I live in Florida and the view is bleak. I know we would have won the Governor seat with Gwen Graham leading the ticket instead of Gillum, but I was still excited for the youth turnout that gave him the nomination. It just sucks.
The only thing that will fix my despair is Nancy Pelosi hitting the ground running and the new committee chairpersons making Trump's life miserable. Indictments for Don Jr. and Jared would be super sweet too.
Time for me to focus on other things for a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, sorry, Florida.
I'm not surprised, but a little heartbroken, about Beto.

Because books.
Me too, Jesse.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
All I wanted was control of the House, and we got it. Sad about Beto, but not surprised. I'll be thrilled if a recount pulls it out for Abrams. And I am thrilled that Walker and Kobach are out. Nasty fucking men. Go be toadies for Trump.

This is where I am. Hell, 100 women were elected to Congress yesterday. Native American women, Muslim women, other women of color -- this is fantastic.
