DTC committee meeting over. Met the mayor and most of the leading Democrats in town. Around 25 people showed up and 4 of them were new, including myself. Split rather evenly gender wise but it was mostly older white people.

Sadly they did not want full communism now. On the other hand they turned a normally Republican town to having majority on most of the boards in town and a democratic mayor last year. There's enthusiasm and surprisingly they have a good grasp on why they lost their state elections this year. It's definitely a strong machine already that just needs more people helping out. I'm tempted to try and get on an opening on the ethics commission in town after this.

One part :unsmith: and one part :getin: respective to the bold parts.

Unfortunately I didn't go to my meeting. It started at 7:00PM and I wouldn't be able to get there until at least 7:35PM. I felt like that would have been awkward being late. Hope I didn't make a mistake.

Its not a goddamn executive board meeting. Just show up when you can. jesus

Bernie wakes up, scratches his groggy eyes, does a big wide armed good morning stretch, hops out of bed and frog-squat plops his gentlemen into a pint glass of distilled ginseng he set out the night before. Time to save America.

he also lubricates his creaky joints with maple syrup, enough to keep him going for the day and gesticulate wildly at a bunch of billionaire crooks :kimchi:

I think the XP penalty for that is pretty steep. He might not gain enough levels to beat Trump by then.

I went to this :shobon: my first political meeting of any kind so I didn't know what to expect. Very well attended (they had to file some people into an adjoining room due to exceeding fire marshal's capacity) and a few passionate people. Mostly just setting up stuff for the next meetings, but it was clear that there were a lot of newcomer progressives who wanted to learn more.


Trump: universally considered the best of the 3

oh hey awesome

I couldn't make this one but I'll be at the one next month, probably as one of the grumpier progressives

Unironically yes that would help.

Also, if the Muslims have some kind of special cartoon or video games, that would help relations too

I feel like they need to hire the right PR firm to make Islam hip and cool. I'm pretty sure theres a lot of unemployed creative types right now that could probably get to work on that.

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.

America gained an additional 10 million eligible voters since 2012. She still underperformed. 2012 was seen as an underperforming year. Democrats also underperformed in the Senate and the House. This changes nothing.
