This sounds like my worst nightmare. That being said, the first time I went to the Masque of the Red Death in London in 2007 (a similarly immersive show by Punchdrunk long before Sleep No More was brought to NYC), my friend sprung it on me as we were entering, they handed me a mask and were like “do not walk with your…

Nope. #TeamMoore

Agreed!!

Apparently they are worth $80-90 million. So yeah, I guess they wouldn’t feel this. I still can’t imagine still throwing that kind of money around for kids who don’t even want to go to college, just for their image. Ridiculous.

I loved the first few seasons of the Real World. LOVED. I was in high school when this was on, and I was transitioning from growing up a fundamentalist Christian to becoming a liberal agnostic, and this show really opened my eyes in a lot of ways. Pedro deeply impacted our generation, his death was devastating.

Hmm, maybe. There have also been a lot of leaked reports this week from “advisers to the campaign” that he wasn’t listening to them on prep, he was doing his own thing, etc. Hard to know who those leakers were, how close they are to him and how accurate it is, but he might be just ignoring advice and doing his own…

At least she is confining her crazy to within the party and not pulling votes away from the potential nominee.  That makes me give bonus points to Marianne.  

I actually disagree. This is just how he runs. There is a reason he has run so many times and tanked so many times. He is not a strong candidate on his own, at all. In fact, a lot of people were worried when Obama picked him as a running mate because of his historic gaffes. This is why Obama encouraged him not to run.…

I’d agree with the debate performance assessment. Regarding Harris and Warren as campaigners, I think it is actually flipped. Warren and Harris had similar poll numbers going into the last few months, and Warren has surged in the polls with her campaigning prowess. I think that is Harris’ weak suit. She is very well…

To me, a very interesting thing about that exchange is a hugely significant portion of Biden’s support comes from a heavily black voter base. And if that support craters, he craters. So one would think he would have put in some effort to think through these types of answers and scenarios. But this highlighted who he…

After last night, I’m feeling a Warren/Harris ticket. So guess I’ll have a kale caesar at the buffet today.

I loved the Drew Barrymore/Nancy Juvonen Charlie’s Angels series (still toting around the DVDs). But I can handle a remake for this type of series! I did not know this was coming though, somehow I missed it, and I went from “ew, remake, what?” to “YES, I’M IN” watching the trailer. Plus, Elizabeth Banks has pretty…

I mean, she is definitely a Russian asset. https://www.thedailybeast.com/tulsi-gabbards-campaign-is-being-boosted-by-russophiles

Agreed!  Also, let’s hear it for a history making night. Although Warren is the only one I’m ride or die for, we had three women on stage at a Presidential Debate for the first time in history. And the second time in history will be tonight. It may be late, but it is still rad.  

Excellent point.  

I agree with the first part, but after last night I’d love to see a Warren Castro ticket. We’ll see how my feelings on this change after the second and future debates!  

I thought he looked seriously ill and super uncomfortable on stage. Like, this was not his strong suit AT ALL. He needs a truck he can climb on and to speak to people. I don’t think the debates are going to help him.

He had the least amount of speaking time according to the Washington Post, but I thought what he had to say in the time he spoke was impressive and he accounted himself well. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2019/politics/who-spoke-most-at-democratic-debate-june/

I cannot stand Tim Ryan. Luckily he did not shine, I don’t think he’ll be in this very long.  

I thought Warren, Castro, Booker & Inslee were most impressive. While Inslee spoke the least, he did well with the time he had. Gabbard did ok for herself, too, but that just annoys me because I have disdain for her and want her to go away fast.
