People just out, doing their thing, eating tacos. Dia de los Muertos shrines everywhere
Anyway if you havent voted in SF it’s going to be super easy. Vote totals will matter re aftermath, many important down ballot races and propositions to weigh in. #Vote2020
Loving Trumpers who're like "what about James fucking Madison you POS" and I'm sorry that I didn't feel it needed to be spelled out—amid a news cycle about Trump fortifying WH before the election—that I was discussing w/r/t elections, and not the War of 1812.

She still owes Klaidman a real fucking apology, for one thing.
