“…we’re gonna need a bigger vote”—your way with words is an absolute delight 😂

Cletus is one weird looking fish! Darren sounds like a great neighbor! And yes, Dems definitely need a bigger vote!

Change can't come as soon enough.

Hooooray for Mariano and Darren! Cletus does look a little eerie "standing" upright like that.

under know your building etc, that same day i was in the recently opened 86 million buck new new museum settling in for a rewarding afternoon of art when suddenly, soddenly, the guards started hustling our asses out of there with news that the museum was closed because of floods. your stellar resourceful staff could pick up extra work there. got the same safety alert to boot as we were cast into death defying conditions and i biked home to tend to my miraculously not leaking 1860's building. new york never flails to astonish.

😳😳😳 And YOU never fail to astonish! I'm too much of a scaredy cat to bike in that kind of weather (and it wasn't even that bad when I left home). Hat's off to you, Pat, and you're a woman with many, many hats. I've seen them. XX
