Trump suggests federal control of elections in ‘some areas’ In a lengthy interview with NBC, the president said he will accept the results of the midterm elections if they are “honest.”

This is an authoritarian power grab, full stop.

Nationalizing elections would put the executive branch in control of who votes and how. That’s how dictators rig outcomes, crush opposition, and assault democratic self-government.

This should alarm everyone: www.ms.now/news/trump-s...

Y'all, we shipped ~45k whistles in December.

I think we shipped ~35k whistles TODAY.

This team of rogue 3D printing enthusiasts is... really rocking & rolling. 💓💃 And thank you to all of you who helped supply the filament & shipping $ so that could happen!

Everyone vote for the most progressive candidate you can today so Dick Cheney has to watch his nightmare unfold on land as he sinks down into hell

A pain scale with the following categories 

No Pain
Minimal 
Uncomfortable 
Moderate
Distracting 
Distressing
Unmanaged 
Intense
Severe
Unable to move

I found this pain scale for chronic pain and it’s the most accurate one I’ve ever seen.

I’m always at a distressing or unmanageable. I dream of a day it is just distracting.

Problematic Summer Romance was so fucking good (hence the whole posting at 2:18 am).

It was just so fun.

Israel has now detained a group of international activists. apnews.com/article/mide...

I just love Darren Criss. He’s a theater fan boy through and through.

What a lovely speech.

I just listened to the cast album of Real Women Have Curves and it is incredible!!!

I still remember the first time I saw the movie - really wish I could see this show.

Not sure if this is nostalgia bias but as much as I liked the nominees that I saw, it really does not feel like the telecast is helping sell these shows the way it did when I was younger (bad sound mix, wonky camera work, odd song selections, etc.)

On what PLANET could anyone claim that Nicole was better than THAT?!?!?

Audra is the most talented performer to ever grace the stage. I feel lucky to be alive at the same time as her.

Or even better - Norm Lewis should have sung “Anytime”.

THAT would have been perfect.

What the hell wasn’t the In Memorium song “What Would I Do?”

I mean, I know everyone would be puddles on the floor, but it would have perfect.

This is lovely and all, but I wanted a full Bill Finn tribute. He deserved and so did we. #TonyAwards

I know. But it’s not a great song. And the line “gotta hang on til tomorrow” seems…off for the segment.

I really want to see Dead Outlaw. And Floyd Collins. And Maybe Happy Endings. And Pirates! And all the shows that haven’t performed yet.

I can’t even afford them if I win the lotteries for them 😭😭😭

Weird song choice for In Memorium. But thinking about Gavin Creel is making me cry.

I knew I would enjoy the Hamilton performance. But that transported me back to the first time I heard that cast album. I’m in awe of all of them all over again.
