#filibustering

i should be elected to the senate so that when the next bullshit bill is introduced i can stand up, tap the microphone, crack open my copy of the silmarillion, and turn the united states congress into a tolkien conference

My two sons, Gerrymander and Filibuster

Filibustering is wild. Someone literally said “I don’t like that” and then just would not stfu about it.

Was anyone else just like. foaming at the mouth for the chance to pull a filibuster as a kid,, like I thought it was just where you get to talk about your hyperfixations for literal hours and people have to pay attention,, my absolute greatest hopes and dreams when I was 11
