I'm assuming the color of the condom portends some looming disaster. (It's Chekov's Condom.) Good. Although I think Lorinda is a sympathetic character, she obviously hasn't thought through the implications of living in a country where people bring guns to a house party. Like modern American MAGATs.
First time I read any of this so far and the opener to this one paragraph is gold. "No shots were fired during the half-hour they were in Finn’s room."
I’m a McWeeny voter, but mostly because I’m happy to offload North Dakota. It’s a hard choice, though, since both candidates love Jesus SO MUCH (as evidenced by the fist fighting).
Read it last night in my email. I'm really enjoying this story, as frightening as it is. Personally, I would welcome it a split in this country. I would love to see the backs of the Trumpers in my town as they pack their shit and move to their new homeland. My town and state would literally improve overnight if these people left. They've done nothing but degrade everyone's life with their presence and their insane politics. And we would welcome people like Lorinda warmly if they chose to escape the evangelical police state that is the south.
Hell, go on Reddit and you can read story after story of women who were forced to have children solely because they can no longer get abortion services in their state, and/or could not afford to travel to a state that does, or just didn't have the wherewithal to get out of their situation.
This is happening now, today. This story is a great look at what might be just around the corner.
I'm not so sure about that. We live about a highway half an hour from the Idaho border. Idaho is effectively the Mississippi of the PNW.
They are not pleasant neighbors and they bring too much of their aggression, repression, and desires for further all-out oppression into Blue eastern Washington.
I've done a little traveling in central and eastern Washington. I really loved the tiny bit I saw but it struck me as pretty red, no? This was in 2021.
Misters Radlauer and Weiner, I become more entrenched in this unfolding context of dramas with every Monday segment. My single criticism of this narrative opening forth before us not unlike the petals of a flower when in bloom is the agonizing week-long wait for the forthcoming excerpt.
I've come to believe that, if push comes to shove, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Vermont could make up a pretty decent country. We'll call it Vermassanecticut Island. We'll consider admitting Maine, after another election cycle or two, and New Hampshire should consider moving itself bodily to the western corner of Virginia.
Excuse me. I live in NH. We're not beyond hope! We have full Democratic federal representation (Sen. Hassan, Sen. Shaheen, Rep. Pappas, Rep. Kuster) and basically a 50/50 split in the state legislature. We have two excellent dems in the governor's race. We have a real shot at taking government back next year. Before the state was gerrymandered, dems had the state house, executive council and the legislature for 6 full years. As opposed to Maine, who still has the awful Susan Collins and had dreadful Paul LePage for two cycles.
The names. First Lorinda. Then Oliver Waldrip - not Brezelius Windrip. McWeeny, not Hector MacGoblin.
I smell a worthy homage to "It Can't Happen Here"

Not yet she hasn't.
This is eerily similar to what life is already like in rural America. Bravo! I'm on the edge of my seat.

I'm in Maryland, so we'll hook up with NJ, Delaware and NY.

Yeah, but BOTH SIDES!
McWeeny sounds like a fast food joint that sells hotdogs and wursts and stuff.
“McWeeny” *giggles childishly*
"Heh heh heh meh heh heh..."

Nevertheless I am hooked.

Maine would join before Rhode Island.
Northwest Virginia?
Southwest.
Way over here in the PNW I dream about Washington state, Oregon and California uniting as a single entity.
We would comprise one helluva formidable force and presence.

We are taking NH back. You watch.
Sorry. All we ever hear from the MSM is coverage of NH Repunks.
Fine, but you're on probation.
