Time to Be Woke Again

Gas was expensive, so I naturally expected the Death to America Party to do well in the midterms. But as I read the coverage about the states that we had assumed to be reliably red, I realize that the numbers are worse than I had feared.

I start rummaging frantically through my drawers to find a vaccination card, then I remember I never even got the Covid jab. I worry: How will I prove to everyone that I’m a good progressive who shouldn’t be sent to the guillotine?
