My mom: [something about pandas]
Me: Yeah. Okay. Wow.
Mom: [Why are they taking the pandas??!]
Me: Yeah. Boy, I don’t know.
Mom: “Can’t you do something?”
Me: You want me to, what, call Antony Blinken and demand pandas negotiations?
Mom: Can you do that?
Me: Sure mom.
Mom: Good!

Anti-trans politics does not win elections.
Congratulations, Senator Roem!
