I am a realist, results-focused Democratic candidate, running to represent District 17 (Rockville & Gaithersburg) in Maryland’s House of Delegates. In recent years, we have seen Marylanders priced out, and leaving the state in droves. Our bills are soaring, the state is increasing fees across the board, and now this folly of a war has jacked up fuel prices on top of everything else.
Right now we have leaders who are more focused on being obstinate, or worse actively fighting for regressive policies. At each event this campaign cycle, I’ve seen my competitors spend majority of their time spouting glittering generalities, and mudslinging. If that is the energy they’re bringing to Annapolis, it’s no wonder Maryland is backsliding.
According to U.S. News & World Report, nationally Maryland ranks:
• 42 in Affordability
• 45 in Transportation
• 48 in Economic Growth
• 35 in Public Safety
As Marylanders, we don’t have to passively accept the degrading quality of our home. If you want someone who is going to focus solely on their constituents, if you want someone who won’t waste time playing into party politics, if you want someone who’s only concern is improving the quality of Maryland, then vote Reed for Delegate at the polls this month.
Let’s turn things around together.

I already ripped a VHS copy of Six Flags’ film Barnaby and Me. But I’m very excited to announce I’ve obtained an original film print of the movie, so I’ll be able to share with you all a MUCH HIGHER quality scan of the movie!
@DeferToGenius Thank you, I appreciate that more than you know. It feels like more often than not, I’m just yelling into the void with little acknowledgement. The lack of outward interest has hampered my dedication over the years. I’m glad there are indeed people out there who are interested.🫶

Did you know in the 1970s, @SixFlags expanded into the film business? They released a handful of movies, including the film that introduced @SallyBoyden to the world, 'Barnaby and Me.'
@radiohouston Here’s the original VHS rip. It’s pretty poor quality overall. I’m so happy to have been able to obtain an original theatrical print! After I get it digitized, there will only be one other Six Flags theatrical film to track down.

Rain or shine Rotary Club Gaithersburg is outside honoring American heroes with their Field of Honor! Drop by Bohrer Park and sponsor a hero in your life! I nominated my uncle Theron Smith, who a few generations back passed away in France during WWI. Who will you name as your hero?
Since 2021, Maryland has gone without an official state song. This may seem like a nonissue to some. But shared cultural symbols, like a state song matter. It's part of the connective tissue that helps foster civic identity, state pride, tradition, and a sense of belonging cross generations of Marylanders.
The obvious choice for a replacement is Henry Fillmore's Lord Baltimore March. Inspired by the founding of Maryland, it carried dignity, prestige, and historical character without any of the baggage that surrounded the previous song Maryland, My Maryland.
Maryland deserves a state song that will unite people, and celebrate our history. At a time when America feels increasingly divided, Maryland should be investing in the shared traditions and cultural symbols that bring communities together. Regardless of whether I am elected, I will continue working to bridge the cultural gaps between our citizens, and strengthen our sense of common identity.
For the record, I have zero idea if this was a fully animated show at the park, or if it was just for tv commercials. In 1975, @SixFlagsOverTX ran animated commercials with Cyrus Cosmo.
Thank you to Charlie Rose on Facebook for archiving these original animation cels from the 1976 Six Flags Over Texas show “Cyrus Cosmo and His New Magic Show.”
Summer just got brighter! 🌟 #SixFlagsFiestaTexas is extending hours until 9PM from June 15–Aug. 9. Plus, catch the all-new #FiestaLuz drone show lighting up the night sky! 🚁✨
