Thanks for the nostalgia, ERA! Since there are no movies anymore, it's been a while since I watched something and thought it was good until jumping in the OT and finding out I should hate it instead.

Is this supposed to be live? I though folks like AOC pre-recorded their things. The switching is bad.

From what I remember from the 2016 convention it was the mayor of Philadelphia who told the delegates to cast their votes for VP/P. Wonder how it's gonna work here

I kinda wish they were streaming the conventions on Twitch like they did last time. Twitch chat keeps things interesting. But it wouldn't really be the same without the live audience anyway, and it must've been a huge headache for chat moderators. Still, I hope they try it again in four years.

I mean I don't really care about the musical numbers, but who the hell is doing the editing at ABC? Just cut to commercial right in the middle of it

So the first hour is like a pre-show, and the second hour is when all the headliners speak? Is that why the second hour is on all the networks but not the first hour? Am I correct? If so, I think I'm only going to tune in for the second hour each night.

for a virtual con and setting expectations given previous DNC's, this has been a pretty solid start... the messaging has been good thus far

Getting George Floyd's family might as well be the one and done as far as I'm concerned. Jon Stewart is probably right, this is going to be a presidency of dealing with grief, and it needs doing.

it was in a montage/campaign video, it contained like 4 seconds of cops interacitng in a positive manner with protestors/nurses.... the theme of the video was rising up from negativity.

Which is an interesting thing to do considering the "negativity" is due mostly in large to the police force and the support/power it has.

They have already talked extensively about police reform and had panels with black leaders, they have had George Floyd's family on, they have had Eric Garner's mom on. They are on message. That is one still taken from a 4-minute video.

Best not to comment much unless you are watching. It's easy to cherry-pick.
