I'm using "literal" correctly on that one

they were talking about it on the news and saying how it's a year off so it's surprising he'd do it now. but given what he hopes to gain it's entirely predictable and surprising why he didn't do it the moment he could

@TimStone what could he possibly think it means

I can't think of a possible meaning of "diaper bag" where what he said makes sense

3:41 PM

I guess like...a laundry bag...for used diapers?

but

even if they're disposable

@quartata Same

you'd still bring a bag to put them in

Yeah, I don't even know

Can we just accelerate to the future where if someone's breastfeeding on the Senate floor it's no big deal except to that one perv Senator who has to pay their harassment settlements out of pocket?

3:48 PM

@TimStone also why would you have a communal diaper bag? that's not how it works

like if they had a diaper genie in the middle of the room next to a spittoon that makes more sense

🤷

lol y'all, we have a take

I agree with their statements on “decorum.” Not because I have a problem with babies at the workplace, but because I have issues with Duckworth potentially being able to weaponize that baby to affect legislative decision making.
