The future is always worth fighting for.

Goddamn, I'm crying now.

[underwaterrhymes]

lol. Donald Trump is definitely unserious. I love that this campaign is reaching across the generational aisle and not just the political one.

[notreal]

40 years ago I was so excited when Geraldine Ferraro walked out on that stage. Adult me is nervous and realistic, but dammit, tonight the little 10 year old in my soul is going to party.

[underwaterrhymes]

The emotion in the audience is palpable.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen any convention this beautiful, inclusive, and joyous before. Am I wrong?

You are not wrong. This is an incredible moment. She has so much momentum. We can do this!!!

[underwaterrhymes]

We trust women.

[Pom]

She is prosecuting yam tits right here in front of millions, dragging and tagging his ass. The Perfect Human at the Perfect Time. Vote 💙

“They are out of their minds”.

I haven’t felt this hopeful since Obama. We can do this.

[mcppalmbeach]

Hitting all the highlights. Seriously how could you not want this?!

[tripleshot]

Not to be a downer, but wasn’t this supposed to be over at 11:00 eastern? I’m tired and have to get up at 6 but I don’t want to miss the end.

[underwaterrhymes]

Glad she is mentioning Palestine and Gaza.

They’ve gone long every night.

—Really tired on the east coast

[erbear]

Wow. She danced that as well as she could have. Good on her for bringing it up at all. I was worried she wouldn’t make a statement.

[tealblue]

I want to go to bed but I feel like Beyonce is going to come out after she’s done speaking. I thought it would be at the end of the video about Kamala before she came on stage but I think it’s next.
I don’t want to miss it!

Definitely balancing on a tightrope.

[icedcoffee]

Hopefully the MAGAs shut the eff up now that she hasn’t told us her policies. She hit them all here.

Same. I was waiting for it.

They won't. They'll pivot in some way that it won't be enough or not enough details or whatever. Fuck them. Forever.

I like listening to her speak, but I'm also in the "it's fucking late" camp

West coast for the win. It's 8:13! 

[tripleshot]

I give up. I’m going to bed.

[icedcoffee]

No Beyoncé or TSwift?

[stuffandthings]

Uh oh. The balloons are falling and it’s giving me Hillary Clinton 2016 flashbacks and now I’m crying. 🫠

No, no! You saw everything that mattered. Beyoncé or Taylor would have been fun, but just the cherry. The sundae was everything else.

The curtain people were just messing with everyone following the speculation. 😄

[Pom]

Wait, she’s not going to talk about important stuff like Hannibal Lector or sharks?

/s

Seriously, that was perfect.

[icedcoffee]

Dammit. I would have been happy with this if not for the speculation. Actually I would have preferred George Bush but figured he wouldn’t be the closing surprise. 😂

LOL, that’s my fault in this thread. I was so sucked into the speculation! But, honestly, it was perfect as it was.
