How are you helping Democrats win besides voting for them?

What is a better motivator for you to knock on doors for Democrats?

Anybody volunteering for the Senate races?
If so, can you tell me how successful the door knocking is going, whether you guys are getting a lot of volunteers, etc? And which race you are helping? Thanks in advance!

Midnight Club
Watching the Midnight Club which I thought was supposed to be part of the Midnight Mass anthology. But it seems more like a "Haunting" series. Anybody else feel that way?

The more concrete problem is what course of action a US citizen could agitate for to lower the risk. I think probably the best answer is cut off weapons to Ukraine and lean on them to sue for peace now. But if that's the way forward, people should make the case

I think there are also some pretty thorny long term arms control issues around that course, independent of what it would mean for Ukrainians. You don't *really* want to incentive threatening nukes as a means of winning conflicts or annexing territory more broadly.

Chris Hayes "sue for peace" comment:
His whole comment makes him look like much less of an asshole IMHO:

NEW FROM @CBSNewsPoll: House Republicans have a lead. But it keeps shrinking. Their anticipated majority has ticked down for the second straight month to 223 seats in our model estimate. Republicans were at 226 in August and 230 in July.
