I'm sure it's only a coincidence that a few days after Putin says Biden "needs to be undermined from the left" to help Trump win, noted Russian agent Jill Stein, who the Kremlin already extensively promoted in 2016 in the successful effort to hurt HRC, and who already endorsed fellow pro-Russian tankie Cornel West, jumps back into the 2024 race as the "Green Party candidate" talking about how "the two-party system has failed us."
For the love of fuck, let's not do this again.

Couldn't stop thinking about Spies Are Forever since seeing it live in London sooo
I figured out what specific time window it's set in!
We know that at the start of the show Cynthia is on the phone with Nixon and refers to him as Vice President
Weeellll thanks to my partner laughing their ass off when I showed them and them then questioning the historical accuracy of the joke, we then looked when/if Richard Nixon ever was Vice president
And he was! Under Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose presidency ran from january 20 1953 - january 20 1961
(This might be common knowledge, but I'm not american so whooo to me for learning something new)
JFK was elected right after, which is in line with the historical accuracy of saf, since at the end of the show, we again see Cynthia at the phone, this time with President Kennedy
Here's a nice chart for better visualisation:
Also! In the first phonecall she has with Nixon, she refers to an election he lost!
(Again very well may be common knowledge, but my non-american ass doesn't know SHIT)
So to my partner: Spies Are Forever is wonderfully historically accurate :)
To everyone else: the play takes place over 5-6 days, so using the 20th of january as point zero, with a margin of ± 6 days, we can say that the main plot of Spies Are Forever takes place sometime between january 14 1961 and january 26 1961!
Tl;dr Spies Are Forever takes place over the course of 5-6 days between January 14 1961 - January 26 1961

Frasier (TV Series)
S9/E10 'Junior Agent' (2001) - Tom McGowan
Most would take Kelsey Grammer here.
But me… it's McGowan all the way.
What?
Smooth chub dad beats hairy daddy almost every time with me.
