The perennial but especially intense stretch when the DC/NYC elite corridor hums at maximum capacity — think post-election transitions, budget season, or that weird period in September when every think tank drops a paper simultaneously. Acela szn is when the train is booked solid, the Hill is buzzing, and every LinkedIn post is either a hot take or a humble brag about a panel someone just moderated. For those outside the corridor, it's a spectator sport. For those inside, it's just Tuesday.
It's post-election acela szn — my entire feed is people I went to college with posting about their new appointments.
