I’m sorry, but this started like a recipe article and I lost all interest. I don’t care about your life story, I clicked the link to read your opinions, and you spent the first several paragraphs avoiding them.

Definitely not Kamala fucking Harris, the most hated VP in decades. That would be guaranteeing a loss.

Pushing Kamala is one way I see to guarantee a loss. People don’t like Joe, but people fucking HATE Kamala. We would be so fucked if she was the ticket

Interesting, I’m actually the exact opposite. I always start with Google, because it’s usually good enough, but whenever it takes 2-3 tries to get something relevant, I switch to ddg and get it first try.

ineffective local programs to deal with homelessness the nice way.

We don’t actually attempt to deal with homelessness in the nice way here, and we virtually never have. Giving these people housing is seen as a handout instead of what it actually is: a solution that costs less, reduces violence, reduces drug use, is more likely to be accepted, AND has less recidivism - there is literally no drawback, when you consider how much empty real estate there is (another problem we refuse to actually address).

But this is America, we don’t want any of that. We just want prisoners for the for-profit prisons. We want the cruelty against people we see as “lazy.” We want the perceived moral victory of not being one of them.

It’s clearly rage-bait 🙄 congrats, you’re their target demographic

If the only two challengers only got 3% each, then I’m sorry, but there are no challengers.

But that map clearly says 133

If it doesn’t matter, then why are you using it as a talking point?

You’re actively working against your own agenda.

Yes… that’s literally the point? Tariffs both support existing local producers and are an incentive to move production local.

They weren’t meant to be causative, and I stand by both of my statements. Her writing is objectively bad, and it’s a small miracle that she didn’t manage to ruin this series like everything else she’s written. Yes, I know those are strong words, and yes, I do believe them.

DrLupo. I watched him a bunch when he was on twitch, but he got kinda arrogant and negative over the years. Now I watch the people he used to play with before he changed 🤷‍♂️

So no matter how much one hates Rowling (I don’t, she’s done more good than evil by far still), she’s smarter and more decent than most of the humanity. That sucks.

Lol. She lucked into an amazing world that managed to remain a good story despite her writing, not because of it. She’s not an idiot, but literally every other piece of writing she’s ever put out kinda slams the “smarter than most of humanity” line.

Well, that’s stupid.

Our voting system is undemocratic. Until that isn’t the case, I will keep trying to push people away from wasting their votes.

I’ve been waiting for a cancelation since it was announced. Trump agreed to mic muting? lol, okay, sure he did… I’ll believe it when I see it

What? No, this is the same exact discussion… that is literally one of the primary purposes of tariffs: to give an advantage to local producers.

If you think these two candidates are the same, you haven’t put literally any effort into paying attention at all, get out of here with your enlightened centrist bullshit.

Yeah, Biden is mediocre at best, and you’re usually right about the Dem vs GOP race… but this isn’t that, anymore. MAGA is a different beast.

It’s interesting to see Torvalds emerge as a kind of based tech hero.

It’s just that almost everyone else that could do it ended up being fucking ghouls of people.

Torvalds can be… brusque, sure. But he doesn’t support child labor, he doesn’t cheat on his wife, and he isn’t some crazy cult leader waging a war against workers’ rights.
