Proxies are effective political attack vectors, see: politician's family like hunter biden, non running candidates like joe biden, talkshow hosts who speak positively about one or the other candidate

This kind of focal shift happens all the time, evidently to pretty decent effect, elon husk making himself the center of the R campaign brings his positive and negative baggage with it.

Side note

Husk isn't a US citizen so this is his peak political influence

Harris has me profoundly optimistic. She's the most qualified candidate I'll have had the chance to vote for in my lifetime.

Walz is fine, I was keen on Buttigieg but I'll happily vote for Walz and let Buttigieg keep his important current position.

My biggest hope is that Kamala will draw out some of the less extreme right leaning women, nobody needs to know that they're voting for the better candidate and God knows women need allies with the ongoing barrage.

This election cycle is not about fear for me, Harris is an easy candidate to vote for!

Ah yeah good call

Looks like somebody hasn't been doing their pondering exercises

They certainly charge enough to pay these people that much, I can't find any concrete numbers but it seems like the consensus is that the ride share company takes between 25% and 75% of the ride profit. What a racket

Common password, people in various places will pretend that the platform will censor your password. For example my password is *******.

This is generally an attempt to steal other users password or generally an attempt to prank the gullible. Your password will not be censored ever.

I'm meeting up with a friend and their SO for a little hiking and brunch at a local breakfast joint. Picking up the vision pro today for work so that's exciting!

I think it's easy to be negative if a person doesn't consider the human reading their anonymous posts, people feel empowered to take out their problems from life in general on random faceless internet strangers.

Where did you see that? I saw an article where they said walls don't work or something today, is that what you're referring to?

Edit, found this:

In the Oval Office on Thursday, Biden made clear that he was moving forward with wall construction grudgingly, in order to comply with funds appropriated by Congress in 2019. He said he had tried and failed to get Congress to redirect the funding it had allocated for wall construction in south Texas. "The money was appropriated for the border wall. I tried to get them to reappropriate, to redirect that money. They didn’t. They wouldn’t. In the meantime, there’s nothing under the law other than they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. I can’t stop that," he said.
