Saddest thing is nobody is going to watch this who hasn't already decided.

The people who voted for him in the last two elections, who would gladly lick the diaper leakage dribbling down his leg off his lifted loafers, will not watch this. They will watch the clips of Fox News sycophants highlighting the two or three gotcha lines and declare him the victor, regardless of his performance.

People on the fence will tune it out, as they have everything else, because they are absolute fucking morons who don't give a shit about anything outside their own sight line.

Harris supporters will confirm that she is a competent orator and debater who won against a gibbering human suitcase full of soiled laundry, and nothing will change.

Acting like a confused old person in the least helpful ways possible is always fun. I would sometimes do this with telemarketers who called. I'd adopt a doddering old woman persona, who would say "ehh?" and ask them to repeat things over and over again, and when they asked her for information I'd go "let me look for that", put the phone down, and then go make a bunch of loud noise as if I fell down.

It's also a hell of a lot more convenient to fill out a ballot at your kitchen table. You can look up all those downballot no-names you have never heard of.

Its definitely a case of "um, yeah, your application to ever join the Federation has been denied, pending you not having incredibly stupid laws".

So a while back, the smoke alarm in the kid's room directly below mine started going off for no apparent reason at 3 AM. Got up, went downstairs to silence it, checked everything in the house, smelled for smoke, looked at all the outlets, etc. Dug through drawers to find a new 9V battery and figured it was either a battery issue or a literal bug set it off. Never really got back to restful sleep after that, and the next day I kept worrying I had missed something and a shorted wire was quietly smoldering away in the wall somewhere.

Next night, around the same time, I was again jolted out of sleep by a loud beep, but by the time I had gotten downstairs, there was no alarm going off, just my ears ringing. Asked everyone else if they heard an alarm, they said no. I must've hallucinated it, but I was also experiencing the most intense tinitus I have ever had. I don't usually get tinitus at all, but my ears were ringing so loudly I couldn't get back to sleep for a half hour afterwards.

I believe I had a major psychosomatic event, which manifested tinitus. It's either that or the timing of the random tinitus that woke me up was a bizarre coincidence.

Funny, but pretty rude for such an obnoxiously large vehicle. Like hell I'm not going to pass that bloody mumak.

Has crime actually gone down, or have homicide rates gone down? Malcolm Gladwell did a great series on his podcast recently that points out that when trauma centers save more lives of GSW victims, the homicide rates go down simply because not as many people die -even though there are just as many bullets hitting humans.

Reality is woke. Defund reality.

Shax could have just told him about the built-in filters on the windows, but he secretly wanted someone to hear his holodeck "adventures" with T'Ana. It was a cry for help.
