the next four years

We really may have just voted for the last time. I'll be thrilled if this only sucks for the next 4 years.

Really though we're fucked for the next 30-40 years based on the Supreme Court alone. Expecting Roberts to retire while Trump can name a younger, more bat-shit replacement. Possibly the same for Thomas and Alito.

I 100% agree except why is it that "Democrats dropped the ball"?

Democrats aren't voting for a fascist. Their politicians are not enabling a fascist. The Democratic voting base hasn't been bamboozled by 30+ years of obvious propaganda pretending to be news.

Christians dropped the ball. Conservative immigrants dropped the ball. Legit news media dropped the ball. Large corporations and wealthy individuals dropped the ball... on purpose.

Democrats work on harm reduction because we don't give them enough votes to make meaningful changes. A 1 or 2 vote margin isn't enough to vote around the moles like Manchin and Sinema.

Whistlin Diesel broke his truck waaaayy sooner than expected because of the uni-body.

May need it to start Wednesday and go through inauguration.

As an office worker I sometimes wonder if welding would have been a better path. Honestly don't know. Depends on the person.

He sort of did that to his own father with the family business.

Do we still say username checks out?

I've always been able to vote within 10 min or less. Must vary a lot by location.

They assert that how people bet, whether on the benign (who will be the next James Bond?) or the consequential (will Israel and Hamas reach a cease-fire before the end of the year?), can help forecast the future. Because there’s money involved, the thinking goes, these prediction markets leverage the collective wisdom of what people actually think will occur, not what they hope will.

DJT stock ticker would like a word.

jk We all know the DJT stock is overvalued because of money laundering and selling access rather than "collective wisdom".

This just makes me respect him more.

Dreamcast was a fantastic console, but it didn't have much success in the US due to poor marketing decisions.

The fact that Waltz recognized its value back then shows good judgement IMO.

A homeless guy slept in public too many times, and the police decided to arrest him.

They handcuffed and chained him then drove fast and slammed the brakes on purpose with him in the back of the van. That broke his neck - paralyzing him from the neck down. Both legs needed to be amputated as well.

For falling asleep in a grass lot...

I was on reddit for 11 or 12 years. Commented several times a day. Voted 100 times or more per day. Left mid June and haven't been back once. Now I do that shit here instead.
