Numerous bomb threats made against Trump cabinet nominees
  • Who the fuck is doing this? Do you realize this confirms all the rhetoric they say about us? Was this happening when Biden took office? Don't give me one or two examples, give me a news story like this one.

    You fucks are so full of absolutist rhetoric about the end of the world you can't play the long game. You keep alienating yourself from middle America, believing everything is a "red flag" operation, and closing the door on any HOPE of us winning elections ever again.

    You know who I'm being polarized by? YOU FUCKS!

    I hate Trump, but you helpless whining fucks are killing me. Organize, and stop cheering on the worst of us, or pointing backwards to why we SHOULD HAVE WON, ffs.

  • It looks like it's State laws that govern whether raw milk sales is legal or not. In Colorado, Arkansas, Alabama, DC, Delaware, and many others it's completely illegal.

    What does the federal government have to do with it? It's already illegal to transport it across state lines according to federal law.

  • It's like starting all over from the beginning talking to you.

    Those "facts" are only good for getting ELECTED if they are effectively communicated to the everyday person. Most people DON'T read the Brookings Institution, look up Federal Reserve or Treasury pages, or even read the New York Times. You have to explain those things in layman's terms and tell them what the benefits are to them in plain language.

    You yelling at them (or me) for not being smart is not going to end up with you winning the election. You'll have an excuse. But you'll still lose.

    Either you can find a way to appeal to the common man, or you can continue to have an excuse to lose. And you will continue to lose if you don't change your ways.

    By the way, I'll say it again because you don't seem to have read very far in this thread; I voted for Kamala, I didn't want Trump to win, but I think we deserved to lose because we ran an awful campaign.

  • Why do you suppose sour candies are so popular these days? It wasn't a market when I was a kid.

    Not sure this fits but: Lanolin Nipple Cream instead of petroleum jelly.

    Oh my goodness, it's so much better than petroleum jelly (and it won't degrade latex/rubber). Put it anywhere, you can even eat it, it's safe for nursing babies.

    Other than nipples, it has thousands of uses. I use it under my nose where my CPAP machine rubs me raw. Oh, and it's a great moustache wax too!

    Just try it. I costs a bit more than PJ, but it's like owning the best quality product of it's type. Nobody can buy anything better.

    Thoughts on Writing Serials by Wildbow

    When it comes to modern serial writers, there's not another name that comes to my mind more important than Wildbow. Author of Worm (Parahumans) and other lengthy serials, they are arguably the genesis of current interest in the medium.

    I saw some really crappy books on Amazon purportedly teaching serial fiction, but then I went and found that Wildbow (John Charles McCrae) has a blog and chronicled his working experience.

    Anyhoo, I just started reading it and I thought I'd share here.

    This Unqualified MAGA Addict Might Become Trump’s FBI Director

    I'm trying to go Deadpool here and break the 4th wall.

    1. Are you, in your estimation, intelligent?
    2. Are you wise in the way you apply that intelligence? (interpretation yours)
    3. Do you view yourself as unique and individual, or as a data point on the spectrum of humanity?

    Only the swing states count, the so called "battleground" states. If you live in a Alabama, your state is voting Trump. If you live in Massachusetts, your state is voting Kamala.

    In every swing state, Trump has either closed the gap if he was behind, or broadened the lead if he was ahead.

    I'm not saying it's over, or that there can't be surprises, but it looks like the Democrats have failed to run a campaign that the American public found compelling.

    Saying the public is stupid or racist or whatever doesn't cover it. The bottom line is the Democrats haven't put forth a plan or made a case that they can deal quickly with the problems in America.

    They have made announcements about student loan plans and forgiveness that were blocked, making them look unorganized and ineffective. They lost abortion rights. They never make progress on healthcare or taxes on the wealthy.

    I want to win. I think we should fight surer battles, and avoid battles that will lose. Blaming Republicans for stopping us just makes them seem stronger than us. Let's stop making excuses and go on the offensive. No more, "Well don't vote for HIM, he's so dumb!"

    It's hasn't worked.

    A fun show I hadn't heard of, my kids 7-13 love it, goofy but not laugh-out-loud like Bluey. Very tolerable for adults as well.

    Worth a shot if you're looking for something new for the kids.

    Is it weird that there's no difference between a successful iPhone message to an Android, and a message to an iPhone user who has blocked you.

    When you send a message to someone who has blocked you on iPhone, you get a green bubble. Same as you get when you text an Android user successfully.

    I didn't think that was so hard to understand.

    I'm exhausted. I'll be so glad when the election is over. The constant state of tension, where everything is couched in absolutist "do or die" terms. I can't wait for this election to be over.

    Since we have CRISPR and all the other cool stuff with gene splicing, might we be able to give ourselves gills one day?

    It just seems like it would be a really cool thing to have gills and be able to populate the oceans in the same way we populate the land. We could have houses and shops and vehicles, andgo on walks/swims and just kind of live underwater.

    Start a whole new second species of human here on earth maybe, Who knows?
