Shrink turnout and likely hand yet another state supreme court seat to an open conservative.

We do have vote by mail. Anyone, even if they won’t be out of town on election day, can request an absentee ballot, and you’ll receive it with a postage paid envelop to return by election day.

The down-ballot races aren’t primaries. We had a local primary in February. There are important things on the ballot, including a state supreme court seat and some referenda. You can’t blame Bernie for this.

But it’s not an equal-opportunity killer. In Milwaukee County, 81% of our coronavirus deaths are black people. Only 26% of the population is black. That is a STAGGERING disparity in the mortality rate. Milwaukee is one of the few places tracking the demographics of Covid deaths, but this pattern likely exists…

Having a “competitive” primary brings out voters, yes. Unfortunately, in my state, we need it. It’s not just the presidential primary on the ballot. We also have some important referenda and a state supreme court seat on the line. We want democratic voters to give their input on those races.

I feel like most people know what you mean when you refer to a guy as a “Kyle.”

John Delaney is a failed presidential candidate. John Mulaney is the comedian you’re looking for!

UGH. My brother is a nurse and he was fucking enraged when he heard about that. They’re risking their lives and that absolute fucking asshole has the nerve to suggest that they’re selling their PPE?

He also had no trouble hosting his rallies or golfing while under such terribly time consuming...nothing? He wasn’t the one doing the investigation, and lord knows he wasn’t participating in it by providing evidence. If he was even remotely good at his job, he’d have mostly ignored it and focused on his actual…

It can be pretty overwhelming, and I admit that I’m always nervous with such things because I was rejected for adoption once.

With those lengthy rescue applications, you just need to be honest. If you don’t already have relationship with a vet because you don’t currently have a pet, you can say that! They’ll probably have a recommendation for you.

Don’t forget ranting about how the evil Democrats made him do a bad job responding to the pandemic threat because he was too distracted by the impeachment.

Chrome has an extension called “Netflix Party” that is really easy to install and invite people to, if one of your hurdles is working out the technological details.

Grove is taking MUCH longer than 6-8 days. I placed an order on the 13th and it hasn’t even been shipped. When I contacted customer service, they basically said “yup that’s how it is, have a $10 credit for the inconvenience.” Like okay, that’s nice, but I’d really like my toothpaste now. And I had just paid to renew my…

I haven’t been all that enthused about eating either. Can’t say I have no appetite, exactly, because I do feel physical hunger, but I’ll definitely ignore the hunger all damn day, then finally make the effort to eat at 3 or 4 PM. 

You gotta start making some stuff that yields leftovers! Make the whole box of pasta. Or a full pot of rice. If you chop up some veggies for a salad, chop up a lot, so you can add them to your rice or noodles without having to dirty the cutting board again. Maybe it won’t all be AS good the next day, but at least you…

The thing that gets me incensed is the utter selfishness of all this hoarding. My brother is a nurse and for a good while could not buy TP. He’s already working like 80 hours a week taking care of an ever-increasing number of sick people, he needs every second home to eat and sleep, he does not have time to run around…

When I was 10-12 my parents had to DRAG me out of my room because I’d be in there reading, drawing, listening to CDs, whatever. Kids that age can and SHOULD be able to entertain themselves. It’s a pretty valuable skill to teach, honestly. 

Re: Dog

How you feel about it should, pretty much, depend on how you feel. Is it making you feel anxious, or are you more prone to “sad drunk” than before? (I was warned that it was a possibility when I started Wellbutrin a couple of months ago.)
