That’s why I like Star Trek.  And the Universal Basic Income.  But 2020 has gotten to me, man.

Me too. However:

“Late-stage capitalism” suggests there will be an end to this never ending horror show of a small number of people profiting off of a large number of people’s misery.

I totally agree and would take it a step further: expand the Supreme Court from 9 seats to 13 and end the filibuster.

What keeps me up at night isn’t Trump (as much as I loathe him).  But the Supreme Court.  And that is a battle that has already been lost due to the underhanded tactics of Mitch McConnell and his ilk.  It doesn’t matter if Biden is president and Dems control both houses of Congress if every piece of legislation they…

And what is the point of engaging someone in a debate who has been so clearly programmed by right-wing media that they would believe a cat is a dog if they heard it on Fox News?

That would strangely make him a martyr.  But you know what?  Fuck it, I can live with him being deified by right-wing idiots along with the confederacy.

It’s 2020 so that tracks.  And if 2020 keeps being 2020 Pence/Ivanka will “win”.  Take note of the quotation marks.

Counterpoint: The sky is actually a hazy gray/brown where I live which is on the west coast (formerly the best coast before being constantly aflame).

Indeed!  What is up with the strange hatred for dogs.  They’re waaaay better than people.

To be honest, I’m kind of glad.  I want a good version of Iron Fist.  And if they can reboot it, I’m all for it.

Who will win the corporate dystopia?  Amazon or Facebook?  Place your bets.

I share your unpopular opinion. Harry Potter was always boring and derivative to me.  When the books were coming out, I preferred Animorphs.

According to 538 Biden has roughly a 3/4 chance of winning and Dems are slightly favored to win the Senate. Of course this was before RBG’s death so who knows how the numbers may change (my guess is that they won’t change all that much - Americans are already entrenched in their positions). However, it doesn’t factor…

Pressure Schumer, Biden, and Harris to commit to adding seats to the Supreme Court and ending the filibuster.  With Dems being the Charlie Brown of political parties, I doubt it will help, but you got to do something.

In a world of people that are inherently combative on the internet (occasionally including myself), you are a breath of fresh air.  I can do well to follow your example (as well as pretty much everyone else).  Thank you for being the one decent person on the internet!  You really made my day.

I prefer the Batwing from Batman Forever.  I know, I know, just shoot me.

They actually work?  They do not freeze up, cause conflicts with other apps, bork up my screen so that it is unreadable.  Stylistically they display much better.

Indeed. He needs to take a look in the mirror are realize that he (and those petty bitches like him) are the reason we are so completely fucked right now.
