Thank you for doing what you do day in and day out despite the bs you have to face just to get work done.

Yeah, but they didn’t run as the VP. They first became President because the POTUS died or, in Nixon’s case, after going through his “wilderness years.” I’m talking about the impact of whether being remembered as the VPOTUS helps you win in your own campaign. Historically it’s not very helpful unless you first become…

I was thinking the same thing. A lot of the other factors mentioned in the post don’t really correlate with the consistent increase in suicides since 1999. The economy went up, then down...guns also remained readily accessible before ‘99...but suicide rates consistently go up. I imagine that in addition to social…

They didn’t run before they became president did they?

Farewell sweet Prince...

Prince is dead. Long live Prince. :(

My bad. I meant to say “running and winning” as VPOTUS runs don’t do so well.

Oops, I mean to say the last VPOTUS running and winning for the highest office was Bush ‘41.

Apparently some poor individual tweets out the original thoughts until 7pm when the master takes up the helm himself.

Since I want a Warren presidency one day, I hope she doesn’t become VPOTUS. George H.W. Bush was the last VPOTUS to shed the “V” by running for the highest office. Before then, it was that hobbit Martin Van Buren back in 1837. Historically, it’s much more likely for VPOTUS to enter the Oval Office after the death of…

Should I stockpile Jacksons and sell them to racists at a profit, which I’ll turn around to give to non-profits serving minority women?

What if their souls were pizza?

Hey to what degree is autonomy going to be part of this package? I imagine it’ll be hard for a drone pilot to control every unit in a swarm, but will the swarm itself come under human control? Or is the whole swarm on its own?

it was hilarious to see Trump lose delegates bc his campaign team of naked mole rats* could not be bothered to look up rules on delegate allocation in each state. will kinda be sad if Manafort starts to move the campaign in a more professional direction (i hear he’s pushing for more policy-heavy content), not only bc…

*At least in the United States.

Wow, the comment trolls have arrived early on this post...flag, flag, flag...

They’re delicious, like challah.

Best take on the Dem primaries I’ve read, really. More nuanced than a slew of outlets that only ever write about U.S. politics.
