“We have part of the aircraft missing so we’re going to need to slow down a bit.”

After listening to the audio, and how chill she was during the whole landing, I was expecting her to put in a lunch order for her and the co-pilot.

As someone who lives in the district, I would also point out that Conor Lamb had a pretty clean campaign. The NRCC made hysterical ads that assumed the base are scared, stupid, and have never seen a Law & Order episode (while making actual sheep jokes, I kid you not). Lamb’s ads focused on how people had put money…

He is, in other words, the kind of middling Democrat the party’s base is begging it to move away from.

HAH! You’re funny. I work at a company that has medical insurance. I’m sorry if you don’t and I sincerely hope that you have access to that at some point. If you want me to feel bad about it... nah.

Amen. I voted for the extra tax here in San Diego, which is 5% and slated to increase to 8% in a few years, in addition to the 15% excise tax that CA pays. So, weed here is taxed 20-23%. Yesterday, I wanted to *ahem* help our local economy so picked up a 3/8 of an ounce of flowers for about $150, and paid close $30 in…

Not sure why the Dem’s don’t jump all over this. If the Dem’s come out as the pro-marijuana party, at least for those states that vote for this, I really think they would get the youth vote. And isn’t that what they need? To energize those damn youths to get up off their asses to vote? Promising them legal weed seems…

I love that the party of “states rights” are against it when the states approve something they don’t like (Gay Marriage/Weed/ect.)

Smile smugly when they complain, and then say quietly, “Well, you punched this train ticket in November —now you have to ride it.”

“Your platitudes and ideological purity mean nothing to the people who actually make the laws you have to live by”

Elections, consequences, blah blah blah. Vote 2018, vote 2020, vote 2022, vote 2024. Vote responsibly. Your platitudes and ideological purity mean nothing to the people who are actually making the laws you have to live by, and the past year should be more than enough evidence of that. Vote like a responsible grown up.…

I’ve seen three different Trump voters post despairing, ‘whatwegonnadonow?’ messages already, and it’s not even 1pm on the West Coast.

*pushes glasses up nose* Erm, I think you mean ‘whence’. Whither= where+to. Whence=where+from. I was expecting this to be about him having mysteriously disappeared from the show for Hollywood intrigue reasons or something.

Right before I turned 21 I moved to a new city, transferred colleges, and got an apartment by myself. I picked a place out on the third story of a rambling old Victorian mansion - a modest studio with white metal cabinets from the 1950's and a rusted fire escape which always gave me bad feelings. It was metal, and…

I’m a little scared this will dox me, but oh well. I’ve been meaning to post this story for years, but I always lose the nerve around Halloween. I generally don’t like thinking too much about it.
