i think Clinton should really just have Sam Bee’s team photoshop her and plaster it everywhere. FOOL PROOF WIN STRATEGY!
Goodbye. I have perished from the stupidity of this article. I’ve loved you all.
We have seen our fair share of bad takes this election cycle—we’ve seen the personal essay (ie. “Why the Feminist…
I think that is one of the first things that we need to dispel - the idea that addiction is weakness or lack of effort. We acknowledge that some people or entire families are much more prone to alchoholism, to the point that a Native American friend of mine has never taken a drink of alchohol in his life. This isn’t…
There is a big problem in many areas of the US. If this is true, and Prince’s death can result in anything positive, let’s hope that a serious national conversation about prescription opioid abuse with some new guidelines or laws can come from his death. If this is indeed what he died from, it was so unnecessary,…
I used to have a major dependency on prescription pain pills back when I was working in public policy, and I can absolutely attest to the bender theory. Every single time (and there were many attempts) I decided I would quit I would buy a whole bunch of pills going out with a bang. Being an addict sucks, and being…
with opiods and addiction, it could have been a number of reasons. From my understanding of people about to go into a treatment program, there is a weird assumption or desire to go on a bender. Like you really have to hit rock bottom and enjoy the last ride. With opiods, the side effects of constipation are reportedly…
The two might be related. Knowing that he was to see an addiction doctor the next day may have caused him to take an even greater dose than usual: the fear that arises when we believe that we are to be deprived of something that has become necessary to us.
He has plenty of cash. He’s outraised Hillary for several months in a row, but this is an acknowledgement that to continue to raise money would be in service of a losing effort. It’s a credit to him that he’s stepping back rather than driving fundraising and moving forward, but I’d like to see his rhetoric pivot a bit…
Sanders has consistently outraised Clinton, and has consistently outspent her in re: ads.
So, good-bye, yellow-brick road....
He has a lot of money, he raised almost $45 million in March alone. He had raised over $180 million dollars for his campaign as of March and was still sending out fundraising emails yesterday. So he’s got the money, but he’s got no motive for keeping these offices open, since he knows he won’t be going to the general…
He’s not moving staffers because he doesn’t need a ground game going forward - this is no longer a delegate fight, it’s a message fight, and he can more effectively concentrate his cash in a push to get as much visibility as possible. This makes a lot of sense if he’s abandoning his attempt to get the nomination and…
Pretty sure Bernie has plenty of money:
The Bernie Sanders campaign is reportedly laying off “hundreds” of staffers who were working in states that have…
My favorite point from one of my college courses: a politicians’ job is to win elections. If they do not accomplish that, nothing else matters, they are unemployed
2:33 marathoner, good for a club runner but nowhere near elite. I do the high-fat adaptation from 10 to 3 days out, then eat a higher carb diet for 2 days, and finally on the last day prior I eat very little but drink a lot of Gatorade. After a good poop in the morning I feel pretty light and energetic.
