But who could possibly win in WEST VIRGINIA of all places that would be an improvement over Manchin? It’s not his fault that the Democrats have such a slim majority that they are in need of every vote. Probably need to focus on flipping other States for more votes.

Manchin got primaried in 2018 and beat his progressive opponent, Paula Jean Swearingen, by 40 points. Manchin is the best you are going to get in West Virginia.
Sinema, OK, you can primary her. Arizona is purple-red. But Manchin? We are stuck with him until he is replaced with a right wing Trumppublican. West Virginia is crazy conservative, and Manchin is the -only- statewide officeholder who is a Democrat. And as much as I hate the man, he usually votes with Biden. He…
The informal setting makes people feel embolden to say whatever the fuck they want. My work has devolved into a hostile pit of resentment against our headquarters in DC. I’ve experienced far more microaggressions being disabled over telework than I have in office. I literally cannot wait for telework to be over so…
then take the leftover pineapple core pieces and slide them into a bottle of vodka or rum.
I don’t even have it in me to be outraged by any of this any more - as you said, we knew this. But the people *cough* rebuffed Piers Morgan *cough* who keep defending this bullsh*t? Their lies do enrage me. The cognitive dissonance that one has to wilfully employ in order to tout, “You may not call them racist, I say…
Billy Wilder was a master. He had a special talent for finding just the right mix of comedy and tragedy. It’s amazing that he directed most of his films in his third language.
Charles Laughton is an absolute delight. There's a bit early on when he tells a friend to pay Elsa Lancaster and politely kick her down the stairs that I still quote to this day. Stellar film.
Arrival at the airport is, to me, a sign that vacation is starting
My takeaway from this article is that we could potentially lose South Dakota this summer, which is honestly pretty exciting news.
America has a few styles of music.
My favourite moment was the Cyprus judge trying to build suspense over who they were going to give their 12 points to, only for the entire arena to say “Greece” in unison. (As regular viewers will know, Cyprus and Greece always give each other top marks.)
The American version will be awful because there’s no real cultural diversity in the United States. Someone from, say, Utah wouldn’t find themselves confused and alienated by music from Rhode Island. Eurovision is great because it’s a window into all these strange countries that feel like alien worlds.
I really didn’t exactly know what the Eurovision contest was until the Will Ferrell movie, but I watched it this year and I was hooked lol. The winners were really good performers. It definitely looks like they can party pretty hard though lol.
Ah, Eurovision. THE reason I uploaded a VPN.
Flying Dorito?
I’m almost 100% sure it was Greg Brady using is ol’ flashlight on the bedsheet gag again. “Saw a UFO? Sure, Jan.”
