I get debilitating migraines that require ER trips but there’s always some asshole without any empathy who thinks you’re just nursing a hangover.

They’re sizing up the national labs too. THIS IS WHERE I GET ALL OF THE DATA TO DO MY JOB!!!

Mercy! For someone so against lecturing others, you sure do seem to didactically embrace it!

Agreed. I mean, it was Jeunet to a tee!

Yeah, no. As a huge fan of the Alien universe, I had seen every single trailer and teaser for Prometheus before it came out. I saw it opening night in a major city (snuck out of work early to make a late afternoon showing) without having read any reviews because I trust my own judgment and I wanted to see it cold. I

Facts! Stop, they’re blinding me!

We’re probably both on the same side. You are spreading disinformation and you are doing it with an angry edge. I provided a counter-argument. Take it or leave it.

I feel like we probably have some friends in common. I work in renewable energy. Used to work on climate policy. Lots of friends and colleagues in the development sector.

Why are you so opposed to electoral math?

Agreed - I think people thinking that their state was “safe” may have led to some staying home or some third party votes.

I heard from numerous Johnson supporters who refused outright to support HRC. The common message was that they’d either vote Johnson, write in something for fun, or not vote at all. They wouldn’t vote for DJT but they were rather united in their view that they just “couldn’t bring” themselves to vote for HRC. They

Agreed - we really do want the same things. We will continue to differ on how to prioritize those things and how to get there, but we’re on the same path.

Nothing I’ve heard from Johnson supporters suggests that ANY of them were going to go for Hillary.

Why are you still clinging to this stereotyping, reductive narrative that Bernie supporters are the anti-christ enemy. Do you actually want to get anything fucking done around here or do you want to keep lashing out with self-righteousness? We have more in common with one another than either of those rich assholes who

I took a very good deal of it and my message was always, “Yes, I have reservations about her. And yes, they’re well-researched. I trust that you have done your homework, so please trust that I have too. That said, I’m not suffering from a traumatic brain injury and will of course vote for her. But I am not energized

There are a number of us who can point to a lot of examples of both Bill and Hillary as pretty staunch neoliberals and think that the DNC’s behavior has been harmful to the party. I voted for HRC, but I’d still like to see the party do the hard, needful thing and look inward at what the hell went wrong rather than

I would argue that the pull to the center is what has caused Democrats to lose their way.

Nope. Hillary would have won MI and WI if she got all the Stein voters. But she still wouldn’t be at 270. To do that, she’d need PA and FL and the Stein voters in those states wouldn’t have gotten her over the line. Your analysis is predicated on the idea that some of those Johnson voters would have broken for HRC and

Make no mistake, there were just as many gross slurs hurled by HRC supporters in the primary and, smugly enough, after the primaries. Nobody here is innocent.

You may have been inviting and logical, but I can assure you that many of your colleagues were not. I caucused for Bernie in the primaries and voted for HRC in the general. However, with even lukewarm support for HRC, predicated on her policy positions directly related to my area of professional focus, I was
