Holy SHIT that got me. Well done.

All this, ‘Just step down, and we’ll figure something out later” shit is ridiculous.

I have no real metrics on this, but around here in 2015-16 (kinja sites in general, the discourse was everywhere)? Among some folks, it was a badge of honor to vote Stein. In swing states. As in “Yes, I know what I’m doing, and I do not care what results, it’s not *my* problem.”

But honestly I think the Dems were waiting for another Obama to suddenly appear and be able to run in 2020, that didn’t happen and they were left holding the bag with the most popular Democrat being yet another Boomer. In the time since then they still haven’t gotten a single bit of their shit together.

“What is the DEAL with being clocked in the fucking FAAAA-CE?”

They shouldn’t. But they did, and do. All one can do is not subsidize it or give it eyeballs.

I like Matheson, but the Faks are the definition of “small doses.” They way they were used made me think the creators were angling for a spinoff.

I refer you again to “legitimately no other sitting politician would’ve handled markedly differently.” If you’d like to deny geopolitical reality, and deny that doing what you say absolutely *would* have been a lay-up for the Trump camp, not sure what to tell you. 

Yep. It’s...not terribly novel, no!

Well, if the polls are to be believed

Eh, whatever. For all that the right wants to whine and wail and rend garments over “wokism” or “cancel culture,” it makes no fucking sense for the left to respond by doing the same dumb shit when a wannabe “edgy” comedian does a stand-up special with jokes of a “wimmin’ be SHOPPIN’” vintage.

C’mon now,m can’t do that! After all, it’s...::checks notes::...”exactly what the opposition has been doing, to devastating effect.”

::sees troll::

But sure, ignore it just like you ignored all the Democrats’ warnings in 2016. I’m sure that’ll turn out fucking great.

I’d go with that. Leaned WAY too hard on celeb cameos, to the detriment of the actual pacing and story.

More or less this. I’m in MA, and we still have solid minuteman energy, so I’ll deal. But I am *not* looking forward to the fallout, *am* looking forward to lobbing a “fuck you” to the whiners who think they want Christian nationalism before finding out they don’t.

J.J. Abrams’ take on Hot Wheels

Dude’s a fucking child.

I know that goes back to your point about how it sucks that the electorate doesn’t care about policy, but that’s where we’re at right now.

Sure, but if we’re going to talk about policy, then I still wouldn’t necessarily choose Biden over other, potential Democratic candidates.
