I have a hard time watching journalists high five each other over books on WH covering up for Biden. A diversion from their own deep culpability in Trump’s election. False equivalence, normalizing the abnormal, treating Trump as no real danger were the norm, not the exception.

feels like a given that people who work in the shadows would have something to teach us about the shadows. All this insistence on Good and Bad men, it’s like i’m back in sunday school.

*I would say, for anyone at home: "is it too good to be true" is usually a pretty reliable test for misinformation. If tariffs meant other countries have to give us money, why doesn't everyone do it? Are we just the first ones who thought of it? Seems unlikely, right?

You can tell that none of these people actually dig deep into the candidates. They vote based on the various sound bites that are presented to them on social media through an algorithm that has determined what will be most persuasive for their particular personalities.

People can analyze, hypothesize, blame Dems till they are blue in the face. None of it matters. This is the game right here. Misinformation works. Those that believed misinformation voted Trump. Those that believed the truth voted Harris. There is NO candidate that can change this. Republicans have a well oiled propaganda machine that spans all media platforms and we do not. Period.

I’m angry, but oddly it’s a cold anger this time. I want to make something good and beautiful in this cruel and stupid world. I want to plant a tree or bake a loaf of bread — not out of cheerful optimism or even hope, but as a defiant middle finger to all this darkness.

“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Just think, if we all did early voting, we'd know by now!

Happy Halloween. Thanks for everything. You were right about me, and wrong about me in ways that ended up being kind (I really was a little shit). I can read now pretty well - five languages at my best, a few more with some extra help.

The assumption here that it's women's choices that demand examination and justification and not men's is 99% of the answer to the chauvinistic question below
30 Oct 2024
Why have women under 30 become more left-leaning than their male counterparts? Gen Z liberals and conservatives debate: “If you are just your typical male, you are automatically assumed to be sexist or racist by Democrats just for being your typical white male.” “Donald Trump running for president. He said you could do anything, grab ’em by the pussy….I think that deterred women from the Republican Party in general.” WATCH @BenKawaller “Swing States Debate” in Michigan: thefp.pub/3YI7Tik

Holy fuck, man. Things are getting really out of hand. Hate is running rapid in places that used to hold respect.

As a narrator talks about Biden’s “open-border policies,” the ad purports to quote CBS as writing, “Harris vows to keep Biden’s border.” Here’s what CBS actually wrote: “Harris vows to keep Biden's border crackdown: ‘The United States is a sovereign nation.’” cbsnews.com/news/kamala-harr…

You think you are talking about the children my daughter will now never have. But the whole world can see that you are talking about your ex-wife, ex-girlfriend, estranged daughter, or resented mother. It's not a good look. It's not a good way to live.

They named a new elementary school building in Missouri after the janitor at their school. This rocks so much
