Yes, we absolutely have to own when we lose, and we have no finer example of this than MAGA on January 6th, 2021 CE. Because fuck me if that wasn’t an inspirational display of accepting the loss of the presidential election to the democrats. Truly a historic moment for decency, courteousness, virtuousness, stoicism, gallantry, and the actual definition of honor among Americans.

Better believe I make my nieces and nephews watch my VHS tape of that day every year on its anniversary.

Absolutely no qualms with your comment, but I'm just curious. You have January 6th on VHS?

It wasn’t easy, that’s for sure. People keep telling me I should “digitize” it to something called an “SD card”, which frankly sounds satanic.

It is.
You've heard the phrase "the devil is in the details"...well what is data if not details?

Took a strange turn there, for sure.
