Haha, I honestly probably will. But no, it was to accompany a text message.

There are three things with Tester, one good, two bad.

Bad - the demographic shift in Montana has been accelerating during COVID. Some people "Yellowstone". Basically a shitload of conservatives from liberal states have flocked to Montana and brought the vibe WAY down. There also used to be a concept in Montana of "vote for the most Montana-est candidate" that has historically led to state-wide offices other than President to be pretty competitive. Before the current, absolutely horrible R Governor (Gianforte), we had a two term Dem governor. Tester is another example. That trend has all but disappeared over the last few elections as people with no ties to Montana, but strong ties to conservative politics, have moved to the state.

The other negative is this is a presidential election year, so the Trumpers might be more motivated to vote.

The one boon Tester has going for him right now is that there is an abortion referendum on the ballot. As we've seen in a few other states, having a yes/no option to protect women's reproductive freedom has been bringing out the votes for democrats. Montana is a small state (~1.2 million people) so it doesn't take much to swing a race one way or the other.

It's pretty sad too because Sheehy and Gianforte are basically incredibly unlikeable. Absolutely vile pieces of trash, and they'll probably win anyway.

No one ever mentions this movie but my favorite movie is The Fountain, with Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.

It's basically a love story set in three timelines, with absolutely amazing music, dark storytelling, and an unbelievably satisfying ending. A lot of it is left up to interpretation but it's not overly complicated. Cemented me as a huge fan of Aronofsky even if he's not always a pop culture favorite.

Can I interest you in any rum?

This is bullshit. The Secretary of State in Montana is a woman. The GOP is both con men AND con women.

Cognitive Decline? Everything Trump Has Ever Said During Political Existence.

Anyone else ever get the feeling Francis is just a bit dumb?

It's the same person making all of the accusations.

Did you even read your own link?

But uh, is Armstrong a Scientologist?

That’s the big question! Armstrong has never publicly identified with the Church of Scientology, though she did attend a gala in 2013.

The "evidence" is that she attended a gala over a decade ago? I'm not saying she's not a scientologist, but a celebrity attending a single event over a decade ago doesn't make them a member of the group.

Thanks for the link! I agree - a few songs there were some notable "slumps" compared to what I would have expected from Chester, but there were also some parts that came across a little better? She has a great voice for the singing parts, and a really respectable scream.

Waiting for the End almost made me cry.

 

As someone who grew up loving Linkin Park, I am hesitantly excited. The single they released is actually pretty good - The Emptiness Machine.

 

A New York appeals court on Monday agreed to hold off collection of former President Donald Trump’s $454 million civil fraud judgment — if he puts up $175 million within 10 days.

If he does, it will stop the clock on collection and prevent the state from seizing his assets while he appeals.

Delay. Delay. Delay.
