Either way there are really no good results tonight. The next 4 years (probably longer) will be bad.

Tomorrow night is the beginning of a long and tumultuous month.

Are you In a US state with an age verification law? I get the same thing and I think it's due to red gif blocking IP addresses from my state due to these laws.

There were never any locations near me so I've only eaten at Friday's a couple of times in the last 25 years. The food was good and the prices were fair from what I remember. I think this segment of the restaurant industry is just hit really hard by inflation. I'm really surprised there aren't a lot more bankruptcies in this segment.

I'm really worried about the future of the country. I live in deep red Louisiana and all of my family and friends are hardcore Trumpers so I can't discuss any of my concerns. My vote won't matter so all I can do is hold out hope that Harris/Walz can take the swing states.

I tried to watch it earlier this evening. It was brutal. He can't finish a thought. I would love to fact check some of the claims he made but it would be nearly impossible without a room full of analysts.

I'm gonna try to watch this later. I give myself 3 minutes before I give up. Thanks for sharing the link.

Update: I made it about 20 minutes into the "interview" and had to stop. The gish gallop is hard with Trump and there's no way I could listen to it for a full hour.

Kind of like in "The Walking Dead" comics when Carl is telling his children about all of the events of the past?

There are plenty of E-Bibles (pardon my terrible term) available on the Internet for free since many translations are in the public domain. Edit: All of the other stuff is available via webpages, multiple e-book formats, and on webpages. Again, it's all public domain.

I worked at a major public university for 14 years during the late 90s / early 00s. This happens more than people realize.

Recently he is looking confused and lost more often than not.

I live in Louisiana near the location of the unprecedented flood in 2016 that occurred during the Presidential campaign. He made a trip to one of the relief centers, handed out some toys that had been provided by a charity group, shook hands with some emergency and relief workers, then left. After this photo-op, I had to listen to friends and family about how much Trump had done for the relief effort and Obama had done nothing. It was our paper towel moment.
