It's the impulse control and anxiety & frustration that builds from not giving in to the impulse that's the challenge. That's if you're aware of the issue that if you do give in to the impulse you will likely come off as a dismissive asshole, and probabaly even condescending.

Amateur hour.

Needs to be at least a dozen dogs to really count.

Vance was too young to be VP in 2016 thankfully.

Maybe having legal representation on your campaign that does all the legal work like this is incredibly important instead of relying on an unaffiliated clerk? I expect any candidate I would vote for to be able to navigate electoral process effectively by having a competent team. This is the inverview process, and they're failing at it.

And no, the parties didn't set these rules up. These rules were set up by each state, and each state varies on the rules and requirements.

Seriously. I've been hearing early warning alrms about Project 2025 from media articles for at leat 6+ months now. Same with the election poll rigging shit that I've been seeing "MSM isn't telling you about this MAGA poll rigging!"

Maybe it's because I pay attention? Nah, that can't be it, I have ADHD.

In reality, it's because there's a ton of shit going on and in various stages of completion. Shit that's dire/urgent today gets fed to the top of reporting with the stuff that sucks but doesn't have impact now gets depruotized for later.

That would have been the former CEO. This guy has been around just over a month and actually has an engineering background. We'll see if he's actually effective and values his workforce with how he handles the strike.

Too bad we all don't have a Julie around.

Working all day for a mean little man With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan He's got me runnin' around the office like a dog around a track But when I get back home, you're always there to rub my back

Hey, Julie, look what they're doing to me Tryna trip me up, tryna wear me down Julie, I swear it's so hard to bear it And I'd never make it through without you around No, I'd never make it through without you around

Hey Julie - Fountains of Wayne

Watching Tim Walz get the news in the middle of a live post debate interview that Taylor Swift was endorsing Kamala & him was amazing.

His reaction is so genuine and joyfull. You can tell he's on the verge of happy tears.

Since I know Tim Walz doesn't drink, I'll just invite him over for a friend's & family cookout instead and feed him too much carne asada.

Each state would have to decide for themselves how it works.

And yes, candidates win all the time due to their opposition dropping out, dying, etc etc. But TMK, has never happened with a presidential election.

This seems like a brilliant feature to roll out as they're getting investigated by the DOJ for being a monopoly.

Americans, the last Trump presidency was a fucking disaster on so many fronts that ended with a massive pandemic that the management of was sabatagoted by Trump as president while also championing an insurrection.

How the fuck is anybody undecided at this point? You have to have had your head in a hole for the last 8 years to be undecided today.
