Anytime you see the word "woke" or "wokeness" from a conservative, replace it with "kindness".

Yes. Next question, please.

Is the website in the voting booth?

But that just doesn’t happen. We have to plan for the lowest common denominator.

We should also make vote by mail mandatory.

I have no idea what party these people belong to. It's not listed on the sheet. Their policy positions aren't shown. Their endorsements aren't shown. Nobody knows who the fuck any of these people are.

What you need Ranked Choice Voting for is Congress and the Presidency. Local elections also need to be partisan. Otherwise how the fuck do you know where any of the candidates even generally stand on the issues?

Oh really? I’ve always heard about that movie but never seen it or looked up the plot.

It is also similar to Ender’s Game, in a way.

I sincerely hope that the people can reclaim the airwaves and a new fediverse-like ecosystem springs up for over-the-air broadcasts.

I think you're right.

Sounds familiar. Our kids (9 and 7) asked us at dinner the other night what "over the air" meant and what "radio" was. All they know is streaming.

There was also a significant portion of black men who voted Trump because they were misogynists. It's just a fact.

But that's still not discounting the fact that someone with Bernie's message and goals would have won in a landslide.

Responding to this loss with "the only way to win is to be racist" is basically just giving up and saying the fascists are right.

Nobody is saying that.

 
 
 

 
 
 
 

She bought the tickets without knowing about the strike. We accepted the gift without knowing about the strike.

She's a Republican and still wants to go and cross the picket line. She doesn't care.

My wife understands my hesitancy, but says that it's too late, and so we have to go regardless.

The kids are really looking forward to it.

I just feel so horrible. But I have to go with them.

What can I do to make amends?
