I mentioned this in a comment last week and was called a sexist for not supporting women, because I dared to say a Cheney endorsement was bad for Dems.

This has nothing to do with her gender. In fact, I just said 'a Cheney.' Dick Cheney also supported Kamala and that made people want to vote for her even less than Liz did. The fact that Kamala's positions are so far to the right that known war hawk Dick Cheney threw his support behind her is a BAD thing for a lot of left wing voters.

We weren't talking about people who voted for Trump instead of Kamala. We are talking about 15 million people who didn't show up because there was no one running that supported their values.

So some people felt they had no one to vote for.

If a neoliberal party can't win 2 out of 3 elections against a fascist, maybe they should pivot away from neoliberalism.

Right, "did Biden drop out" had a spike as seen in the first picture below. It's hard to tell magnitude. When comparing to another phrase, it's easy to see that the spike wasn't even close to the spike for another election day phrase: 'who is Kamala?'

Jacob is similar. It is derived from an old Hebrew names and there are a ton of variants (including James and Diego)

"Literally don't do it" is a 65 and you have the rest of the grading period to make up or redo any assignment up until the last day. So basically, float through 9 weeks doing nothing, then cram in the easiest assignments after school during the last week to get a passing grade.

This was a suburban school outside of a major city in the Midwest US.

It's been a while since teachers were allowed to give out 0s in highschool. When I taught 12 years ago the lowest I was allowed to give was a 65. Even if nothing was turned in.
