aspiring PMC and technocrat. 🌋 🌋 🌋 Autocorrect often gets me because I can’t see very well, sorry about that.

Some places have accents they think are perfectly normal but then it turns out they’re the only town in America that calls traffic medians “silly street squiggles”, or something

I didn’t expect him to retire right then either, I meant more if it went bad like the debate, maybe we’d have something to talk about. This didn’t give anybody something to talk about really it sounds like, but it isn’t going to stop the panickers (I dunno if that was doable tonight anyway though)

Yeah I think we’d already know if it was bad enough he was going to drop out but I really would like folks to start moving on whichever way we’re going!!

I asked this person how she’d prevent the candidates from attacking each other so close to the general election as they campaigned against each other and her answer was “the rules would be: they can’t”

When trying to talk to people about this they keep moving back and forth between the arguments, unwilling to state definitively which they mean, it feels kinda dishonest ngl

I’d want these! When my ovary was removed people crowded around it to take pictures of it (for posterity? evidence? to put in a medical journal???) and the doctors swore I could see them someday, and I never!! have!!!

I know nothing about Project Dominion or any plans for Cardassia to join the Dominion. I have never even heard of the Dominion. I disagree with many things the Dominion is saying, and trying to conquer all solids sounds awful to me. I wish them luck in anything they do.

They are not really “a huge deal for the rest of the galaxy” for instance, except for maybe when they joined the Dominion’s side in the war. For Bajorians they’re the main villains sure, but Bajorians aren’t exactly major players

Even he was mocking his chances by the end, he called out a poll that showed him taking an unreasonable portion of the primary vote (like 12% or something)

She’d be ragged on endlessly for having “concealed his mental state” until it was most advantageous for her! Plus the press would be hyper vigilant reporting on all the chaos caused by Biden’s stepping down and how she is failing to control it

Yeah one factor at play in every potential electoral path we can spitball here is there are truly a lot of Anybody But Trump votes out there. Maybe more of them than any other candidate has ever had to deal with!

Yeah to me this statement reads more like “I’ve gotten a lot of demands to address this and I take my constituents seriously; I stand with the party’s decision either way” or whatever. If she really wants him to step down I appreciate she didn’t go about it like an arsonist at least

abigail disney’s staggering hypocrisy here is one of the many ways in which you get reminded that even when astronomically wealthy people pay lip service to equality and progressive politics, they understand that the rules they themselves agree with in theory will not be applicable to them

And how does one even hold a candidate to the “don’t attack other candidates” rule? And what would stop their proxies from doing it and causing the same damage?

Because 2-3 options means that whoever wins will need to endure weeks of costly campaigning on a last minute primary and receiving potentially devastating attacks and bad vibes from their own party immediately before entering the general against Trump. It’s suicide

If you want to move people to your side probably don’t counsel people that they’ll all be on your side eventually once they get over their feelings, and instead acknowledge the risks and logistical problems a candidate change introduces and how you think Democrats could mitigate them

You should not be feeling any relief and joy when Donald Trump is up two to five points! Nothing has happened in the real world that should bring this feeling to you! Why are you even relieved? Because Joe hasn’t stepped down
