There’s an simple way to counter it — get enough people registered to cover all the positions on the ballot. Or register as an independent and get enough support across the entire state. — but that takes two election cycles of support I believe.

For the socialist party, running for president really isn’t the best serious route forward; better route is to put congressional representatives in races where they have a chance of winning. Then they become actual swing votes that can affect policy.

Once enough representatives have been elected, THEN it’s time to consider a presidential candidate.

The real solution is deinvestment. Even a little bit will cause Israel to do more than just talk. Either they’ll scale back the genocide, or they’ll start saying the quiet bits out loud. Either is better than the current situation.

Does someone make a plug that you can stick on a cable that will identify its capabilities? If they don’t, they should.

MS-BASIC was OK IMO, but I preferred AppleSoft BASIC.

For some reason I read “grocery center” and it still fit.

If she pulls off a perfect debate, they’ll criticize her for not being gracious and lady-like. There’s really no way for her to win in front of Trump’s crowd. So what she really needs to do is inspire everyone else to get out and vote, and not offend anyone who was already voting for her.

I survived a PiP - new manager who totally misunderstood the situation. I worked with them to help them understand the context, and still have the job (but not the manager).
