I mean I hate him, but I didn't get that from this. To me it sounded like he was suggesting that her newfound supporters know very little about her, that they are fair-weather followers or something. It's easy to imagine that one of his yes-men showed him a clip of a rally where somebody was fumbling for her last name, and he just took that idea and magnified a single example of something into "nobody knows", like he always does.

My partner and I once went as Leon and Matilda for Halloween. I finished off a quart of milk and filled it with pre-mixed negroni cocktai to sneak it into a party as part of my costume. Boy howdy, I was so drunk I was speaking in tongues at the end of the night.

It's called tracking when you refer to the vertical spacing. That's what stands out to me as not so good.

I'm so much more worried about my future kids' access to toxic alpha male shit and fascist propaganda than I am about porn.

I mostly agree with you, but economics is at best a heaping tablespoon of math and a sack of human behavioral psychology. Those guys really only know what's going on 6 months after it happened.

Lol, Edith and Mildred are literally my grandmothers' names. Edith is a badass and just turned 99.

It's also possible to look at this situation and see you as the one who is fixated. Just explain simply what you think happens in November when you refuse to participate in the (albeit shitty) democratic process. We'll wait.

If that version of the future includes some accelerationist fantasy where things get so bad here -- for people of color, LGBTQ, lower and middle class, human rights, wage gap, regulatory capture, &c&c -- that we all have some great awakening and there is a violent uprising... Then I'm sorry to tell you that you're a terrorist.

People here aren't arguing for you to like Biden; most of us don't either. We're asking for you to live in reality.
