I see. So the one she was definitely going to lose this time around is still definitely going to be lost, just not by her. That's sad. I was looking forward to missing her.

Wasn't that the "much safer" district she switched to after damn near losing her own district in '22?

Crazy is so good in bed though. You just need an escape plan and a go bag. And wrap that fucker up because you never ever ever want to breed crazy.

We are days away from hearing about the onion on his belt.

Stretching a lead is a sports term. Most commonly in racing. Sports metaphors are common in politics.

One of the differences between the right and the left, you just made me realize, is how we treat heroes.

Kyle murders two protestors and he's a hero. He can fuck it up, but that's all it takes to get there.

If a left leaning person became a hero for rescuing cats out of a house fire, you'd have a hundred reporters digging up dirt about how he cuts in line at Starbucks, or an ex coworker thought his obsession with cute animal butts was a little creepy.

I'm minimizing. People who do good things sometimes have done real shit but I don't want to sidetrack. Point is, the right elevates their heroes while the left humanizes them. It's not just a different playing field, it's a whole other sport.

I deleted 148 mostly political spam emails that I got from Saturday to Tuesday. I'm glad to have donated a few bucks, but fucking Christ. I hear from a dozen people daily (or more) plus "guest solicitors" like half of Hollywood.

Completely agree.

I never buy gas at BP or Exxon. Ever. Smart phone though? That's required for my job.

It's great when his arguments only strengthen my resolve to stand with Democrats in supporting Ukraine.

I tried to screenshot it for you but I was too slow. You get a little green toast that says thanks. I just hope it mostly goes to the dev. I'd rather give through Apple Cash or Ko-fi if half of what I donated just went to Apple or someone.

How is life so cheap. Killed himself over $63k. If I was ever going to do something that catching consequences was going to make me kill myself, it would have to be a hell of a lot more money than that. Maybe at 100x I'd take my chances. Maybe. I just don't understand.

People are so much stupider than I ever thought. And I thought I was a cynic.
