They remain mine despite the abusive relationship, let me tell the worst bit is that I wasn’t at all surprised. Falcons always falcon eventually

I’m voting the same way but more because we need to not have the other administration, we need much more that the current admin but we also do not have the luxury of being picky

My dad back in Georgia called me yesterday because he saw on the weather channel that we hit 90 and he thought that a tad odd. I told him that this is in some ways more brutal than summer in Atlanta because at least all those buildings have industrial central air. I’ve got two portable units running just to keep my bedroom bearable

I’ve preferred Apple Maps for a few years now, Googles used to be top of the game but it’s fallen off while Apple’s have IME improved

I don’t know if you meant to do this but you actually just hit what the biggest cultural problem we as a species are facing, the current hegemonic hierarchy values competition in place of cooperation/collaboration.

This effectively changes nothing for me, I’m no fan of Harris or Biden, but they ain’t fascists

There’s a level of apathy that has been a part of American politics my entire life, the logic is that all politicians do is make promises that they never fulfill and anything said about or by a candidate really doesn’t matter, and it’s treated as an axiom.

Obamas years in office without the Hope and Change we all desperately wanted when he was first elected cemented this in the minds of my millennial peers and it was already pervasive in the older generations.

Not pinning it all on Biden here but his quote from 2020 “nothing will fundamentally change” is very much what i reckon the average American believes. Very few believe anything good or ill could happen here.
