Spend most of your waking hours acting as a different person for insane amounts of money and the adoration of millions of people you’ve never met. -Yeah, I’m sure that never causes problems.

F, QBASIC was the first logical programming language I learned in high school back in 2004. It was extremely outdated back then but BASIC (in it’s various forms) is hard to beat when it comes to learning the fundamentals.

I don’t see how writing in a name for President instead of voting for Harris has any real bearing on who is in this House of Representatives. I still don’t get what point you’re trying to make here, especially now that you seem to be jumping from one subject to another.

I once bought a custom engraved Zippo that said “Daddy believes in you” at a pawn shop for $15. I bought it for very similar reasons.

I stand corrected, yet this hardly discounts any of my concerns about Biden’s prior level of commitment.

You mean the plans to put it on the same classification level as heroin ketamine and lysergic acid*? A change Biden and the Dem establishment had 4 years to make?

Oh, I’m not quite sure how I didn’t expect this. I’m already familiar with their productions. -Top shelf.

Hmm, it sure is nice to hear someone eloquently put into coherent order the words and ideas that I ruminate on with regularity.

bummer, It doesn’t work for me.

Yeah, I can’t believe they gave up that amazing internet real estate.

Harris and Biden are still currently in office. I’m not sure what kind of point you’re trying to make here.

is it easier to change the minds and view of 11,000,000 people or is it easier to change the minds and views of the handful of people running the Harris campaign?

Unlike Stein, Harris probably would have accepted that endorsement.

We didnt start the fire…

“DNC Leadership would rather lose with a neoliberal candidate than win with a progressive one.”

I think I had this exact revelation during or right after the 2020 primaries and it has deeply impacted my approach to voting ever since.

It’s a bit one-dimensional, but I have no doubt it was a contributing factor.

“We as a country will abandon them to bleed on the battlefield or die in their homes at the hands of invading…”

It’s the American way.

Harrison has reportedly chosen not to seek to stay on as DNC chair but his dismissal of Sanders’s statement provoked anger of its own, including from the reporter and columnist Glenn Greenwald. “You and the corporatist and militarist party you lead just got your ass kicked all up and down the US, because Americans see that you only care about enriching yourselves at the corporate lobbying trough,” Greenwald wrote. “If the humiliation you just suffered doesn’t usher in some humility and self-reflection, nothing will.”

-rarely do I read an article and genuinely think “man, that guy got slammed.” as the rhetoric typically suggests, but wholly hell did Harrison get slammed.

Did none of your classmates point out that Lincoln’s bad luck was terminal?
