Hopefully the loopholes of executive power that enabled that crackpot plan will be closed up by then…

Yeah I know, a lot to ask for.

It was, infact, not all good there.

From a game theory perspective, a trumper discouraged to vote is worth 1 vote, a flipped Republican vote is worth 2 votes.

So the appeal to the right makes sense if it works, because every vote from that camp is also a negative vote from Trump.

I have the hope that she’ll end up being more progressive after votes are counted.

Partially because she has Walz which is a good sign, but mostly I’m hoping for hopes sake. 🤞

This is dumb, I deeply love it.

Good lord the discourse here is about as well as the man or bear discussions.

Something I notice is how everytime someone makes these kinds of criticisms, the counterarguments turn into a pit of semantics and extropolations. As if the original post was a massive research thesis rather than just women venting frustration over the entitlement and danger they’re subjected to daily.

You gotta look past the specific wording to see the overarching societal themes, emotions, and issues. It’s like those magic eye pictures.

This feels like something an incel would seriously suggest.

When you want to be like Putin so badly you adopt his leadership style:

While watching the debate it was funny watching Trump say she’ll end fracking like that’s a bad thing (though even with green energy, I do admit we’d still need it for plastic).

I joked “next he’ll attack her by saying she’ll drive up green energy” then he literally did. Said she’d return to windmills and dare to use desert land for solar panels, oh the humanity xD.

Thing is Trump made his most ridiculous statements highly memeable.

“They’re eating the dogs!” is gonna live on like “They’re turning the fricken frogs gay!”

That might draw enough of the disinterested crowd to figure out what happened that night.

Or in some cases might crash 8.5 million computers worldwide.

Yes the Crowdstrike crash was caused by going 1 past an array length, caused by a magic number index and a regex mistake, and wasn’t caught because the tests didn’t work.

The whole thing was a compound series of amateur mistakes, but with kernel access at boot time.

The pronunciation of “nowhere girls” is homophonic

I had to carefully reread that…

As a pansexual I feel that Bi and Pan have enough differences to both be justified while the others are micro labels (not invalid, just less useful as labels).

But I recognize I’m drawing that line very conveniently for myself.

Could just say “I’m nobody”, then when they realize just say “I wasn’t answering your question or giving you my name, I’m just nobody”.

God I want someone this competent in office so badly. I’m tired of bad politicians conning the system and “good” politicians just running things on autopilot. I want a leader that understands their government so badly.

This echoes what I’ve been feeling about Kamala’s campaign too. I feel she’ll be great at the job of presidency, but may have to rely on Walz to grease the wheels of congress to actually pass things.

Ah I understand, sorry for being blunt but there’s a lot of people acting in bad faith when they question victim’s actions in abusive situations.

Rule of thumb is once abuse is involved, don’t assume people will react rationally, you may accidentally say something insensitive.

I painstakingly used video transcription searches to figure out where I heard this from and I finally found it!

It was touched on in this video Something’s Hiding Outside This Game… at 52 minutes.

The actual work being talked about is Three Versions of Judas by Jorge Luis Borges.

There’s a fascinating idea that Judas was the one who committed the ultimate sacrifice. That god chose him to be his human incarnate, to truly experience humanity and guilt by committing an ultimate betrayal and becoming the villain of biblical history. All allowing him to finally understand and forgive humanity’s sin, by committing one himself. It follows that this is supposedly maddening knowledge as it breaks the illusion of Christ’s sacrifice.

I’m definitely butchering and ad-libbing the original idea, but I think this makes for a grander story than the traditional “birth myself to sacrifice myself to myself to forgive everyone else” interpretation.

A father-daughter dynamic means he had full control over her formative years and had full ability to groom her.

I highly doubt he was a normal parent for 18 years then suddenly acted creepy and she was just ok with it.

Without speaking to her as a person, it’s certain that if something’s happening it’s the result of grooming, therefore making her an SA victim.

We can recognize that as the tragedy it is and still think she’s a bad person for other reasons, these aren’t mutually exclusive.

I have never needed to haul something before and I’d probably need the backseats more than a pickup.

But I really want that now.
