Did you end up eating more pizza than you would otherwise? Also I feel like everything in my apartment would smell like pizza which would get old.

Who else read this in burialgoods’ voice?

Haha, yeah I do it out of fear of restaurant workers and you all should too if you know what’s good for you! Like, they literally have time alone with the food you’re going to eat!

I always tip well, but in this case my love of loud alarms would win out

Wow pretty spot on

The Harris campaign better have more tricks up their sleeves, 50-50 isn’t good enough. More corporate reform to help labor out? Something widely popular that neither campaign is pushing. They aren’t really pushing a charm offensive like they should and are being more self-congratulatory and preaching to the choir.

Minecraft works for me. It’s been a Minecraft week.

I don’t subscribe to the fake attempt for the first one but Trump did appear on the WWE (was it still WWF then?) and he did have Hulk.Hogan at the convention. If anyone knows how to use fake blood or how to cause a scratch that bleeds profusely for the crowd, it’s those guys.

Kid Icarus enters the room…

Feels like increasingly that is the new reality for all of us, everything is a potential attack vector, even if it’s much less lethal attacks. Data grabs, money grabs, attention grabs. Show me something weaponizable that isn’t being exploited as one in one way or another.

To go against the grain here, to me this is his final signal that voters have made their mind up and that he will take his chances on this toss-up of an election. He will pull all his dirty tricks and contest the results, perhaps violently, if he loses. I don’t think he’ll agree to a 2nd debate but Democrats should cajole him all they can to try to force another.

Arguably blackpilled folks are less problematic than incels since they have given up looking and perhaps developed a better attitude toward women (paradoxically) while incels hold a shred of toxic hope that their tradwife will swoop in and save them and that hope eats them alive. Note: I am not a scholar of either community’s worldview

Yeah when you consider who he’s related to and what he’s been through he seems almost well-adjusted. Coulda turned out a lot crazier for sure. I mean they pretty much tried to create an American royal family, look at the results from history in that kind of aggressive human experimentation, could have been a lot worse. Better luck next time, Bene Gesserits.

Bets measure opinion differently, and sometimes more accurately than phone or internet polling. Money talks.

Still the Vance-Walz debate Oct 1 for some potential change for either candidacy. Voters think they know both VP picks but we won’t really know who we’re dealing with til they go head to head.

Polymarket is still showing ~50-49 Harris, less than a point. A tossup.

Despair is also a key party platform. The more hopeless someone is, the more likely they are to invite catastrophic change like Trump promises.

In the US they advertise drugs directly to us, we’re expected to do our own marketing-guided research to speed along the transaction.
