Troublingly, the electorate rather resembles the coverage: highly partisan or just moronic.

That 1995 thing was a huge fucking deal at the time. It came out that shit like that happened before more than once and the army protected the perpetrators. But that particular potato was just too fucking hot and those fuckers did time in a Japanese prison.
Might’ve been the incident that made me realize the rest of the world might not think we are big damn heroes.
My ring used to do that shit. I stopped using it for like a year. Then I was bitching about it and someone said they just got one and it worked great. So I tried it again out of spite to show what a piece of shit it was and now it works within a couple of seconds. shrug
I didn’t say he did. I agree. Just trying to set expectations.
Some people are going to be offended unless you participate in their games. In the army I had someone tell me he was going to punch me if I didn’t drink at a get together. So I drank. I probably would’ve anyway, but he was super weird about it.
Redirect conversation, be noncommittal, let yourself get pulled away by duties, etc. Eventually if you’re lucky you just won’t be in the clique any more. But they’re never going to understand what you’re telling them without offense because they just don’t want to. There is no polite, easy way to do this that isn’t going to upset them. They will feel like you think you’re better than them.
They voted to give him all that money again after a judge tried to save them. I don’t even understand. No one is worth that kind of money.
I was thinking a Pinto.
Punk indicates rebellion against the status quo as part of the theme. If that isn’t part of it, then IMO it has no place in the name.
I had multiple interviews with a company and was told they went so well they stopped interviewing other candidates. The interviews did go quite well. Then they hired internally.
It was a bullshit short term contract anyway, but that’s the best interview I’ve had in 3 months of searching. I don’t know if that counts as a “fake” job, but it was a huge waste of everyone’s time.
I think there is a lot this fails to capture because certain things are unprecedented. Michigan’s GOP is in utter disarray and it isn’t the only one. And overturning Roe v Wade has energized the left and disillusioned whatever center remains.
Now these facts are baked into the polling already, so obviously that’s a big concern, but I believe this means polling is too far right across the board. I think who makes up likely voters has shifted. RvW drew in younger voters and I think now that they are engaged they will remain so.
Time will tell. I’ve seen far less Trump support this year than I did in 2020, which yeah is anecdotal, but I think it’s an indicator. Of course, even if I’m correct, Michigan isn’t going to carry the election alone, and it looks like the rest of the rust belt is further to the right.
They are venomous but non-lethal unless you have significant health issues already. What a tarantula attack is good at is triggering an involuntary fight or flight response.
The really awful thing is that tarantulas are quite fragile. My great aunt used to own a pet store and she killed one just trying to blow some sand off its belly and it leaped out of her hand and cracked itself open on the floor.
I would note that ads are a source of poor performance, and vectors for infection and compromise of a system through realistic misleading dialogs and outright exploitation of vulnerabilities.
I have had my parents fall victim to viruses and get scammed out of money due to advertisements on purportedly legitimate websites.
If a website doesn’t work due to an ad blocker, my parents don’t need to visit it.
Reactionary bullshit conceivably being promoted by the advertisement industry instead of rising organically (though it really only matters when asking whether its a few loud people, or a bunch of AI-generated noise).
I fucked up a lot of potential relationships by being too horny, and a lot of potentially fun hookups by being too serious. But it all worked out in the end.
Admitting you’re a pedo isn’t a good look. Fortunately you don’t matter one bit to me. All your anger, rage, jokes, whatever - none of it is worth anything.
He just needs a good cry and he’ll feel better.
What a douchey way to say something.
Well he specified static website, which rules out WP, but yes. If your host accepts posts (in the generic sense, not necessarily specifically the http verb POST) that raises tons of other questions, that frankly were already well addressed when I made my post.
I suggest creating a nice hermitage, because human stupidity is a constant.
I love America. I’m rather less fond of some of the people in it. The land is beautiful and varied. There is so much space here. And the constitution is really special, I think, though not perfect. The biggest flaw is people haven’t been taking politics seriously and have elected unserious people.
I swore to defend it many years ago. At the time I was a kid just paying lip service to a required oath, swearing to a god I never believed in, but the truth is I do love it and I would fight for it, warts and all.
