I've gotten so good at living frugally I might actually quit my (much better paying but soul-sucking) job to take something relaxing at $20/hr or so if a $15/hr minimum wage passed.

Too fuck to drunk


Hillary Rodham Clinton: [while trekking through the Vermont wilderness] Targeting me won't get their money back. I knew the poors wouldn't go down without a fight, but this is different. They crossed the line.

Bernie Sanders: You crossed the line first. You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand.

Hillary Rodham Clinton: The poor aren't complicated, Bernie. Just have to figure out what he's after.

Bernie Sanders: With respect Secretary Clinton, perhaps Mr. Trump is a man that you don't fully understand, either. A long time ago, I was in Burma. My friends and I were working for the local government. They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones. But their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit. So, we went looking for the stones. But in six months, we never met anybody who traded with him. One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine. The bandit had been throwing them away.

Hillary Rodham Clinton: So why steal them?

Bernie Sanders: Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical. They can't be bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

. . .

Hillary Rodham Clinton: [later, in e-mail communication] The bandit, in the forest in Burma, did you catch him?

Bernie Sanders: Yes.

Hillary Rodham Clinton: How?

Bernie Sanders: We burned the forest down. :bernin:

wanna give this guy a swirly so bad

quote:

One more thing was different now. In 2008 the Obama team had found themselves customizing their logo to appeal to different groups: veterans, teachers, the LGBT community. Looking back, some of these graphic adaptations seemed forced to me. With its concentric circles, its curves and gradations, the Obama mark was handsome but complex. It already looked finished. I began thinking about a logo that was the opposite: simple, open-ended, something that would invite participation.

...

Then, within minutes, the social media reviews started coming in. “So what lucky third grader won the Design the Hillary Clinton Campaign Logo contest?” “Hillary’s logo was clearly designed in PowerPoint by a PowerPoint user.” (This is a deep insult for a graphic designer, for reasons not worth explaining.)

...

The country had bigger issues to deal with. Nonetheless, perhaps because I was the only designer in the world who didn’t seem to have a public opinion about it, its authorship soon became common knowledge.

...

As only an obsessive graphic designer would, I noted with satisfaction the placards that greeted Bernie Sanders in Philadelphia the night he rose to call for unity on behalf of the party’s candidate. His graphics had been almost random during his grassroots campaign; that night, Sanders faced a sea of signs bearing his name, not in Clarendon, the closest thing to a standard his team had managed to achieve, but in Unity, the Clinton font.

The grassroots slogan #ImWithHer

I have serious trouble believing that stupid slogan wasn't also designed in secret to be as terrible as possible. There is zero chance it was grassroots - especially since the designer mentions in the same paragraph a hired staff member made it ubiquitous.

quote:

Through it all, I was heartened by the resolve of the team at Clinton campaign headquarters. They were confident in the work and told me they had no intention of abandoning it. [...] As we worked on the campaign, it never occurred to us to be anything less than perfect.

quote:

Then there was Donald Trump. Bad typography; amateurish design; haphazard, inconsistent, downright ugly communications. When the Trump / Pence monogram was mocked for its how-did-they-miss-that salaciousness, their campaign team committed the ultimate act of weakness: they blinked and took it down without comment. [...] And everything was topped off with nothing more than a red hat with a badly kerned, caps-locked slogan.

There we go, the Hillary teams core message: "Double down, especially if it's not working! Being responsive to the public is a sign of weakness!"
