oh this is just wholesome as gently caress

Ardern says she did a little dance when it was announced there were no active cases of Covid-19.
Neve - her daughter - was surprised by the dance, not knowing what it was about, she says.
Saint Bloomfield says he's a bad dancer, but allowed himself a "broad smile".

Sucks all of those are fake, but they're great morale boosters for people on Twitter. Trolling lovely hashtags while reporting bots has been a therapeutic work from home hobby.



In more Twitter news, K-pop group BTS donated $1m to BLM

This is big because:

They didn't announce it, it was a mag who found out. Breaking ranks with what management approves is a big no-no.

K-pop has and does have a problematic relationship with black culture.

The K-pop Stans collectively raised another million in 1 on their own accord, in ONE DAY.

I mean for gently caress's sake the way you clean up the extra length of banding after punching the rivet is to just grab a pair or pliers and tear it off like tape they have NO shear strength those are made entirely for compression loads

A former marine protested in dress uniform outside of the Utah state capitol for several hours. In 90+ degree weather. At one point he stood in place for so long that his shoes started melting into the pavement.

But state polling also looks pretty good for Biden. And at some point, a big enough lead in the national polling will inevitably lead to a win in the electoral college as well.

https://twitter.com/Nate_Cohn/status/1269938630736384000?s=19

The Electoral College effect is overwhelmed by a few percentage points - states move together, rather than separately. For instance, Biden wouldn't win Michigan by 5 and lose Wisconsin. The 2016 election, a 2% popular vote win for Clinton, was so close that PA/MI/WI were decided by only 80k votes, combined.

Also, Biden has a gazillion paths outside of the 2016 results - Arizona and North Carolina, for instance. Biden likely has PA and MI locked, so he really just needs one of the states between WI, AZ, FL, or NC. I don't see Trump winning anything he didn't in 2016.
