I think I need Moo Deng to help me because I'm having trouble getting a mail-in ballot sent to me. I became a naturalized citizen ~2 years ago and I'm registered to vote, and I can log in to the state website where it shows that I'm registered to vote, but when I go to request a mail-in ballot it just blanks like I don't exist in the system. Not sure what the deal is, I have a long and complicated foreign-sounding name though so maybe someone misspelled it when they did data entry, wouldn't be the first time.

All the Chinese girls renamed themselves, some took normal names like Emma, or Jaqueline, others more unique names like Yolonda, or Estrella, but quite a few names themselves random objects or male names, like Echo, Bench, Alan, and Stephen. At first I thought the super weird names were them just trying to get close to an English word since some of the girls had fairly similar given names to their chosen American names (Han to Hannah, Jingwin yo Jaqueline), but no they were completely random. The Indian girls didn’t give a gently caress and kept their given names and would kindly tell you you’re an idiot if you couldn’t pronounce it.

I would love it if the western world got back to naming people after common things and activities instead of acting like names have to be unique words that can't mean anything else. We've been ripping off Roman names for thousands of years with increasingly weird accents on them and then you go look up the source material and it's like, oh, the dictatorship of 221BCE was held by General Fifth Biggest Bean, also known as "Pokey" for short shame on an IGA fucked around with this message at 01:26 on Oct 8, 2024 |

There's always anglo-saxon last names. At my office, we sometimes hire the services of two subcontractors, both named Tim*. One is an artist. The other has a specific type of assembly machine for the devices the Hardware team makes. *name changed to protect the innocent I don't know their last names, but I have caught myself referring to them as "Tim Assembly-Machine" and "Tim The Artist" in casual workday conversation.

The election is just around the corner, but that imminence hasn't really set in yet... I guess it's a good thing that I'm not super anxious about it, just surprising as, intellectually, I recognize the dire consequences of Trump returning to office and the apparent even odds of it. But his campaign has been so bumbling that I think the prospect just doesn't feel real to me. Which itself does trigger some light anxiety because that's exactly where I was in 2016 and we all saw how that turned out. At least Kamala isn't Hillary.

Cugel the Clever posted:The election is just around the corner, but that imminence hasn't really set in yet... It's been a crazy, compacted campaign season because Biden dropped out on July 21st, less than three months ago. Most presidential campaigns are like a year long! Also, in terms of the polling, things are wackier than they seem: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/06/upshot/polling-methods-election.html A non-paywalled recap: most pollsters, including good ones, are weighting based on recalled vote history. That's been bad historically, as people are more likely to say they voted for the winner, even if they didn't (or they forgot). So you could have an accurate Biden +4 representative sample that reported as Biden +10 when you got them on the phone, because Voters, leading to the pollster shifting that sample to Biden +4. The pollsters are kinda throwing up their hands because they don't think they're correct weighting on recalled vote history, but they haven't found anything better yet. So, polls can't really tell us poo poo unless they're like consistently +10 in a direction.

Donnie was in Detroit (and poo poo all over it), so naturally he yammered on about the Man Of The Year thing again: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/10/us/politics/trump-man-of-year.html Trump Says He Was ‘Man of the Year.’ His Source Says It Isn’t True. Fact-checkers have found no evidence over the years that former President Donald J. Trump once received the honor in Michigan. quote:“This was long before — many years before I ran for president, maybe 18 or 20 years ago,” Mr. Trump told the Detroit audience, referring to the supposed man-of-the-year honor. In response to the Times story, he said that he had instructed his staff to find proof that he really did win the long-ago award. “It was like 19 years ago. It was a long time. But I was honored. And guess what? They found it. I was.” I say again that if he wins, it won't be because of his campaigning. Zero-to-negative votes won by this kind of thing again. https://x.com/ddale8/status/1844527780777820490?t=dGmVUDl7COFfOwWPurfa7g&s=19 facialimpediment fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Oct 10, 2024 |
