NO NO NO NO NO NO! I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS!!
For starters, if you're going to be sending this horseshit out, Far-Left Elite is a title and all three words need to be capitalized. The fact that you underlined and bolded them together tells me that you know this at some level but you didn't even half-rear end it. Insufficient effort for a grade. Correct all errors and resubmit.

If apathetic left-leaners needed anything to motivate them into voting for Joe, it would be the promise of all of these things to come true. :allears:

He convinced them that they will be invincible once they get it and recover from it.
Now Nick Saban has it. What happens of Saban dies? Will the cognitive dissonance ripple cause the whole South to implode upon itself?

I'd just like to once again add in: gently caress you, Ice Cube. The Predator was the 1st CD I owned. That "Platinum Plan" is never happening, and would only become an unfulfilled promise that would give No Child Left Behind chills.

They will (hopefully) have this amazing realization that they've been conned. It will be like the last minute or two of The Usual Suspects when the cop realizes he's been had as Verbal walks out of the building and disappears. I know the movie came out like 25 years ago but still.

Does anyone actually know any real-life undecided voters?
Did saying no to California wildfire disaster declaration and then waffling on it make any difference for anyone? I mean what was that poo poo? Did he realize he was going to lose by millions more votes by doing it? Did he sober up?
And Bitch McConnell and all of a sudden with the “oh we’re going to vote on passing what is probably a terrible version of a relief bill after obstructing for literally months right before the election!” Does anyone actually fall for this idiocy?

We dropped our ballots off tonight into a REAL ballot box tonight. Voted for Biden and for Bye, Don. Oregoons represent cause we’ve known how to vote by mail forever. I think I was in 6th grade last time we had in person voting.

Voting in Oregon is super blessed. It took 10 minutes to fill out the ballot that was mailed to me and dropped it in a box about 5 minutes from my house.

I'm exceptionally lucky to live here and not have to commit a full day to this nonsense.

I urge everyone else to pressure your senators as much as you can to adopt mail in voting.

I felt like the debate was wasted time, but not in the same way other debates are.
I know what Biden was going for when he started ta talk about cocaine possession and disparity in sentences relative to preparation but he walked away from it prematurely. The moderator once again let Turnip walk all over the rules and just bully his way to extra time to attack with no real point let alone proof.

That’s not wrong, it’s called optimistic thinking. It leads to heartbreak.

As much as we can make fun of Kentucky, Oregon bought their horrible KYnect platform and is about to launch the new ONE version in a week. Say goodbye to getting helpful, timely, functional assistance from your TANF/SNAP, Medicaid or DV caseworker, Oregonians.

I knew it was their defective platform but I just learned it was called KYnect today. It made me throw up in my mouth a little. We had to sit through an 8 hour long training that should have taken about 45 minutes. Therefore Oregon is as stupid as, or stupider than Kentucky. We just have more teeth on average, I guess. But probably not many.

I get $1600 a month in unemployment from the state of California, which pays for my half of our rent, and nothing else. Luckily, I have some savings.

I am lucky. If I were on my own, I'd probably be living in my car. USA! USA!

$1600/mo is my mortgage and utilities. Granted it isn’t as exciting as California, but 1450 sq ft on a quarter acre in a fairly chill place.

Only if you’re misinterpreting it.
The cost of living in a lot of places is insane.
A few years ago you could get a 2 bedroom duplex with one bath and a garage in Eugene for around $700/ mo.
These days even here the cost has increased dramatically as there has been an influx of people from CA. After the Paradise fire a considerable number of people moved here and who can blame them?

$3200/ mo for rent not including utilities is an impossible feat for many families let alone single individuals who have been sold the idea that you are not successful in life unless you are a landowner (voting rights and all). But the cost of living is why we never moved back to CA when I was a kid. My cousin still lives in LA and in 2008ish his apartment was around $950/mo. I just checked it on a rental site and it’s $2500/mo now. Dude is an English teacher.

As best I can tell my job in LA doesn’t pay any more than it does in Eugene. It makes me sick that my fellow goons work so hard to keep their heads above water. It’s only going to get harder if turnip is allowed to complete building his Cheetopia.

I agree with Henry Rollins that the US needs to invade ourselves and build housing, schools and hospitals.

We grew up poor, left-leaning.

He spent 18 months watching nothing but fox news and now, 20 years later he still fully believes that Nazis and socialists are the same thing.
