I don't know if it's exhaustion after four years of this stuff but it just doesn't feel like there's an actual Presidential election happening tomorrow. Maybe it's from already voting a few weeks back, or the months of Covid isolation, or the fact that we've still got Trump for another two months regardless of the outcome, it just seems unreal somehow.

I feel the same way. It’s just another saga in a long line of 2020 sagas, from COVID to having federal LEOs terrorizing DC and other cities to COVID again to now. Just another drop in the bucket although this one could be the deluge we’ve been bracing for.

Good luck to everyone today- hope everything stays peaceful wherever you are and that today is the first step toward climbing out of the national nightmare we’ve been enduring. Remember to take breaks from doomscrolling and check in on your friends and family.

That this wasn’t the blowout for Biden has been disturbing. I think that even if he does squeak out a win, and assuming that the Supreme Court isn’t gearing up to gently caress the country sideways, he’s not going to have the mandate to get past how thoroughly the well will be poisoned by Trump and Fox News as they shriek about fraud in the coming days.

I think that a best case scenario still has us in for some rough, polarized and potentially violently contentious times even if Biden wins.

Yep, and we should prosecute folks who broke the law from Trump on down, full stop. But we're going to have to get a big chunk of our fellow citizens that voted for Trump to help fix the problems that exist in our country or they get worse and saying "gently caress em" isn't exactly the best way to start that process.

No, gently caress them. Diehard Trump supporters should crawl back in their holes and learn to love being ostracized.

Well, I did organize a guys white water rafting trip to shoot the class 5s on the Nile with a few MSGs. Although almost all of us got food poisoning at the airport after eating some hamburgers so I had to jump out of the truck as they were dropping us off to puke in the ditch. One of the MSGs had to stand post the next day that poor poor bastard.

TIA. The highlight of my time in Africa was organizing a sunset cruise for a bunch of UN security pros on Lake Victoria outside of Entebbe. Nothing like seeing a former French SF vet and former chief of security for the French embassy in a hosed up country taking shots with the boat’s crew.

Hi, Rookie to conspiracy theory game here.

Is Q a single person? My assumption that Qanon was a collective of people similar to Anonymous.

It’s entirely likely that there have been several Q’s but it’s difficult to discern given how 8chan or 8kun or whatever it’s called today is set up. The “anonymous” moniker comes from how whoever posted the first Q stuff like was an “anon” (again an 8chan feature).

I thought “unfuck the police” sounded better and was easier to explain “defund the police” but I could see how the suburban pearl clutching over the f-word would have been a problem for centrist Dems more than the concept of police accountability would be.

Does Mr. Romney support abortion rights? No. Does he want to aggressively raise the minimum wage, bolster public education, strengthen unions, expand transgender rights and enact progressive tax reform? Probably not. But is he a cartoon thug who did nothing but watch TV while the mob he assembled beat and used Tasers on police officers? No. The choice is between Donald Trump and not-Trump, and the not-Trump candidate needs only one qualification: to win enough votes from a cross section of Americans to close off the former president’s Electoral College path back to power.

Part of the wish fulfillment of “The West Wing” was that oratory can be persuasive. So Barack Obama could come forth at the Democratic convention next month in Chicago and remind us, once again, that we’re not red states and blue states but the United States by full-throatedly endorsing his old rival. And Mr. Romney could make the case that the Democrats are putting country before party in ways that the MAGA movement will not, and announce his bipartisan cabinet picks at the convention as well.

Sorkin his own dick indeed, this reads like his Emmy-seeking fantasies playing out in real time.

Basically today is one of those days when the Internet is Fun Again and the memes are good, at least until people remember that Kopmala dropped out before the first primary was held and all the baggage from late 2019 comes back out. That, and how Joe basically kept her sidelined and working on the least photogenic issues during her time as VP.

It’s good that Biden finally dropped out and I hope Harris beats Trump because JFC otherwise but we aren’t out of the woods yet.

On balance I thought it was a good acceptance speech and I’m happy to see Trump absolutely floundering and hope he continues to crater, but it doesn’t mean anyone has to be all swoony in hearing Kamala make repeated references to law enforcement and her career in law enforcement and our brave law enforcement officers, etc. moving the Democrats further to the right on the border or for what were some really tepid remarks on Israel.

Because my brain is broken, I'm tempted to download and watch it on my flight home this weekend. Worth it or nah?
