Warren/Harris 2020

No way that duo wins.

Warren/Pete or Harris/Pete.

Is this what the rust belt cares about?

Trump's jackin' it so hard right now.

For real, WHO IS THIS MARIANNE PERSON? HOW DID SHE GET ON THE A PLATFORM AND NOT WARREN?

She's killing it on the Drudge Report "who won the debate?" poll.

Butti getting Christied

Yeah, but this wasn't Rubio being a robotic clown. Butti's answer was as solid as can be. And again, I fucking loathe the idea that the police force must perfectly mirror the ethnic make-up of the community at large, and I hate that an incident like this gets pinned on the fucking mayor.

Coming right up, the technical difficulties portion of our evening!

This is the last week Biden is front runner, right?

Mayo Pete with the great healthcare answer, tho

Oof. Gillibrand awkward as fuck. Rigid, canned interruption. Adios.

Warren is coming off as someone who seems genuinely passionate.

Agreed. She’s the standout, by far. 

I think her response on guns was about as good as we’re gonna get, in terms of not running off every moderate or conservative. 

My takeaways so far:

Warren has been solid. 

All the pandering is pathetic. 

Everyone is forgettable. 

Deblasio distinguished himself as a huge idiot with his interrupting. 

Yiiiiiikes

I’m a liberal and this shit is making me hate liberals. This is so cringe. 

Dems are gonna fuck this up, aren't they?

Edit -

I think Warren/Pete is the right answer.

She's got actual policy ideas, she's a "firebrand" or whatever and will hit back at Trump's schoolyard shit, she's obviously passionate, they're both articulate, he's a veteran, she's a woman, he's gay, one's old, the other's young, etc. etc. Neither one should give the sense that we're being force-fed another tired, careerist politician (Biden). Biden's gonna look like a doddering old man with a checkered past, and will once again only garner the support of people who were gonna vote (D) no matter what. He's not gonna inspire anyone to vote for the first time or switch from Republican to Democrat. With regard to voting outcomes, I think he'd be a lot like Clinton.

I agree with Bill Maher in that Democratic candidates should spend as much time as possible on Fox. Those viewers likely don’t click over to CNN and MSNBC to see the other end of the political spectrum. Their only exposure to Democrats is whatever gets filtered through Hannity, Tucker, and Trump. Rather than take a principled stand against Fox, Dems oughta infiltrate it. 

I camp and hike a bunch, and it's never the thought of encountering a wild animal that scares me.

I'll take a normal bear over a deranged human any day.

Who the hell complains that there aren’t enough photos of women on the walls of a pizzeria?

Nothing and we can't.

 

Well, I suppose that there is to wait on Generation Z who probably aren't as wedded to the concept of firearms ownership as their predecessors.

I feel the same way. Seems like we're on a collision course. Harder and harder to find a hook to hang hope on.

I am in no way excusing the position of the gun lobby or anyone who aligns with it. It is disgusting. Not sure what else we can say about it. Having said that, at some point we need to acknowledge the elephant in the room:

our culture is fucked.

Beyond vague allusions to mental health funding, what can be done? How do we get off this trajectory?

Living alone is how I maintain my mental and emotional fitness.

she sends a second text that was longer than this but can be summed up as, "So I was gonna talk about this tomorrow, but I don't see that there's the spark for this becoming something more serious." 

 

Talk about whiplash.

Hate to drop pop psychology on you in a trying time, but this article has helped steer me through some rocky moments in my relationship history.

When it's the right person, it won't be this hard.

If she doesn't feel "fuck yes" for you very soon, I say rip this band-aid off and quit wasting time with someone who isn't going to end up being The Real Thing.

I pushed the decaying husk of a doomed relationship forward for a year or more, trying to convince both of us that it would work. Wish someone had slapped me in the face before I wasted all that time. Pull the rip cord, and let time heal the wound. Hit the gym, embrace a hobby, go for a hike, call an old friend. Put one foot in front of the other until you look up and forget what it was you were so upset about. Best of luck, amigo.

Well ain't you of a cheery disposition, y'cocksucker

Please someone tell me they made a mistake and aren't making a movie and instead decided to do 3 more full seasons.

In this thread, as in every Musk thread:

he does something epic instead of EPIC! and everyone shits on his head.
