  1. Using signatures as proof is such bullshit. I'm 37 and my signature has never been terribly consistent and it's certainly not the same as it was when I registered to vote 19 years ago
  2. My goofus idiot of a state rep cosigned to impeach my governor for the lockdowns, he also posts conspiracies about the Democrats stealing the election from Trump.
  3. I hosted a Jackbox thing for my team at work on Zoom a couple months back and it worked great.
  4. Speaking of right wing conspiracy theories know what I'd forgotten about? Seth Rich Fox News Settles Long-Running Legal Battle With Seth Rich’s Parents; Family Hopes “Media Will Take Genuine Caution In The Future” DEADLINE.COM Fox News has settled with the family of Seth Rich three years after it retracted a story suggesting a conspiracy was behind his death.
  5. I feel like the other candidates mental capacity being questioned has probably been something that's been done since elections have existed in democracies going way back. But now 77% of Trump voters believe he was cheated apparently with the current right wing media nurturing that narrative, that's kicking it up a notch a little past the mudslinging of old.
  6. Things have shifted a little more since then, conspiracy theory has gotten more mainstream and dog whistles are just kind of whistles now.
  7. With how this year is shaking out I feel like we'll get nostalgic for the halcyon days of moderate even headed voices from right wing news like Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham.
  8. Bad news if you want government to bail anything out, the Legislative Branch has the week off and even if they didn't McConnell and the Republicans seem to be holding the line on "skinny" stimulus.
  9. Yeah, state of Ohio has the same curfew. It doesn't apply to grocery stores and bars were already under orders to close at 10:00 anyway so I don't know who it really effects.
  10. A couple of my friends went to high school with the guy who wrote that and they both have very different opinions of him.
  11. It's comforting to know that no matter how bad things get Mitch McConnell doesn't give a fuck.
  12. Ohio has a 10pm curfew starting Thursday for 21 days. Grocery stores and drive throughs are exempted. I'm not sure how much spread there was after dark, the bars had to close early anyway
  13. Every "free speech" upstart social media deal always fills up with Nazis and pedophiles. Everyone else who joins will have an "Are we the baddies?" moment and silently leave
  14. I was going to say, I imagine he's still sore about Esper not deploying active duty and for publicly looking into taking traitor names off Army bases.
  15. The hick Sheriff one county over from me said he wasn't about to enforce our Republican governor's mask mandate if they ever gave it teeth. I've included a picture of the sheriff for reference.
  16. People are social and Zoom happy hours are still you drinking alone staring at a screen. I'm relatively introverted, but working from home and not really seeing people has definitely taken a toll...
  17. I don't know about other states. But here in Ohio we had more strict occupancy limits before that helped along with the masks, they relaxed that, all that's left now is the bars close at 10 and we're racking up 5,000 new cases a day the past week. I'd also say anecdotally that around 1/4 of the people I see at the store these days aren't masking up. But apparently none of that matters because from what I understand a significant source of the spread are small social gatherings at people's homes and I don't think there's anything you can do about that at this point.
