I don't cotton to all these newfangled doodads infesting my folksy, beloved .social ...so just tell me in this thread if you're pro-poll or anti-poll. Thanks.

The argument that I need to choose the fake opposition over the balls-out fascists this one time because of special circumstances is, in fact, an argument I've heard my entire life as a voter. That our circumstances are as bad, or worse, now than they were when I turned 18 makes its own point about the validity of this tactic.

Anyway, good luck & good-bye to you if this is your deal-breaker, but I won't apologize... especially since I'm one of the RW's pet targets.

Kinda' getting into writing out desc. of my art, in case ppl w/visual issues want at least a vague idea of what I'm posting. Sorry if it's dull for every1 else. You can view my pieces *w/o* all the rambling here, though:

Over there, your company will be just an occasional Aunt Joke, + info on some of the picture sources.

I don't make money from this so please don't sic any corporate lawyers on me.

Have a great week, Masto. [raises mug] ☕️ 🥐

Gore was a smug, lazy, cowardly fucking tool wholly dedicated to moving the country Rightward under the guise of cool buzzwords which helped him sell his damn book. He was a well-heeled weasel in the grand tradition of DLC weasels and this is why he lost. Fuck Left-punchers. Fuck the two-party system

I don't care about Mike Gravel per se but I always enjoy seeing some1 Over Yonder winding up the Dem base by bringing up Nader in a positive light. My ex-brethren/sistren are such whiny, badly-educated sheep that they still don't know what the DLC under Clinton-Gore actually did. The weaponized identity game is also as fresh and endearing now as it was 19 years ago. "You horrible White Man no one but a White Man would reject my White Man you're Satan, say I a White man!"

HRC was right all along. America was already great. Please send all your cash. I can't have this key to the good life without 6,100 miles. Thanks.

Friends, I was leafing through one of those frequent-flyer prize catalogs and there's an Electric Lazy Susan S'mores maker in there. I'm a paid pro-Biden centrist now. Sorry.

The word *Sonic* is all over my TL and it's NOT because of another fierce fight about whether or not burritos are sandwiches? Screw you, Internet. I'm goin' back to bed.

Democrats sure do get a charge out of threatening dissenters with a "Handmaid's Tale" world if we all don't get in line for their bullshit. I dunno. Maybe they should shut the fuck up about that until they quit kissing Saudi Arabia's ass and making excuses for gropey scum like Biden.

(Also, Atwood herself publicly defended an abusive crony and smeared his accusers so honestly fuck her rich smug ass, too.)

To call him a "do-nothing" is to sugar-coat the real malevolence he clearly felt for and practiced against actual Leftists. His spying on Occupy and persecution of whistleblowers being two easy examples. Even when people try to evaluate him properly they still fall into the trap of regarding Cap'n. Classy as somehow benign or well-intentioned in some way. But he wasn't. And isn't.

Of course, mr_xeno is only 3 years younger than me, and he fell for that shit, too: rushing at me breathlessly with that first *New Yorker* puff piece about the slimy toad and his warmed- over Reagan homilies. I sat there thinking, "Dude, this isn't a cause for rejoicing. It's the goddamn *New Yorker*. It's a WARNING."

[sigh]

It's so cute whenever people half my age recall how they once expected good things from that pious, money-grubbing windbag Obama.
