Hate and simple answers. Trump will “fix inflation” and “bring jobs back”, what could be better? Don’t ask how or what it will cost.

In hindsight, democrats had a horrible strategy letting Biden run the second time. Harris didn’t have much time to present a good platform that would have been her own - she was already the VP, so she couldn’t go directly against Biden, no one would have bought that.

I think Israel/Palestine gets too much attention. An average voter wanted to hear the candidate say they’ll fix immigration and their personal finances. Harris was not terribly vocal on either (although I believe she would have done just fine on both). What Harris did was mainly obtaining celebrity endorsements, while Trump got headlines with his (arguably crazy) policies that appealed to the simpletons.

Such a weird rule, but can’t disagree with the supreme court.

I typically listen to these after taking my morning LSD, and do get some psychoactive effects. Strangely the effects are completely different if I take amphetamines or light up the afternoon crack pipe before listening.

Seriously tho, I just started to listen to this for the first time ever, and it does work as a pretty effective and non-intrusive noise blocker. Easy to ignore.

Edit: never mind the second point, the surroundings just got quieter at the same time I started to listen.

I hope it will not be Florida of 2000 election all over again, but in a massive scale.

It’s insane, Gore won by several thousand votes, if not tens of thousands.

Is some make believe hurting a fragile right-wing ego again? I’ll play some sad tunes on my violin, it’s pretty small tho, hope it’s all right.

(seriously tho, I hope you’re trolling)

I don’t think fusion would be as useful a technology as it would have been a few decades ago. Now renewables (wind, solar, hydro) seem like more and more as the clean and cheap energy of the future. The biggest problem of storage is rapidly being solved with batteries springing up everywhere.

The real problem with fusion is that even if it worked, the plants would be very complex and expensive. It would be much cheaper and reliable to build solar, wind and batteries instead.

Having operational fusion reactors would be cool as hell, but it wouldn’t have that much impact on our lives in the end.

The youngsters are downvoting you, but what you’re saying is sad but true. It’s the reason Bernie never ran as an independent, he knew it would hand the victory to republicans on a silver platter.

Well… In that case the downvotes are deserved to be fair.

This is very true. You even got a down vote for saying it.

I honestly found it funny in a kind of a cute way, but I guess others didn’t feel that way. Oh well, such is life sometimes.

Not to be a dick or anything, but I found it funny that you chose to mention the political career and your opinion of him. Nice touch, but very much irrelevant. Keep up the good work!

No sehän tietysti unohtui, korjattu!

Definitely not getting the appreciation he deserves here. I wonder if people downvoted just because it’s Bezos without watching the video?

There actually already exists an international phonetic alphabet, which can be applied to English as well and is used in teaching English. Here. It would actually be pretty cool to see this used more in writing.

Basically any documentary about climate change. No jump scares, but leaves you with an existential dread that fiction can’t just quite match.

If you say so. However, feel free to be one of those people who discover later in life how their quality of life drastically went up with a bit of jogging or going to the gym. “If I had figured this out younger, I would have …” and so on.

Do you even lift bro?

Seriously though, doing some exercise could fix both of those problems. Kicking extinct fish doesn’t count.

Yes, I thought all magic works like that.

I wish this was possible without the whole god thing. What do you do during prayers etc.? Whenever I’ve attended a baptism or a funeral or some such, all I can think about is how much mana the priest is using when casting the bless on the audience. It gets so awkward.
