I think you should consider a nice herbal or at least decaf. Lol

When it was explicitly stated above that’s what’s under discussion here?

Lots of atheists believe lots of silly unfounded things. They just dismiss the concept of a magical bearded cloud surfer who cares whether you masturbate or eat certain meats on Fridays etc.

Not really, no. Early voting trends only give insights into what early voters are doing and tells little to nothing about the election or potential outcome overall. Don’t get caught up trying to read tea leaves and chicken entrails. We’ll know when we know.

The hint is right there in the word “pure.” Once a constitution puts limits or guardrails or constraints on the vote in any way it’s no longer a “pure” or direct democracy.

It’s exactly the wives of those men to whom this ad is targeted. Exactly. In a rather significant way. Being down this year relative to pandemic panic voting is both unsurprising and expected.

Because they have eyes and ears mostly Seconded

Education and social safety net resources to support those in poverty tend to be a fairly universal good in these scenarios. Violence is more common under financial stress and feelings of hopelessness. That’s on the prevention side, but it’s still going to happen and when it does those being abused need shelters and safe places with food and counselors to take (hide?) themselves and their kids. Again here everything is easier when you’re not dealing with poverty or an inability to flee bc of financial deficits, returning to my previous point around education and well funded social safety nets..

Details matter, but so do orders of magnitude and scale. Yes, I think concern on this topic is a needless anxiety.

Lol 😂

Especially since Trump could also hurt his Amazon and BlueOrigin properties It’s not like Trump voters give a shit about what WaPo says. Lamestream media cries go all the way back to Sarah Palin.

Unless it prevents you from successfully mating with a partner and producing offspring that survive and also reproduce, there's nothing stopping it from carrying forward in the population.

There's significant construction work being done in our neighborhood. Lots of excavators and roads being dug up, new water drain lines buried, etc. Got to speaking with a member of their crew yesterday. Tall muscular guy, mid-40s. Said he's a former Marine. Spent some time in a motorcycle gang. Did tattoo work, even corporate security before moving into large city funded construction projects. Within a few minutes, he'd shared that racism isn't real and is just a media invented narrative, that Hitler didn't hate "the Jews" and was mostly just mad bc they tried taking his gold away from him, that Hitler even had black Nazis controlling things in Africa so "stop believing all the lies," he shared that "the largest slave owners were actually the native americans," and he even started scrolling through photos and social media posts on his phone to show me and prove all of this was real and relevant as he next moved into commenting that "Nixon moving away from the gold standard is what set all of our problems into motion." It's not simple vaccinating against this. I could've knocked down each of those claims one by one, but he'd just Gish Gallop into 20 more that support his preconceptions. Critical thinking diseases in meme'd minds is an extremely real problem.

The "manosphere" seems to apply here, too. It's a prominent grouping mechanism in this current election with toxic tones. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manosphere

They did vote in 2016, just a smaller fraction of them. He's looking to significantly expand the footprint of those doing so this year. Agreed. You're not cynical. You're paying attention.

Masonry bits should be sharpened at 135 degrees.

Harris is clearly making a play for paleo-Republicans and Independent voters. Trump, however, is making a play for voters who normally don't vote, specifically males with misogynistic and racist tendencies. I'm unsure (and uncomfortable) that the middle of the road never-Trumper numbers being sought after by Harris et.al will be enough to counterbalance the "let's burn the whole effing thing down" voters sought after by Trump et.al.

Did it involve essential oils and investments in crypto currencies?

Placebo effect far more likely

Your dreams reflect your conscious brain trying to make sense of unconscious activity and striving to apply a narrative to that makes sense in context of the items you’re thinking about while awake. You’re obviously thinking of physics concepts and sci interfere that’s the frame under which your mind explains your dreams to yourself. Nothing to do with quantum theory tho

Yes, I can. So can google.

Copy pasted newbie. No thx

It's a half truth. Inflation from quantitative easing and "printing money" could lead to inflationary effects. It's just not the root cause of the inflation most people are bitching and moaning about right now. That was due to supply chain shocks globally at the same time that families received rapid unexpected injections of cash to prevent collapse of the system. This would potentially help with inflation since it would remove liquidity from the system (i.e. poor people stop spending money and the reduction in spending would lead to lowering of costs vendors and manufacturers charge), but a far superior weapon is increasing interest rates since it's not regressive and has the benefit of impacting everyone all at once.
