  • It’s amazing how the spoiler effect propaganda from the DNC gets eaten up so easily by voters when a better system of rank choice voting would prevent the thing issue completely.

    If the Democrats actually ran on these issues you stated seriously and were not so spinless they wouldn’t have to try to fight third party candidates from running in court to push subpar empty suit politicians through the finish line.

    Even in their own party, centrist candidate Dean Phillips tried to run against Biden and he had a media blackout and was actively fighting the DNC while the power at be pushed Joe “just a stutter” Biden.

    If Jill Stein is such a threat maybe don’t push the 81 year old incumbent on your base and with no primary to stress test his viability. Then when his brain shorts out during a debate and he drops THEY STILL don’t primary Kamala who’s 2020 run was absolutely destroyed the second people started listening to her word salad no answer bullshit get called out by Tulsi Gabard’s grifter ass.
















  • Oregon, PDX: I’ve noticed a lot of businesses and restaurants closing and a ton more overdoses and emergency vehicles downtown.

    My job specifically relies on business to business interactions and NOBODY wants to be downtown. It’s to the point Ted Wheeler (mayor) is now pleading for people to go back to the office because the commercial realastate bubble is on the verge of hitting and business owners know it.

    We are blindly waking around hoping things go back to the way they were and I see so many delusional takes and wonder where we are going to be next year as a city.


  • It’s honestly what makes conservatives hate people on the left. The smugness that leads people to run back to their tribe and never having the ability to reaccess a believe because the second you do you have people like the poster above ready to do a victory lap and not accept someone that was able to get out of a circular thinking loop.

    It’s on both sides. I’ve had to look at specific believes that in practice didn’t pan out the way I thought and if mentioned it to my friends group they would call me a far right shill or whatever bullshit term is being used right now.

    There is little room for nuance and having a conversation that’s not surface level black and white opens you up for slander at times.


  • Not an expert on this at all but I feel like it’s less of “the human race is going to die out” vs the owner class needs cheap labor and bodies for war to continue infinite growth.

    My running theory is in the United States, Republican’s obsession with abortion is tied to the fact they need poor and broken families to pump out kids for future cheap labor and the prison industrial complex to make a nation function moving forward. That and the gray sunami of a upside down pyramid with not enough young to take care of the older generations (I think Japan and China are experiencing this currently).

    I would have to say Elden Ring. Just walking out to see limgrave and all of it’s glory and the pure joy of a non linear souls like with exploration I’ve never experienced before made this a top 5 best game ever.

    I played it on PlayStation 4 and quite honestly it felt great with the trackpad and the placement of the sticks where I could really feel responsive with my movement in PVP.

    Playing new game is fun but man I would pay to have a brain injury to forget everything about Elden Ring just to experience it for the first time.
