I will never forgive The New York Times for bringing this to pass. They violated the journalistic norms they claim to uphold in their vindictive campaign against him. They hounded him out of office. They'd best not crow and they'd best not do the same to Kamala Harris. But I have no faith they can restrain themselves. Same to the Post.
I have every confidence that Republicans will do whatever they can to screw things up.
My field is fairly technical, and someone in HR likely knows nothing about any job I'd be qualified for. So it's all down to buzzwords, and a guessing game - which buzzwords might the technical manager have written down and told the HR wonk to look for?
If I've guessed right, I get an interview, or a phone call to get more information. If I've guessed wrong, I get a letter thanking me for wasting both our time, but "we're still exploring our options."

Most people wanting the convicted felon not to run just isn't a story for some reason. Shit like his "black outreach" gets more coverage.
But people are still in denial about the media's role in this mess.
The effects from climate change are harming many populations, but there's one group of animals that is thriving: cephalopods. This is an amazing story about the resilience of octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish. I am ready for octo-world! https://www.mbl.edu/news/what-can-cephalopods-teach-us-about-adapting-climate-change
"Anybody who is telling you that women, who vote in larger numbers than men, are going to just roll over and allow a ghastly political party headed by a serial abuser and convicted rapist to hold power over them isnβt worth listening to about anything ever again." -D. Earl Stephens

Interesting article. I do cry at movies - but *never* when other people are there. I can probably count on one hand the number of people who have ever seen me cry.
I don't know why - it just seems very intimate and vulnerable, and I'll do whatever it takes (including inappropriate jokes) to break the feeling before it can get to that point.
A question, for anyone who wants to answer, about trust.
If someone breaks your trust in a fundamental way, can you "get over it" and trust them again?
I have a situation where I'm being told I need to get over it, and I think I have - I'm no longer angry. But trust them again? Put myself in a situation where I could be hurt by them again? No. I've never done that before, why should I start now?
And is this a me thing, or an autism thing?
