Started here in November and can just about see a little toe on one of my Mastodon feet. Just to introduce myself again, I'm a journalist, creative writer and teacher at Goldsmiths, University of London. You might know me as @rashmeerl over on Twitter. Here's my website: https://www.rashmee.com https://twitter.com/rashmeerl #TwitterMigration #journalism #creativewriting #politics #introduction

That smooth, hairless crotch bump wasn't the draw they hoped it would be.
If you drink champagne through a crazy straw, all decorum is void. Drink it warm, drink it cold, doesn't matter.
These days you can just generalize [Mar-a-Lago] to most of Florida, and you're all right.
If you're going to pop out "voting won't stop it" - yeah, you need some evidence. Solid evidence, with a thorough analysis, and covering why those deltas are irrelevant.
FWIW, I don't think they are. We aren't recovering from nationwide destruction after a war. We aren't facing ruinous inflation rates. We do have a Constitution that they have to at least pay lip service to. Very different circumstances. Vote like your life depends on it.
You had a paragraph talking about what happened in Weimar Germany in the 1930s. Different country, different government, different set of rules, different economic climate, different populace, entirely different set of possibilities.
You dump an empirical statement out there, without supporting evidence (we have moved beyond the point where normal means are sufficient because...) and I'm engaging in wishful thinking because I don't accept it.
Sure.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
