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.

It's rumored that TFG is looking to replace Vance.
Given how fond he is of Putin, Vance should avoid stairwells and open windows.
"Harris Leads In New Survey After Biden Drops Out."
NEW Reuters/Ipsos poll:
TWO-WAY
Kamala Harris 44%
Donald Trump 42%
THREE-WAY
Kamala Harris 42%
Donald Trump 38%
RFK Jr. 8%
Democrats are in array.
Republicans are regrouping.
@obeto@mas.to
I just call 45 "TFG".
It started as "the former guy"
morphed into "that f**king guy"
morphed again into "that fascist guy"
Now it can mean any or all of them, depending on context.
What To Do When People Post Good News or Something Positive:

Scroll past and do nothing
Literally nothing else!!!
We all know life is hard, and plenty of other bad things exist. Allow people to enjoy their moments not suffocated by fear and anxiety. Hope is important, stop shaming them for it.
Odd that a true black woman would have a white guy as an avatar and name her account "Joey Mannarino", isn't it?
Hey folks, Iβm on a new instance using GotoSocial and having issues migrating from my other instance.
Would you mind sharing this post so I can federate and regain connections? Thanks!

re: uspol, being pragmatic
I object! Changing Trump's mind would mean he has a mind. Assumes facts not in evidence.
uspol, being pragmatic
Whatever your political goals are, who's more likely to be able to be swayed in your direction, Trump or Harris? What are the odds?
For anything I care about, the odds of me doing anything to change Trump's mind is zero. For Harris, it's a small, but non-zero value. Mystery third option is unknown, but unlikely to be meaningfully greater than with Harris.
So I've got either:
1) 50% chance of having no influence
2) 50% chance of having a marginal influence
3) ?????
Brats have more girth.
Ok Iβll ask. Whatβs up with brat summer?
Does gen z love sausages that much?
If I'm nervous I interweave my fingers together - that pretty effectively stops them from twitching.
So many mainstream media folks seem disappointed today.
They thought Democrats would be in chaos, with a brokered convention.
Instead, we have instantly UNITED around Kamala Harris.
THAT is your story. Run it.
Maybe report the news rather than trying to manipulate it.
@ScottSoCal @therobburgessshow And our new word for them is "Didn't hire."
I'm realizing a communication accommodation can be the ability to edit your posts
Verbiage flies out of my mouth or from my fingers half-formed a lot of the time and I will edit stuff several times after to adequately convey my thought
In real life this just results in folks dismissing what I'm saying or endlessly debating or correcting me because I can't go back and edit what I verbally told them, because I was either missing critical details or misconveyed a point
(Case in point, I've edited this post 3 times so far)
Another step in my journey of eliminating sexism in my speech, and something I've done since she became VP.
But I'll happily call her MADAM President.
I am voting for Harris. I will do everything I'm able to do to get her elected.
Please don't shove "prosecutor is good, actually" down our throats. For my part, I'll hold off on the "cop" rhetoric.
She's accomplished and progressive on lots of stuff. Let's focus on that.
I'm hoping the timing was all on purpose.
I mean, it works, either way, but I'd love to believe it was deliberate.
This Atlantic piece actually highlights how Biden dropping out when he did is perfect timing. By doing so almost immediately after the RNC, in the middle of a long weekend (a move designed to screw over the pundit class), he murdered the GOPβs momentum overnight and left them stuck with a VP candidate who wonβt do anything outside of Trumpβs base. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/07/trump-campaign-biden-dropping-out/679183/
Their new n-word is "DEI hire". They apply it to everyone who isn't a cis white straight male.
