Do endorsements really matter? If so, what target people are they trying to convince?

If Nancy Pelosi says she endorses Joe Biden, I think that the people who like Nancy Pelosi are probably already going to vote for Joe Biden anyway.

If Rush Limbaugh says he endorses President Trump, I think that the people who like Rush Limbaugh are probably already going to vote for President Trump also.

Whose mind are they trying to move????

Best comment: "When are you guys going to start doing satire again?"

I was going to make a comment about that 'whooshing noise high above you' being the point being missed, but I was worried somebody would note that points don't actually make a whooshing noise since they are merely representations of a concept, and I was concerned that in this time of heightened emotions I might then tell them to fuck off.

I believe the 'Per-Capita Brigade' are a dissident branch of the regular Fire Brigade, who will only come out if the building has more than 4 occupants.

Good move.

Make it 28,300,002.

Cuomo canceled the primary, so these are getting shredded.

Xenon, I was doing the same thing two weeks ago. Made a mention on FB about my frustration and I had an acquaintance immediately offer up a freezer they were getting rid of. You might try the same?

My backup plan? I was going to buy a used refrigerator with a 5 cubic foot freezer for the basement...

By the way, you may want to check used appliance shops, estate sales, or moving sales.

This may come down to ad blockers and tracking protection software.
On my Mac with Safari, I see embedded tweets just fine; I'm running Adblock Plus and Ghostery Lite, both with default settings.
If you know which ad blocking and/or tracking protection software you are using, try researching on the web on how to check if your ad blocking or tracking protection software is blocking embedded tweets.

1/6 (or so) of the US economy just lost about 40% of its income.
