At age 8 my girls didn't get to decide what clothes to wear or how to fix their hair.

Self-defunding.

@89th said in Interesting Early Voting Data: I’ll change my profile pic to a Native American if Trump wins. Run for Senate then and you got my support!

It's been utterly tedious over the past years to attempt to explain to TDS sufferers that Trump doesn't need to be perfect, or even bereft of reasons to consider him totally icky, to be considered a better political choice than his opposition, by reasonable and decent minds.

@Jolly I knew you knew that.

I'm familiar with this guy's story as well. Somehow it's made the podcast rounds for going on several years now. At the time I heard of it, he seemed innocuous. Maybe there are darker stories about him that have been parceled out by now.

@jon-nyc said in Don’t believe it was Hunter’s PC?: It’s unclear whether the email is real but it’s far more clear that Russian intelligence hacked Biden’s son and used the President’s personal lawyer to release it. Who needs Julian Assange anymore? I don't know if it's clear or not. We'll let you know in three and a half years...

Votes are easy if they don't matter, but the messaging power of being able to honestly say that you voted for someone. Votes become hard if you have to make a difficult choice.

@jon-nyc said in Preemptive Snowflaking: @Jolly said in Preemptive Snowflaking: Trump is after eyeballs. Trump vs. Biden ratings will be interesting... Biden got more, on TV at least. Maybe online will tell a different story. https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/tv/2020/10/16/town-hall-ratings-joe-biden-donald-trump/3678355001/ https://founders.alialexander.org/members/posts/39283-trump-beats-biden-is-overall-ratings-in-head-to-head-counter-programmed-broadcast-television-townhal And as mentioned, Tucker did very well in the same time slot.

@Horace said in So you signed a million dollar deal with a record label...: Yeah but how many shares of Apple could have been bought. Adjusted for splits, Apple stock had an average price of about 0.4893 USD per share. $250 per week translates to about 511 shares of (post-split) Apple stock per week in 1992. Today (2020-10-16), 511 shares of Apple stock is worth about 29,800 USD.

I was probably in my 20s by the time I knew those books were blatant Christian allegory. That was the speed at which I learned of the world pre-internet.
