Crypto’s main utility is speculation and as dark money for illicit activities. The fact that everyone involved is a right-wing lunatic is just a nice cherry on top reason for a Harris admin to crush the industry. Ban online sports betting while we’re at it.

So he didn’t know what a town hall was, absolutely hated it and took the first opportunity he found to ditch, right?

Kind of like how it’s much cheaper to just pay for everyone to have preventative medicine rather than wait until they end up in the emergency room. Many such cases

Incidentally, this is why I always hated the ironic “It’s too bad this guy is so funny” posts. He’s not funny! He sucks! All you’re doing is building a meme that less-informed people will uncritically accept.

Scrolling the timeline you’d assume Trump had moved ahead by 5 points when in reality, Harris is in the lead. 2016 PTSD is real

Ooh parallels to authoritarian leaders. Could that be because he’s a fascist authoritarian?

Maybe I’m just choosing to believe this for my own sanity, but everything except the polls supports the idea that Harris will win rather easily and there’s decent reason to think the polls are underestimating her this time around

How far gone do you have to be to cheer someone telling you that they will abandon you when a fire or earthquake strikes?

I bought a book about an instance of witchcraft in 1650’s Massachusetts. The cast of characters contains this incredible line: “George and Hannah Langton, who were convinced their steamed meat pudding was bewitched.”

It really does feel like everything except the polls is pointing towards a relatively easy Harris win

1. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh - I grew up thinking every city had a museum with a huge dino exhibit 2. Museo del Prado in Madrid - The Garden of Earthly Delights is worth the admission alone. Also, Goya’s Black Paintings 3. American Museum of Natural History in NYC - Duh
