Initially we didn’t know that the shooter was Republican.

More over though I see a lot of people discussing stats for voters based off of 2020 but I really don’t think that’s a good year to base it on given that the covid lockdowns were taking place. A lot of people had nothing better to do and actually paid attention to politics. A lot of people were miserable, partly because of Trump’s awful handling of covid but also just the fact that we were going to be miserable anyways.

All we really know at the end of the day is that Trump feeds off a lot of occurrences like this and it’s worrisome. Many people are more anxious for their futures than ever before right now.

Things are looking a lot better now that it’s come out that the shooter was a registered republican.

Guessing this person made some sort of mistake.

A lot of people on Fetlife for example know to vet their partners thoroughly so they don’t end up with a serial killer and to be careful with the information trail they leave on there.

I feel like you’re a little out of touch here.

There are hardline Democrats and Republicans who aren’t going to change their positions over anything. There’s also many people who don’t pay close attention to politics and only pick up on big news like this. Those are the people that are going to be influenced unfortunately. These people exist. They are uninformed, easily influenced and they can swing the outcome unfortunately.

This was the worst possible outcome. Unless someone intends on finishing the job it may as well be his election now.

He’ll spend the rest of the election telling people how strong he is, how Biden could not have survived and he’ll use the attack to validate all his claims of Democrat corruption/Republican righteousness.

I realize that there isn’t anyone he could pick that I’d feel comfortable with considering I don’t feel comfortable about him at all but the thought of this still made me shudder a little.

Even if he didn’t try to have Pence killed, he doesn’t need Pence at this point. He’s got the evangelical voters now. I believe Rubio is out of Florida, so that won’t work out for obvious reasons.

Meanwhile the other two have a bit too much spine and self-respect for themselves still. The orange ego maniac will be looking for someone that obeys him at every turn.

YouTube is great in general. I remember as a teen going into college thinking that the changes were going to kill it but really the platform has a lot of great content for everything. Everything except gaming anyways, which is a bit ironic.

Tutorials, cooking videos, engineering and math videos, historical discussions and theory.

Even if you look past the cruelties committed, it’s still disappointing.

I’ve read a variety of books on various wars and those that we were involved in were mostly disappointing in regards to tactical decisions. Everything after the revolution either feels like a fluke or just simply feels as if we brute forced our way through with resources until the post WWII era where various campaigns failed due to guerilla warfare. I’m oversimplifying but especially early on in its life the country’s militia was a bit unimpressive.

Yeah, I just snip the tips on the front ones usually. I’ve been doing it since he was little and while he doesn’t appreciate it he has never fought or clawed me in the process of it.

Biden was was talking like someone with the grogginess just getting woken up in the middle of the night then smoking a joint right before coming on. (i.e. We’re fucked either way.)

As someone who doesn’t like giving Biden free passes just because he’s not Trump, I feel like I haven’t seen anyone mentioning the time limit set for responses during the debate. It clearly was not in his favor. Trump can talk your ear off about any nonsense he can dream of at a moments notice.

Biden has always had to take time to think. Look at his speeches, look at the times he responds to reporters. There’s always pauses and gaps between responses where he has to think.

I like ironing my clothes though and if you show up to a formal family event with a shirt that looks like you rolled around in it, then I will offer to iron for you before the next time.

ArchWiki makes it so much easier these days.

As long as you can get away with it.

I feel so bad for the teachers. This is just yet another thing they have to comply with to keep their jobs.

Well, well, well if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions.

Just be skeptical about it from both perspectives.

Bad actors do exist but they’re not to blame for everything despite almost any organization or movement these days attempting to scapegoat any poor publicity they experience as bad actors.

Unfortunately this is possible.

I think it’s for the better that companies are having these blunders though. It’ll generate some amount of pushback and keep AI from taking over workplaces.

I see. I simply ask because the platform has changed a lot if you used it a little over a decade ago and I know some people who never got over the transition.

Absolutely understandable that you don’t want to spend time looking for anything that might catch your interest though.

Its literally the lowest form of entertainment and its not worth a single moment of ad watching.

I’m just curious, but what type of content would you be watching on YouTube?

I think the platform has come a long ways when it comes to content. Sure, if you’re just watching gaming content I’d say you’d be disappointed. It’s been like that for a decade now at least. There’s a lot of decent content on there though with a lot of it even being somewhat educational.

He supports a ceasefire only if his Israeli overlords accept it. He won’t attempt to use any leverage such as our munitions supply to Israel to attempt to force it though.

Still far better than the orange man who would outright assist Israel with exterminating Palestine.
