If it isn’t Trump it will be a midwestern or southern dem governor.

Real incomes went up much more under Trump than Biden

Voters dismissed COVID as a one-off

Housing got worse

Eggs are expensive

Also, bigotry

There is no wizard behind the curtain. Metas algorithms aren’t operating at the behest of the us government. Nobody knows how they work, nobody is in control, it’s all a mystery box that chases revenue.

Also “they” is a hell of a term

Who is they

The Dems? The Dems aren’t a united party. They have endless infighting and cliques. AOC unseated a multi decade house rep. Gillibrand got the party to pressure a rapey comedian Senator to resign. Biden made Obama endorse gay marriage. There’s no “they”

It’s also very useful to gird yourself against the predictable reactions that a “bump” in our social order can drive.

One failed teleology can lead you to another teleology.

Fascism can drive you into the arms of communism.

No autocracy or teleology is good.

Go read the book on tyranny. It’s available as a pdf online. Pay special attention to the epilogue.

How many TSR AD&D books do you have on your shelves

Small businesses offer fewer, worse benefits and lower wages on average compared with large businesses.

They also offer fewer legal protections to employees.

Otherwise yeah Trump is an idiot who couldn't make money selling popsicles on the beach in summer.

Are you similarly weeping for the people of Darfur, Nigeria, Ukraine, the Kurds, Myanmar, Uyghurs, and Ethiopia?

Or do you just bring up Gaza because, well, we all know (((the reasons))) don't we?

idk I think you are vastly underselling how impactful Biden's presidency has been

I can't recommend this humidifier enough. It's just smart enough, easy to clean, easy to swap filters, and is evaporative (so it actually adds moisture to the air). No internet connection required and it's quiet.

I hated the book Strange & Norrell but loved the BBC adaptation. The adaptation made Arabella a character instead of simply a possession Strange wanted back.

What are the climate doomers going to conjure next for their near-term apocalyptic scenario?
