Ah, but he lost in the right way: campaigning nationally instead of the state he was running in, and thereby raising record amounts of campaign funds to pay into the pockets of DNC-associated consulting firms.
Greengrocer’s apostrophe.
It must be exhausting always rooting for the antihero.
Every press release and campaign email has just been “I’m not owned, I’m not owned” lately.
I eat almost no processed food other than giving my kids breakfast cereal and lunch treats, and a grocery trip that I’m used to costing $80 costs $120, consistently, week over week. Maybe food prices aren’t continuing to skyrocket, but higher prices are locked in, and wages aren’t catching up.
The other thing is that I expect Biden to spend a lot of time and money campaigning in states that don’t matter to him electorally, as payment to his intra-party supporters. For example, South Carolina is solidly Republican and there is zero chance of Biden winning its electoral votes, but he will spend time campaigning there purely for the prestige it gives Jim Clyburn.
The main problems I see are that for Biden to win, he needs not just the core “Blue No Matter Who” vote, but a broader coalition. In 2020, that included young people, and politically unaware people who were upset about COVID. In 2024, he’s doing everything possible to alienate the youth (via support for genocide, and violence against protesters), and the politically unaware people are upset about the economy. Trump isn’t any more popular than he was in 2020, this is entirely an own goal on the Biden campaign’s part.
Great, WWIII is right on schedule, still hoping for First Contact in 2063.
More seriously, can you believe these ghouls?

Buying a Dr. Bashir action figure and a Garak action figure so I can mash them together and make them kiss.
Good for Harry Kim that he finally got his promotion.
I don’t use TikTok, but if they ban it I sure as fuck will start.
I always got death-cult vibes from beehaw. I expected their flame-out to be a lot more dramatig than this, though.

The older ones were larger (and more likely to explode). Not backpack sized, though.

I see that it’s in Klingon, but I’m too lazy to transliterate and translate. What does it say?
