Name recognition is a hell of a thing. It explains why shitty incumbents consistently get re-elected. Also, voters are so fucking stupid.

I never even hinted that I was a Hillary supporter, and I agree 100% with all the shit you pointed out. I just think the fucking dipshits that actually voted for her need to be blamed at least as much. Too many bitch about corruption, nepitism, and general fuckery, then go and vote for “their” corrupt politian. It’s fucking gross.
Don’t place the blame on her. Blame the dumb fuck primary voters. Or the dumb fucks who couldn’t be bothered to vote in the primary and then bitched about their shitty choice.
EDIT: Amazing the twists people will go through to excuse dumb ass voters.
When the Supreme Court loses all legitimacy, like it has, things get shittier much, much quicker.
This is what most of the schools around my area installed a couple years ago:
I heard Gerald Ford’s son talk about being on Spring Break and a fellow breaker came up to him and whispered,“Man, I don’t know what you did, but you have some Feds watching everything you do!!”
All the Dems I know, which is just about every person I know, don’t’t have a problem with it.

I also couldn’t find a better map on that link. The state itself is strikingly partisan, and I can’t imagine a map that wouldn’t reflect that. That could just be my lack of imagination though.
Corporate partners were brought on and more than $1.5 million was raised for the project. . . . No new home for animals was built, the main corporate partner pulled out and no one seems to be able to account for what happened to more than $300,000 that had been raised.
I wonder what happened to the $90,000, I mean if I was given and extra $2,000 I would know where it was. In fact, if this is a problem, I’ll just return the $17 bucks. Jeez.
Oh goodness.
I wish people would explain their downvotes for this post. It has more information and nuance than 99% of the posts on lemmy. I guess because it doesn’t fit whatever rage they are currently entertaining.

I had to laugh at an earlier observation of a homeless guy being kicked out of the UCI encampment by the protestors.
EDIT: Hal Holbrook wasn’t wrong when he said the change in the audience over the years for his Mark Twain show was a quickly dwindling ability to appreciate satire.
And helped the illegitimate SC completely dodge the 14th Amendment disqualification portion of the Colorado case.

Well, “agreeing with the Texas AG” was not on my list of expected things today. Or this month. Or this year. But here I am.
This place is just getting worse and worse. You’re right, but lemmy == reddit with the unthinking downvotes.
If I’ve learned anything over the years, it is that geriatric power vampires never willingly step down.
