I will add one more thing, it’s okay to be wrong
The people who wrap up their world view under the cloak of religion can’t admit they were wrong because that would have to mean their faith was wrong.
I play guitar, watch USMLR and NHL, occasionally brew beer, enjoy live music and travel, and practice sarcasm.

I just tried searching for @pics@lemmy.world on pixelfed.social and it was not found. However I can find myself when I search for @baronvonj@lemmy.world on pixelfed.social. So seems like you can’t.
Clinton won the 2016 primary on the strength of her popular vote lead, without needing any superdelegates to ratfuck the vote at the convention. Same with Biden in 2020 (and the DNC changed the rules starting in 2018 such that the vote at the convention doesn’t even include superdelegates unless it’s contested and needs a second vote).
The problem is simply one of turnout. Progressive voters just haven’t turned up enough to sustain what Bernie started in 2016. If Bernie and AOC can keep it up, and get more of the Squad and people like Waltz stumping around the country for state and local races, and get progressives to both run and vote in the primaries, we can do it.
Missed opportunity headline. Supply chains crack under yolk of <cause(s)>.
Nationwide, over 99% of the legislative offices (state and federal) are held be either a Democratic or Republican. Only the two major parties have nationwide ballot access. Only three minor parties have ballot access in more than 10. A third party won’t be viable nationally until we have ranked choice voting everywhere. They won’t even be viable at the state level without it in that state. Not all states have direct ballot initiatives. That will only happen through ballot initiatives or the major party in control of the state adopting it. Only 26 states have ballot initiatives.
Put that effort into ballot initiatives in the states that have them, and into the Democratic primaries nationwide, until we have ranked choice. Then we can have more than two parties.
I put some extra fiber and collagen protein in my tea, so I put that in first, pour in the heated water, stir, and then the tea bag. If I’m away and don’t have those available, the tea bag first all the way.
Just to pointlessly clarify, this is article is a paraphrasing of tweets by a journalist who calls himself a Musk biographer. The quoted journalist is not, as the possessive apostrophe in the headline implies, a biographer hired by Musk.
Contact your representatives, people.
Fuck off and chug some more water, you prick.
I like to listen for the giggles from the people who forgot to mute when doing this.
I hate the idea of “personal” time. It doesn’t belong to my job by default. It’s all my personal time. If they want any of it they will need to pay.
I mean… Thomas point blank said so after Dobbs.
An Herculean effort, even.
Someone’s looking to become Detective Mike.
He didn’t getter trapped or tricked. He knows what he is doing
It seems you’re dispelling some notion … 🤔 What does Secretary Rubio think about it?
You never heard of the Bureaucrasaurus? Or the Administradon?
Yes, in reality. But in oligarchy fantasy land, it’s regulations that get in the way profits.
I mean did you see what oversight did to share prices?
Grok Damnit.
