The world doesn’t just see how terrible trump is, they saw us allow this man to president not once, but twice. Once he’s gone, maybe we can breathe a sigh of relief, but our allies will always have to wonder when Americans will turn on them once again.

I just published an update to our 527 Explorer of political nonprofits. We added over 500k new records since our last update in June. It's an election year, meaning I will be updating this every month until the election. Happy Friday! projects.propublica.org/527-explorer/

1. Voters elected someone manifestly unfit for the presidency. 2. Elected GOP failed to do their duty and instead gave POTUS cover for widespread lawbreaking (Dem response mixed). 3. The President launched an illegal war. 4. Now, no good outcomes available, here’s to hoping we get the least bad.

I feel real dumb, I just got my 360 back from the shop after they had it for about a month trying to replicate the problem with the HDMI. Turns out the HDMI cable wasn’t seated all the way in to the back of my monitor. It’s amateur hour over here folks. Fucking hell.

I hate to be negative. I really hope I’m wrong. But, I’ve seen enough in the last 12 years to say with some confidence that even if democrats do take over, trump and all the fucks that covered for that pedo are not going to be held to account. At least not how some folks might expect/want.

I found a book that my Dad should read. Oh never mind my dad is dead. Funny story. My dad died of a genetic condition that was slowly destroying his lungs. The meds were about $3000 a month. I know someone with the same condition he’s still alive. Care to guess why?? Let me give you a hint. $$

Billionaires take money, not make money. Their workers are the ones who make the money. Bezos is not on the floor in his warehouses. Musk is not the one making his electric cars. Zuckerberg is not the one coding his Facebook. Billionaires take the money that workers make.

I always want to encourage folks when I see them working hard, helping, or trying something new. It’s a little thing, but I feel it helps. But, if/when I see someone that try to hurt, take advantage, sabotage, or bully… that shit make me mad as fuck, and then I encourage my self to beat they ass.
