basic outline for a timeline ive been mulling over where paul wellstone lives and becomes president in 2008 2002: Paul Wellstone doesn't die in a plane crash and decisively beats Norm Coleman in his senate race, notably despite efforts from the bush admin to hit him over voting against the iraq war

also cope imo, the people saying things are bad mostly want it to be true so they have an excuse to stop caring

the autumn and the scarlet 🍁@marcy.beneprism.rip

What is the opposite of cope? That is: what is the term for when people make up stories for why a situation is far worse than it is, and condemn others for their Pollyannaish belief that we live in other than the worst of all possible worlds?

i think it's a mistake to extrapolate from crowd sizes/reactions as 2024 showed but i watched the entire vance rally from this week for work and it was not nearly this loud

Amy Acton: As a young child, my brother and I experienced a lot of child abuse and neglect. We moved countless times as kids, and even wound up living in a tent in the middle of winter. And now my opponent has chosen to exploit my childhood to save his struggling campaign. But it's not going to work

Iran has made no new offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for lifting the U.S. naval blockade, citing an informed source. The source says Tehran is sticking to its seven conditions and will not reopen the strait until its demands are met.-Tasnim

Might be elitist of me but im simply done entertaining these opinions from anyone who doesn’t know what margin abdul el-sayed needs out of wayne county- like, this YouTuber makes video essays about Star Trek, the adults are talking now

ME2 was annoying because I had been roleplaying shepherd as willing to do whatever it took to serve the interests of the coalition of planets, and 2 essentially made renegade a stand in for allegiance to Cerberus rather than something that could coexist with loyalty to the coalition

ftr my opinion of ai has slightly changed this year. i think it's clearly as a whole bad for society but ive found it genuinely useful as a research tool and the ability to get things out faster has been genuinely essential a few times this cycle. also i truly dont care about vibecoding at all

top 5 worst movies ive seen this year 5. the social reckoning (not bad technically, but kind of evil) 4. hope (didnt work for me at all) 3. her private hell (which is so bad it's good) 2. the rivals of amziah king (simultaneously preachy and deeply evil) 1. good luck, have fun, don't die

If you spend too much influence trump endorses your rival and you lose This gets around the inherent issue of a Trump II incumbency sim, which is that they’ve made so many mistakes that a successful run would just be not doing that which would be boring

Dem candidates would be aoc (high wins, dem base is mad), Newsom (high wins, dem base is demoralized), Harris (low wins, dem base is mad), Shapiro (low wins, dem base demoralized) and Jon Ossoff as the super boss who is convinced to run if you’ve acc had a successful presidency and will destroy you
