Me too, far northwest corner as far as you can go.


Lakeland County is Chicago-East, lol.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Nostalgia for Bernie's electability right about now.

The President (2012) said:

Please proceed, Governor.

Chris Christie (2016) said:

There it is.

Elizabeth Warren (2020) said:

And no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump. I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.

Take Bernie off the map and blame those dumb fuckers who were so in the hat for him for letting Trump win. Who is better off now?

I'm going to start an emigration process because I'm that fucking scared of Trump.

I don't want to be a part of Trump America.

Yep, I wish I could find out how many switched to Trump.

That's gonna cause drama, she won by 20k and the governor allowed 60k prisoners vote which is controversial.

No worries. If you really know the amount of shenanigans that happen in the background...it's out of control.

Oh wow. We're seeing History in the making.

The bad kind, with a capital "H". The kind likely to lead to untold suffering and possibly Einstein's vision of WW4. But History nonetheless.

Majority of me wants to curl up in a fetal position and chant "we're all gonna die". But some small part of me can't help but wonder how they managed to dupe this many people. It's remarkable, from a technical perspective.

True, I read a story about a voting machine that got turned on in the morning and just started counting votes even though no-one has placed anything.

I'm sure there is crazy stuff everywhere.

How is this even a contest?
If the Americans elect Trump, then they probably deserve everything they get. But why should the rest of us have to suffer?!

Computerphile has a video on youtube about why electronic voting is idiotic.

Let's just say electronic voting and probably vote counting are are idiotic.

Please god don't make me move. I could deal with Bush; Trump is a bridge too far.

@ Ment. We have talked about this for some time. It's all about the powers putting the perfect person in the forefront..to take the blame. An outsider is perfect.
