Well when you don't want to play the "getting elected" game, don't be surprised when you don't "get elected"

Democratic primaries? How much national popularity did that take?

Lol, ok, you win, I give up completely. Your logic, I can't compete. She was the Beyonce of 2016.

No it's not. Sorry, you and I do not agree.

Because, believe it or not, keeping Hillary from winning is not why the Electoral College exists.

One of the reasons the United States has been the breadbasket of the world is because our government has HAD to account for the interests of underpopulated agrarian areas that otherwise would be ignored because they wouldn't get ELECTED otherwise. Minnesota, Nebraska, and Iowa are IMPORTANT in elections. So we take care of our farmers.

Funny the way that works, isn't it?

You keep using that word.

I do not think it means what you think it means.

She was far from popular, in 2016. How old were you 2016? Because research may not be painting you a good picture.

And if you were an adult, perhaps you were isolated? I don't know the explanation. But you are quite wrong. She has never been popular with the majority.

Hillary? Popular? Did you just pop into this timeline from another reality?

The "undecideds" have always determined who wins the election. UN-DECIDED.

The fact that you and many others choose to INSULT them because they can't "immediately see" that Biden, even if he appears troublingly in need of at-home care, is a better choice than Trump, shows how entrenched you are in "being right" over "winning."

How do you convince a person who has yet to reject Trump based on what they've heard and seen, yet isn't sure whether they'll pick him or Biden, to choose Biden in the voting booth?

Yell at them and call them stupid?

And the entire center of the geographical US would look like the Appalachians, but who cares about "flyover country" anyway?

Great thread. Saved

This is a fine idea

Voters? How about the Democratic party? You're telling me there isn't a compelling candidate in the entire fucking United States of America?

...on the good things and ruin it for everyone. How would one go about letting people know, in a responsible manner.

Hypothetically.

...and they COULD NOT think of a natural process that could produce plastics in the environment in the amounts required to produce life?

Their science would never dream of how it happened.

What about another liquid? Is there a "perfect" cleaner, something that spreads and penetrates like nothing else?

Very interested in the answer.

Sure, "nice" needs some definition.

But that's your call. I'm asking you if you are a nice person.

I understand that the newer version has a different ending and some new characters and scenes that weren't in the original. But the original is what got all the accolades and was considered his best book.

Which way should I go?

It occurs to me that this last 1/2 century or so has been globally pretty peaceful. And I wondered if it might even be one of the MOST peaceful 50 years we've had.

I'm inclined to imagine that the Cold War might have kept a lid on larger military aspirations. What do you think, am I deluded?

I know I know. I wanted to import data from a web page - title and publishing dates from Stephen King books. I wanted to update my caliber library with the correct metadata from the online source.

I tried three different AI's. Claude. Pi. And ChatGPT. I've spent all day copying and pasting error messages copying pasting new scripts running scripts copying and pasting error messages etc etc etc.

I could have gone line by line through my caliber library manually in much less time than I have spent doing this.

There's no question the AI knows how to program in Python better than I do. What hope do I have of ever reducing my workload significantly using Python?

Why can't I just be normal. Why do I have to be so zoned in. Why does my attention never go beyond my own skin.

If it's cheap to get stars, I'm definitely having Dolph Lundgren at my next birthday party. Dude doesn't have to do anything, just hang out.
