Did they hire the guy with a theoretical degree in physics?
In Ghostbusters, ghosts are real.
In Scooby Doo, ghosts are actually rich, greedy white men in a costume trying to scare off those meddling kids.
So are the ghosts real or not?
All I know is the kids in the Mystery Machine have good weed.
Thanks, we're really all on the same side here. We're all sick of this and just want it to be over and it to not be Trump. I'm with you on that, fucking ANYONE but him, please.
The only people duking it out at the convention will be delegates. The party clearly thinks that they know better than the voters and they're not gonna stop now.
Like the entire Democratic party keeps fucking up every chance they get because they're so self assured and won't listen to criticism. This has been the story of the last 25 fucking years.
Do you really expect me to believe they'll turn around now and make a good choice? I don't. Just like Hillary and Biden were bad choices, they're just gonna choose another fucking bad choice.
I'm not fretting about it, I think it's fucking stupid to leave the choice with the same idiots who fucked it up to begin with. They're not gonna suddenly let the voters decide. They're gonna let already determined party delegates decide. The same fucking "superdelegate" insiders who chose Hillary Fuckwit Clinton, the only person who was audacious enough to be able to lose to Donald Trump (and to this day walks around blaming everyone but herself). The same fuckwits who hid Biden's clearly serious age issues, just somehow hoping it would work out. You expect those people to suddenly field a non-fucktarded-candidate?
Yes, and with that edit, I do agree with your point.
First, a small nitpick. Technically, millennia go from 01–00, so 1901–2000, with 2001 being the first year of the new millennium.
Bro, a hundred years is a century. That's why 1900 was "turn of the century."
A millennium is one thousand years.
And considering the DNC locked Sanders out of winning primaries twice in a row, how are all the disenfranchised Democrat voters supposed to feel about...
The party choosing to ignore Biden's advanced age and not letting the cat out of the bag until well after we could have run some primaries and let the voters decide.
We're left with two options with a month and a half to the convention. Let the party apparatchiks choose the candidate, or let the delegates choose the candidate, both of which are inherently anti-democratic choices.
The DNC made these choices on purpose and are leaving voters without an actual choice on purpose. It is literally the party's choices that have lead us to this moment, but somehow the party making another bad choice will fix things? I seriously doubt that.
Who, when chosen by the DNC for us, (not BY us) do you think will actually excite voters?
Get back to me when we switch candidates and still lose.
You really think when the party goes into back rooms and smokes cigars to choose the candidate that the Democratic voters are just going to fall in line and vote for them?
What if the choice the party chooses is Hillary Rodham Clinton?
Tell me, what candidate do the Democrats even have that would electrify their voter base.
I'm a Democrat and all I've got to say is "Fuck Newsom" and "I'd vote for Whitmer to stop Trump but that's about it."
The very idea that the party choosing the candidate after years of people being angry about the party fucking over Bernie Sanders on purpose will be somehow a popular pick is a big fucking joke. They argued in court that it was legal for them to choose their own candidate. Lots of people remember that and will be pissed off that the party is choosing for them again.
We're well past the primaries. We have a month and a half until the convention. The two choices are the party picks the candidate, or they let the delegates choose at the convention. Both will be guaranteed shitshows, since none of the actual voters will get a choice in this matter.
Maybe you could run with this argument if the DNC hadn't purposefully locked Bernie Sanders out as a candidate twice in a row. People remember, people won't be happy about the bullshit choice of Biden being replace with another bullshit choice. We're not gonna magic up some primaries in a month and a half.
The party literally chose to ignore this issue until after the primaries so voters wouldn't have a choice. Fuck them for that.
They chose to deny that Biden was too old, and they purposefully waited until after the primaries to admit it to deny voters an actual choice because they think the party knows better. Evidence of the last 20 years is the party doesn't know shit.
...but I guess if we just ignore the actual logistics and the recent past of the party itself, we can just play pretend that it will totally work out. /s
It's just a joke. I don't want you to actually feel bad.
But you should do some research on Telegram, and the fact that they rolled ads out on its own should be a giant Red Flag waving you down. They're not a good company, and their homespun encryption is dubious at best.
Even changing the nominee is risky at this point. There's never been a party that has won when changing the nominee at the "last minute."
That's what's scary here, replacing him could even be more disastrous than standing behind him. Both are bad choices. We've been fucked into a bad choice by a party that doesn't give a shit about its own voters.
If only literally anybody in the party apparatus had listened to reason in four fucking years instead of being like "We can cart his corpse out until he croaks like we did with Dianne Feinstein."
Welcome to how the Democrats have operated as a party since the Bill Clinton era in the 90's.
I'm ready for the next step, which is to blame voters for not voting hard enough, after *checks notes... two years of viciously saying "You can't critique the President it's too close to an election" as if it's never not too close to an election to critique Democrats apparently.

The Onion is sold to new firm known as Global Tetrahedron

Hmm, I wonder why this shadowy organization sounds so... familiar?

I think it might be safe to file this one under "Good News." It sounds like everyone kept their jobs and the union is intact.

The only thing I want out of Fallout Season 2: Yes Man
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
We're heading to New Vegas in Season 2, and this is the only character I really would like to see resurface, mostly because Yes Man saved me from never finishing New Vegas. I was starting to get bored with the plot and Yes Man brought me back in.
Dave Foley killed as it Yes Man, and I would love to see him back in the role. I was a big fan of Foley from Kids in the Hall/News Radio days, and I was overjoyed when I ran into Yes Man and recognized his voice. Dave Foley has exactly the kind of absurd cheery demeanor a character like Yes Man needs.
Further, I'm going to assume the Courier/Yes Man taking over the Strip ending of New Vegas probably isn't canon, it means there's ample opportunity potentially for Yes Man to continue being the best Yes Man that he is.
Hell, I'd love to see any of the Kids in the Hall in Season 2, honestly. Kevin McDonald keeps looking weirder every fucking year, he would fit in with wastelanders. Hell, the new Kids in the Hall season was an Amazon Prime show, and both Kevin and Dave went full frontal nudity with their weird old bodies. They're the right kind of fit for the wasteland.
I would also think Foley's "Doomsday DJ" sketch is a great example of why they need him in Season 2 of Fallout.
