I've got a long list of real good reasons for all the things I've done,

I've got a picture in the back of my mind of what I've lost and what I've won,

I've survived every situation knowing when to freeze and when to run,

and regret is just a memory, written on my brow,

and there's nothing I can do about it now.

Jesus it's insane that this election is even close. It was sickeningly astonishing the first time Trump won, but for Americans to put him in office again after everything he's done is just a big middle finger to the concept of responsible, democratic government. Voting for Trump is not an act of ignorance anymore, it's an act of malice.

It’s slow going, and people are split between BluSky, Mastodon, and Threads.  And Threads/Mega are dragging their feet in a few key features - embedding is now possible but it relies upon third parties to update their software, but they are still refusing to do DMs (telling people to pop back into Instagram for that). They are also sticking to only one hashtag which is annoying.

I like the discussions in threads - because of no advertising, there’s fewer bots and lots of people just talking.

What's interesting about Threads is that it's a carry over thirst trap from Instagram but much more localized. I'm not saying it's like shooting fish in a barrel but it's like shooting fish in a barrel.

So with Threads you can easily filter with ATX and SATX and the algorithm doesn't feed you dudes. Jumping into the DM's is easy peasy.

These seven combined are worth over a trillion dollars and collectively control most of the public information space.  You cannot have a functioning Democracy with this shit.  It’s too much concentration of power, they can rewrite history if they want and no government is going to stop them. 

This shit. This shit right here. All of it.

It's why this country is heading into a dark age at absolute best, regardless of who wins the election. Trump may or may not win, I honestly have no idea (gun to my head - he does, we simply cannot have nice things). But this shit is too far gone.

Granted maybe this list wasnt 7 people long, but hasn't this been the case for a long fucking time? I don't buy into the doom and gloom here. Media magnates have always existed.

I disagree and really was hoping for her to go on there.  Shit ton of young males need to be reached plus the Tik Tok crowd. We can't keep ignoring this demo.  And she's  tough enough to brush back any bullshit he might ask.

I sadly know a lot of moderate types that listen to JR bc "he has interesting guests." I'm talking otherwise fairly progressive people  including a dude that had Tim Walz as an teacher in HS.

I think it would have created a lot of positives.

I generally agree with this sentiment, but if Joe Rogan can't accommodate the sitting Vice President of the United States by agreeing to reasonable terms - whether that be studio security, acknowledging there are going to be some questions she cannot answer, arranging a remote interview, whatever - then he can kiss VPOTUS's ass.

For the record, again, we have no idea if any of this happened because the source is the Travis County GOP clown.

That nonsensical post implying Harris is afraid of a Rogan interview for some reason is ridiculous and there's no reason to give it any credence. In fact Rogan said himself today that he's still trying to accommodate Harris.

Dick Fucking Cheney has publicly supported Kamala Harris, as have a shitload of other high-profile Republicans. Shit, the mayor of Oklahoma Fucking City just came out yesterday.

That means there's going to be a shitload of Republicans who *quietly* vote for her (or just don't vote).

Hell, .Republicans I know have said they are voting for Harris.

One of the lawyers want to tell me why this isn’t catastrophic? It got kinda lost in the rally buzz. 

If you’re a regular slate reader, your concern might be tempered by the fact they’ve run a “this is the end of the republic as we know it” article daily since 2007.  

Apathy is the enemy moreso than Trump the Bloviator.  In 2000,  if only 10% more registered minority Democrats had made their way to the polls in this punkass backward state (according to SurlyWorld), Al Gore would have carried Alabama and made it to 270 and won the Presidency without carrying Florida, if we truly concede Florida, which I will never do.

Scotus SHOULD overturn this, as they have a precedent that basically calls for no last minute election changes. But it’s, let’s say, unevenly applied.

It’s “close” bc the media is selling you a 50/50 horse race. It’s “close” because every polling firm is terrified to be wrong again and making the polls reflect a 50/50 race so they can say “well it could have gone either way!”

It’s really not going to be that close. 2012 redux

I guess we should explain that it's the Fifth Circuit, which has jurisdiction only over Texas, MIssissippi, and Louisiana.  Of those, only Mississippi attempts to count votes not received by election day.  So it only actually affects Mississippi and it wasn't changing the electoral outcome in any of them.  ETA, even the MS Secretary of State said the change will not be implemented until after this election.

But, it could be used as a precedent elsewhere.  It's not binding anywhere else, and, now that the Fifth Circuit has lost most of its credibility, will not be a convincing precedent   And, luckily, the trial court reached the opposite conclusion and didn't attempt to give a nationwide injunction against such laws.

Also, this is what wildcat refers to.  Purcell.

They cover her campaign well for the algorithm that feed people who are already going to be voting for her.

It's because Trump voters literally don't care about you at all.

I assume the county releases the official voter affiliation for each ballot received. Why not just stop the ruse and count the mail in and early votes as they occur. So what if one candidate realizes they are behind and they go all-in to get more voters. They do this already based on imperfect data.
