My guess is that my blood sugar was damn near zero so any food would have done that to me, but dammit if that fountain Doner didn’t rock my world. I’ve had many since and they’re always great but not worth really remembering details about, but I always remember that one…..


You never forget your first boner. I was eleven years old and went to the local 7-11, where they had girlie magazines out in plain view. I'll never forget. It was Shannon Tweed, Playboy playmate of the year in 1982, who had that effect on me. I'll never forget her outfit. She was wearing .... oh, wait ... you said DONER.  Nevermind.

Doner? I hardly knew her!

 

I’ll see myself out….

Was looking at site traffic and dumbass me was like wtf happened last year on the first Tuesday of November? Why is traffic down 50% YoY on that day. I was like damn the CFP selection show was lit and I don't remember it. 

Dumbass me keeps scrolling haha. Becomes obvious.

The election went better than expected but the triumphalism makes me nervous. This is a bit like beating Sam Houston State on week 1 and declaring the national championship inevitable. My dudes the right still controls all three branches of government and we are potentially decades away from undoing all that they have done even in ideal circumstances. This is no time for complacency.

Yeah well...we'll see. Let's see those kind of results in Texas or Florida among Hispanic/Latinos then we will talk.

If anything I’m seeing people more motivated because of this

If those numbers happen in Texas and Florida, both those states turn blue and both houses of congress have massive supermajorities in 2026 and 2028. 

 

Color me skeptical.

Exactly. Now maybe those numbers are just reflective of those specific states that voted: Virginia, New York, and New Jersey. But if they comparing national voters vs this most recent election it doesn't necessarily mean the tide has turned. Things will be more clear next year. The battle has only begun.

Hope so. I am still getting PTSD from 2008 and 2020 when we thought something great had happened.

Hope, in reality, is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man. 
 

of course the same guy also said to live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering. 
 

and some other things.

(the citizens of Gotham slowly realizing that putting The Joker in charge of everything probably wasn't the greatest idea. Turns out, he's not doing anything he promised and in fact is just stealing everyone's money. Who could have known.)

I mean, something great did happen in those years.

It just wasn't permanent. The lesson is nothing is permanent.

It was barely temporary. To me the lesson is the election is not the end of the struggle, it is just the beginning. Things have to go well in New York now.

You're absolutely right but it's also damn sure better than losing to Sam Houston State.

Those numbers are snapback from independent voters going with Trump. I don't think anyone seriously thinks those percentage moves are going to be replicated in hard Republican electorates.

You should post this on one of the "CR Sucks" threads for the mouth-breathers.

While true, in a national election a shift of a couple of percentage points can change the outcome.

A reminder that Harold Lutnick's net worth is estimated to be 3 billion dollars and that it has doubled since 2018.  I'm sure he has a real good idea what's good for the people who voted Mamdani in. 

If only Democrats policy makers could just simply adopt this message in response to every manipulative grifter in politics, we might start getting somewhere beyond NYC.
