40% of Americans believe that dinosaurs lived concurrently with humans. We have problems here.

Do we know if other mammals can enjoy the feeling of being drunk the way humans do?

It could still be a prince. In reality, it can take years for a kissed cursed prince to transform back into a human. They have to put on a LOT of mass, and every cell in the body has to change roles in an orderly fashion so the body can continue to function throughout the transformation. It is a grotesque, painful, and often long process.

It is just corn. Masquerading as nuts.

They’re definitely dead. Hand sanitizer is just alcohol with some gel to thicken it. Ethanol, propanol, both will denature their proteins.

Imagine you get halfway across the bay and some kid says they don’t believe in ferries, then your boat sinks.

I really do want the small piece. I’m too full. I actually don’t want any pie at all, but I don’t want to be rude.

Agreed, Democratic leadership’s stance on Israel was/is out of step with the majority of the base. Also, that does not make them fascist, as you implied.

I don’t know how to make this simpler. The two major parties in our country are different. Republicans are much worse than Democrats. Your life and the lives of those you care about will be worse if you vote for Republicans, third party, or don’t vote. These are indisputable facts, and it is frustrating that so many people who should understand them do not.

Gay is still an adjective in that one. It is requesting gay dogs to be pet.

A reasonable request, either way you read it

It’s sad that, even at the good churches, God still refuses up to 3 miracles just to make sure they remember who’s boss.

This is a good example of the type of (nominally leftist) person who is essentially unpersuadable. How are you supposed to convince these guys to vote when they don’t see a meaningful difference between MAGA and normie Democrats? They don’t live in reality.

Let me also say, you are right that blaming specific groups of voters is not a good campaign strategy. I’m not suggesting we go knock on doors and berate people who identify as leftist but refuse to vote for Democrats. Of course it’s better to try and persuade them.

That being said, I can personally come to the conclusion that 2024 was in part their fault, and it does no harm to tell the truth on an obscure web forum that maybe 100 people will read.

It’s impossible for any party to appeal to a majority of voters on everything. If Democrats could have done something to be more appealing to greens than Stein was, then whatever that something was would have turned off some other segment of the coalition, possible losing net votes. Winning a national election requires broad appeal, and being the only viable non-fascist, pro-democracy ticket should have been reason enough for any decent person to vote for the Democratic candidate. I don’t know what these greens want, but not living in a Christo-fascist hellhole is apparently not a high priority for them. Fuck them to hell.

Wait, I thought they represented “less than 1% of the vote” and therefore don’t matter. But Democrats’ failure to pander to them cost them the election too? I’m confused.

She certainly tried to help get Trump elected. Just because she’s ineffective doesn’t make her not a piece of shit.

Probably some specific memory Trump has of seeing a cup with “too many pencils, why do you need so many pencils???” 40 years ago. Just like the doll thing. There are more modern, relevant examples of discretionary spending he could have chosen, but his brain is mush from 1985.
