Uncertainty is inherently unsustainable. Eventually, everything either is or isn't.
I know it’s probably unlikely, but what are the chances that the waves of sexual harassment/abuse stories happening right now circles back around to Trump?

There were so many accusations last year, and then it got swept under the trash-rug of Trump madness. The worst accusations were straight up nightmarish, and predated his presidential run by years.

Except the only major elections are NJ governor, VA governor and a lone UT congressional seat.

In the VA governor race the sanctuary cities debacle is clearly a bigger deal than this DNC stuff.

It’s also kind of interesting that Murphy is taking advantage of the party’s negative image and using it as a springboard whereas Northam has no interaction with that dynamic at all and is just a big fat idiot relying on better people than himself for a win.

Yeah I was pleasantly shocked that he was pushing a state bank so hard. That's a great way to push back on the negative wall street connotations with something meaningful.

I have to agree with you. I was born in 78 and never felt like I had much in common with the Xers. They all seemed like kids who grew up in the 70s rather than the 80s.

I used Compuserve and AOL on a dial up modem to reach the internet, didn't have a cell phone till I was 24.

Oh did they finally come up with a separate term instead of simply floating around the beginning of the millennial generation to a different place with every mention? It was always funny that half the time I was a Millennial and half the time I was a Gen Xer whenever generation talk was in the news.

At least some people learned that there is another generation of assholes between the Boomers and the Millennials. A comparatively small group of mopey misfits who were our first MTV VJs and are now split between being either a Kennedy or a Stewart. And then an even smaller group of jerks who were born when the Twilight of Gen X and the Dawn of the Millennials met, a cohort who both remember the existence of the pre-computer world and grew up with computers. I remember when your computer choices were a Tandy, a Commodore, or an Apple.

By the way, since we're on that subject and before I forget:

Is it pronounced "un-TEE-fuh" or "anti-FAH"? I have seen people mock the former in this thread and I understand how the latter makes more sense as a contraction of "anti fascism" but the former rolls off the tongue smoother for me. (English is not my first language though) Is there a generally accepted way of saying it?
