I had a doorknocker come by a few weeks ago. Told her we were voting for Pritzker, did nothing to hush up our barking German Shepard keep behind the screen door I was barely keeping closed, and said we didn't want that clutch of pamphlets she had in her hand.

I think they got the message, we haven't had any canvassers come to the house since then.

Be nice to canvassers. They have a lovely job. Also, if you take pamphlets from them, it costs their campaign money and you can use it to light a nice toasty fire. I ask for extras to "give to friends and family."

Beto winning would make my day if only because I'm going to see my entire extended Texan-Republican family for the first time in 3 years a week after the elections.

Also, RE: blackface, how is it generally regarded if a white person dresses as a famous black character, but eschews blackface? I ask because my two white friends want to go as Jules and Vincent from Pulp Fiction, and Jules plans to use an afro wig/sideburns and is generally smart enough not to do Samuel L Jackson impressions.

Opinions are divided on that kind of race-bending costuming. A lot of people, and this includes POC costuming fans, think it's fine as long as you avoid stereotypical affectations, and some think the long history of treating POC identity like something that can be taken off and on for entertainment purposes is too toxic for even homage.

All Space Force is, is a grift by the firms involved in DoD procurement. That's all it is. It becomes harder and harder to justify a trillion dollar war machine that's built to fight an imaginary industrialized enemy that doesn't exist. So we prolong the farce by looking for 'new ground to break.' That ground, is outer space. It's all money. It's all the grift.

Don't be nice to them. They aren't good people. You shouldn't associate with them, even if they are in the same "community." I've never once met a canvasser I ever knew personally, which would be a different situation, of course.

The guy may not worry about himself, but might worry about his family. If he were to do anything to MBS, who says they'll stop at killing him? "We'll kill your entire family even after you're dead" might be dissuasive enough.

Pretty sure I remember some mexican cartel doing something along those lines to a dead policeman's family.

No.

Republicans are unaccustomed to in-person push back of any kind and it discourages the hell out of them, especially if it's from someone who looks like them or someone they respect. Make them uncomfortable.
