The senate isn't gonna flip, the house is, cruz is probably toast. Not an entirely awful outcome really.

I just ran out of the good poo poo, my emergency reserve of moonshine. The grandma's-recipe-made-in-the-bathtub-in-the-basement stuff.

Then again, I'm only tracking the this through the thread because I don't really want to know till the morning. But still.

ah yes the stellar democrat track record of the last few decades of enacting and protecting meaningful social programs.

the problem isn't conservative brainworms, the problem is the democrats have no leg to stand on themselves.

That and the dems have pretty much decided that those people aren't worth fighting for which leads to people thinking well why would I vote for the dems when they clearly don't give a gently caress about rural people? Also guns+abortion are more important to rural people and have been thoroughly adopted as Republican talking points.

Considering the kind of poo poo rural people care about, gently caress em'. And that's from somebody who's family is from a hick town in North Carolina.

gently caress em'.

I've been leaning more and more towards just forgetting all about my family back in the cesspool that is the rural South.

Calc 3/Multi Variable. Its weird because i've already taken diffeq and linear and plenty of RF engineering classes where it was all applied multivariable.

But despite all the khan academy and 3blue1brown videos I barely get by. But a whole lot of other students are barely getting by so maybe I'm not doing so bad?

The Democratic party has not had any real presence in Texas since Ann Richards and the geniuses that run this poo poo nationally thought ~~demographics are destiny~~~ like they're just all one monolithic voting block. Frankly its a miracle that some dude who no one outside of his constituency even heard of 24 months ago made an actual race out of this. A Texas Senate race hasn't been decided by less than 10 points in ages.

Rome didn't (usually) burn down in a day. Maybe your family is too far gone, but not everybody is. "gently caress entire swaths of the electorate" is why the Democrats will probably not take full control of the federal government for 20+ years. They keep hanging their hats on issues like gun bans (the GA candidate calling AR15s weapons of mass destruction, etc) which just turns people away. It's Hilldawg putting coal miners out of work every drat time.

This is where the Democrats need to do some research and find places worth throwing grassroots efforts at. The country isn't divided into Far Left, Near Left, and the KKK.
