Also, what the gently caress is with Pete using yellow? Are they baiting CSPAM into piss tape photo editing? Are they just piss?

imaging the strategy sessions of suit-dummy campaign leadership

All like: fast food uses yellow because science says it makes people hungry

And then: yes yellow will make people hungry for Pete

Lone dissenter: yellow looks like piss

Everyone else: it's science, actually

all of mayo Pete's supporters seem like sheltered college sophomores (juniors if you count credits earned in high school) who went to STEM magnet schools.


Yellow works for them because it evokes the bus which whisked them to their AP paradise every day.

Bernie supporters understand the two noble truths of existence

1. School sucks

2. Work sucks

So bernie is the blue of the deep sky, which we toilers gaze toward in momentary wonder as we dream of a better life

All I want in life is to be able to live comfortably, enjoy some entertainment. These are simple demands, why is it so hard for capitalism to accept them, especially when selling those things is supposed to be their business model?

What's the point of moderate wealth if I cannot look down on someone who has nothing and is begging for scraps?

it's not yellow, it's Heartland Yellow!

quote:

Yellow is big in Indiana. It is prominently featured in both the state flag and in South Bend's modern new flag – yet another symbol of the city's penchant for reinvention ushered in during Mayor Pete's tenure. It might be seen as a reference to gold found in local streams or to its golden wheat fields, but to us Heartland Yellow represents innovation–different people coming together in the heart of America, building on our industrial heritage to bring new ideas to life for the 21st century economy.

Claeys Cream
Claeys Candy is a family-owned company that makes Old-Fashioned American Hard Candy. Founded in a South Bend garage in 1919, Claeys Candy has been making high-quality treats in the city for 100 years.

Strato Blue
Strato Blue was one of the available colors in the 1964 line of Studebakers, an American automobile manufacturer founded and headquartered in South Bend, Indiana in 1852. Studebaker closed its doors in 1967 but still forms an important part of the local identity as can be experienced at the Studebaker Museum. The redevelopment of a former Studebaker plant is a cornerstone of the city's Renaissance District.

Calm Blue
Pete Buttigieg is unapologetically substantive yet salt-of-the-earth. He speaks plainly and intelligently about the everyday issues that matter to real everyday people. He is a rational thinker and a great communicator. Above all, he is a calming voice who can clearly explain how we can face the great challenges before us.

Rust Belt and Blue Sky
Like many midwestern American cities, South Bend’s landscape is a window to its past. Its weathered red brick structures are a testament to the region’s industrial heritage, its contrasting bright skies a persistent symbol of optimism and readiness to adapt to the changing winds of history.

Buddy Gold and Truman Brown
Buddy and Truman Buttigieg are the first dogs of South Bend and an important part of Pete and his husband Chasten’s family. You can learn all about the lovable pooches on their lively twitter account.

Nothing will get better for me under Mayor Pete. I haven't had a solid stretch of work in years and even before that it's been wildly inconsistent. I'm tired of filling out applications for jobs I'll never get. I'm tired of thinking death is preferable to the current state of the world. I'm tired of not being able to have anything.

Either give me full communism now or let me scam my way into a techbro ceo job.

Mayo Pete strategy session

"We have got it to telegraph that Pete is gay in a way that signals he is also bourgeois and boring"

"I've got it! *snaps fingers making wet fart sound* we take a color palette from a grandma's house and shoehorn in some biographical bullshit and call it design. Gays love colors. Gays love design."

At the head of the table lis smith nods approvingly, her mind drifts, as it always does to what her life would be like if Elliott spitzer didn't fall from grace.

There's always going to be some level of cross-over between a candidate's policies and "personal loyalty" to them, but there's definitely been a push to deliberately make it more about the latter, in order to paper-over the lack of good policies.

Nah. Biden is Hillary in 08. The entirety of his support is because of his "electability" so the second that he underperforms in a primary his support will crater.

He reached into his leather briefcase, sitting nearby, and produced a tiny notebook that was filled with the candidate's handwritten jottings. “I was reunited with [the quote] a few weeks ago,” he continued. “It was wasted on me in college but now is really striking.”

He proceeded to read James Baldwin's words aloud: “White people in this country will have quite enough to do in learning how to accept and love themselves and each other, and when they have achieved this—which will not be tomorrow and may well be never—the Negro problem will no longer exist, for it will no longer be needed.”

He closed the notebook, appearing satisfied. Yes, the quote was insightful and timely—but of course, I knew it would be as soon as he reached for it. In some ways it seemed as if the presidential candidate was still the eager (and eager-to-please) high school student who told his teacher Julie Chismar that he wanted to learn a language for every continent.
