Local politics news: PA state house has a special election coming up next month for the 197th district (incumbent had to resign for committing felony embezzelment, lol). Should be a no-brainer because voter registration in the 197th is 85% Democrat, but wait!!! Local Republicans scraped up a few voters to file a challenge to the Dem candidate's residency status. Seemed like it wasn't going to work, because although their claim was based on his house's low rate of water/electricity use meaning he didn't actually live there, the utility companies testified there wasn't enough evidence to support it, and the guy produced a bunch of supporting documents and witnesses who said they'd seen him living there.

But wait again!!! The Republican judge hearing the case decided she was convinced anyway and threw him off the ballot today, and golly gosh, it seems the filing deadline was Tuesday, so the GOP candidate is now the only person left standing and a surprise Republican pick-up in North Philly now looms.

What a series of happy coincidences for the GOP.

Trump's like one of those jugglers with the chainsaws and the flaming balls and so on, where they just keep adding more horrible implements of death and you stare wondering which one is going to be the one that drops and kills him/everyone in the room. Will it be a sloppy ACA repeal that leaves tens of millions without health insurance and racks up a thousands-strong bodycount? Will it be a massive tarrif rollout that overturns the global economy? Will it be a provocation with China, Iran, North Korea or loving Sweden that launches a massive war? Which of these myriad disasters are going to kill us all and when will one of them finally drop?

Worth a read - yeah, getting hurt sucks.

It's even better when your poo poo job doesn't provide insurance (because you were part time haha) and even when you go to the doctor anyway they brush off your injuries.

Then because you're too prideful you don't seek help from college, even though you can't walk across campus due to said injuries, can't make classes, and this fucks you out of college for half a decade.

At least, things got better... I know it doesn't for everyone, and it sucks.
