This is so great. Laura Dern is incredible right now on Big Little Lies, and there is this whole subplot about her melting down about her seven-year-old melting down about climate change.

Democrazy posted:My serious analysis is that a secret winner of this debate might be Bernie Sanders. While he didn’t do anything spectacular in the debate, he didn’t do anything too bad, and debates were never going to be his strong suit, anyway. He also is likely to benefit from Biden’s meltdown, as there has been some polling showing an overlap between Biden and Bernie’s support. Hopefully he gets through the next debate alright and gets a chance to show more energy in September when the stage isn't so crowded. Edit: if I'm Biden's campaign manager I'm telling him to start listening to his debate coach or I'm quitting before he ruins my reputation.

Tibalt posted:I dunno, if I was his campaign manager I'd be Guarded but not at outright Concerned yet. Debates have more potential to kill campaign than to boost it, so him coming out unscathed is definitely a good thing. But it was a weak first impression to make, and it's making him vulnerable to an attack on his age. Standing next to Biden while Slalwell is calling him an old gently caress isn't a great look. I dunno, I thought the only part where he looked bad were the parts where he felt attacked by Swalwell’s comments about age and getting a new generation in there. That kind of defensiveness did not suit him. I’m just not convinced that he’s the best fit for the back and forth of a debate. I think he gets too heated; he’s better where he can talk about what he wants to do, rather than feeling the need to respond to others.

KIM JONG TRILL posted:14 people have already qualified for the 2nd debate. The next debate (second debate) in July will have the same requirements and rules as the one last night. I'd be a little surprised if almost everyone didn't make it off of cannibalizing the polling or donors from the no-namers who aren't on stage. Sorry Gravel. The first debate of the second round of debates will have stricter rules and will occur in September. I think 538.com estimated 10 candidates are on track to get in? The media keeps referring to the debates by rounds, so it's easy to get confused.

If you have two front-runners and one starts imploding, then the second one can be expected to benefit.

Hello. I’m going to come with a long range snipe because I can’t sleep. I can’t sleep, I haven’t posted in months, and I want this to be something I can quote without having to toxx for it. Something Awful is a drat fine place full of brilliant people who have some serious opinions (problems). Reading Goon takes on the debates are waaaaaay better than watching them. Here are some of my opinions, ripe for first (second) page hatred. Warren is the democratic nominee, I didn’t watch the debates, I’m not remotely interested in them. I knew she was the democratic nominee when she started running. She knew she was the democratic nominee when she started running. Joe Biden didn’t want to run at all, he’s doing this to call more attention to the democrats who are. To say he’s committing political suicide is to say “who is that guy again? oh yeah, barry’s vp”. I think he wanted to step out of the way a couple years ago, but people, I don’t know who, butt people think he should have ran. Check my probes, I was the literal first person in C-SPAM to say Bernie would have won after Colbert looked like he was going to cry on election night. That being said: “I am not now and have never been a member of the communist party or otherwise affiliated with it.” After minimal  in the DSA thread, I’ve declared this rabid communist bullshit to be not funny anymore. You loving goons. God drat. Go talk to some people outside of your bubble. It’ll do them and you some good if you try. I dunno, hear them out and not try to demonize them or convince them of anything maybe. Try to find things you agree with (those) people about, make any sort of common ground. Bernie has made his point, and I salute his unbelievable integrity. The man is a saint even if you don’t agree with him. If I’m incorrect about Liz and he is nominated, of course I’d vote for him. I love the man. When I say Bernie is unbelievable, I say “hey there’s a politician in Washington who’s had the same message for longer than I’ve been alive!” (I’m one of the oldest of my generation) I’ve said this before too, wouldn’t it be fair to ask who the hell that person who’s been in politics so long, and has stayed on message so consistently could possibly could be if you’d never heard of the man? Good luck to people with a horse in this race, I’m not so sure that the orange crybaby will be voted out at all. The world is a complicated place, and it looks more interesting (frightening) all the time. I’m tired of people trying to make me feel stupid and bad because a plastic shopping bag doesn’t break and drop all my food on the ground. How come I can’t shop at the co-op for oatmeal that isn’t full of roundup, without getting the side eye like I came to church wearing a yarmulke? I’m sorry I like steak and beer, as well as kombucha and insoluble fiber. Maybe the bad guy wrestler will make me rich too somehow, and prevent the utter dissolution of the white race (my team). Maybe it’s time I just let go of trying to care about people who just aren’t like me, and instead focus on my own family. I’ve talked to too many people, young and old, without interjecting my own opinion for at least five loving minutes to have faith in the system right now, and I’ve read a lot of yours. I’m so very, very sorry (tired) that this post is (mostly) in earnest. The internet really did make us all stupid. Apologies, I’m going back to my hiatus for at least another month. I also need to buy a new av. Not like anybody noticed or cared. I’ll be reading even if not posting, so, thank you if you took the time to read my spectacularly bad post.

Who gives a gently caress? To the recent Marianne Williamson fans ITT (assuming you're not doing a really bad troll): what in the gently caress is wrong with you? You're what's wrong with America. We're not electing a loving anti-vax, anti-science "power of positive thought!!" moron made famous by bored white housewives on Oprah!! Jesus Christ we're a dumb as gently caress country. I really don't feel I can be nice about this anymore. People are dying. Many more will. Stop loving around and get serious about what's in front of us.

feels like a lot of people who would have voted Clinton over Sanders in 2016 are attaching the yas kween label to cops like Gillibrand and Harris. Feels bad that people are making GBS threads on Sanders in favor of Harris. It's good that Biden got turbofucked but it's looking like either Trump wins again narrowly or we go into a poo poo-tier status quo again. The only major difference will be a much better House of Reps who can hopefully train up to be in the Senate/head office later on. Part of me seriously doubts how we can make the country better when truly so many morons inhabit middle america and don't give a poo poo that their farms are hosed or that a hospital will bankrupt them. The memification of that Williamson lady is loving moronic though. I don't care if she roomed with a lady from Twin Peaks jesus christ I just want universal healthcare/living wages/better ecological practice.
