I hate that we're in this situation period. I hate that Joe just didn't retire. I hate that even if there's a good result we're still going to spend the next generation at a minimum fighting these fucks. I hate that the climate change situation is to the point that even a huge international effort might be meaningless.

Biden winning would just mean a return to the status quo, or more realistically a heavily damaged and worse version of the status quo. That's not going to do much for most people and we'd just end up with another Trump figure in 4 years.

We live in a world where Hunter "Wrong Kid Died" Biden getting a job he probably didn't deserve is more of a big deal than Donnie:

  • Running a scam university
  • Running 2 fake charities during the election
  • Paying himself millions in taxpayer miney to play golf
  • Admitting to sexual assault
  • + hundreds of other things

Biden would be an improvement over the current situation. Of course as hosed up as things are so would Romney. He's not going to provide the shock to the system that we need because he's trapped in some fantasy of how things used to work, and his ideas about how he can work across the aisle would be extremely naive 10 years ago.

It's not ideal but if that's how things shook out I would.

Edit: The problem with making Liz VP is that Baker is going to fill her seat with some Republican shitbag, and a senate majority is one of the most important priorities we need to have.

He doesn't drink because Fred Jr. drank himself to death. People have said that they know he's abused "weight loss" drugs, and that he certainly acts like a cokehead.

Our company culture has some very anti-WFM nuance. We're all set up for remote work, most people could accomplish most of their poo poo from home, and it would probably improve morale. But people will also act like you're scamming if you do it. My boss does it often enough, but I'm not allowed to.

Hopefully he's not conceding just yet. Even if he can't win he should put some pressure on Joe going into the convention.

When I did field school we had a grad student named John who didn't yet have any field experience. He started pulling big primary flakes out of one of his shovel tests, and went loving nutso on the hole and dug it really wide before the professor could stop him because he didn't get that this was only intended as survey. So he pulled a poo poo ton of flakes out of the hole, and one of our units had a big ugly disturbed spot right in the middle of it.

When we were coming back from a week in the woods with the Forest Service we stopped in a restaurant for a real meal. We're all tired as gently caress from stomping around in the underbrush all week, but John wants to keep jabbering at the professor about archaeology. She loudly thumped her head down on the table and told him not to say anything else about archaeology until after the weekend.
