Best Friends posted:Conservative US Catholics just pretend they're evangelicals on everything. There's not actually much difference in belief, even on the big things like biblical literalism and "are vaccines good" Yeah this is my not quite tradcath step family that have gone all in on Q since the election.

facialimpediment posted:Virginia goons - this sound right based on your anecdotals? Looks like any weird end result isn't going to be due to low turnout. I had to wait 20 minutes to vote early on Saturday. Longest early voting line I've had in Arlington. The 2020 election had a shorter line though they also had more stations open then. Also the person in front of me was voting in their first election since becoming a citizen. Everyone actually did stand and applaud.

Trying to keep myself from frantically f5ing every few seconds to get Va results. Especially since Fairfax accounted a delay in reporting their early voting tallies.

Yeah I don't know a thing about what McAuliffe was campaigning for. He was just kinda there.

When I got that I legit thought it was a republican mailer. The Dems mailers and canvassers were literally just "go vote" with not message as to who to vote for or why. At best "keep Virginia blue".

I got one and spent a good 5 minutes trying to figure out which party sent it. Also: https://mobile.twitter.com/brianklaas/status/1455863416040603658?s=20

Handsome Ralph posted:Yeah like others have said, replacing office drones with oversea workers has been a thing long before WFH and COVID. I don't disagree with you that it's certainly going to accelerate now (and that doesn't even include things like automation), but I think the bigger ramifications are still ahead of us. Personally I think it's a beneficial change but like any major shift in work culture, there are going to be downsides that people didn't really think of. My agency is explicitly declining to renew our leases on the grounds that WFH and remote positions are more cost effective than DC office rents. We literally can't move people back to the office because we don't have the office to put them in.

I'm actually worried combined flu-covid booster shots will mean fewer people get the flu shot.

For a naval miniseries do either the merchant marine hauling lend lease supplies around Scandinavia to Russia or the hunt for the Bismark. For historical miniseries in general they should do one on the South Seas investment bubble and how Walpole rode out the scandal to create the prime ministership.

BIG HEADLINE posted:In the 2017 election the VA DNC lost its chance at taking control of the statehouse because they let too many races go uncontested. It came down to drawing a name out of a 35mm film container to decide which party would control the statehouse. The Republicans won. The Democrats finally took it in 2019 with a rather large margin, but lost it this time around. The only den group I saw actively campaigning against that ballot initiative was the NAACP.
