I'd vote for this guy before I'd vote for Trump:

That’s the only reason I have FB too. I nearly always regret doom scrolling, it only ever makes me think worse of people. Eventually fewer and fewer people will post there, too, as it’s taken over by commercial and generated content, and it’ll get to be a medium for 6 old farts to discuss stuff Wendy P.

I think Zelinskyy should agree to the deal Putin signed in, what, 2003? If Putin doesn't go for it, it should be pointed out that, if that agreement can't be trusted, what's the point of any further agreements? If you reserve the right to be a lying piece of shit, how can you hold anyone else to their word?

That all depends on what horrifies a person. My own SUPPORT, and vote, for Harris was a vote against the damage any sane person could plainly see coming from another Trump Presidency. I'll wager (for realsie not Canadian style) that most Harris voters were more on that spectrum than any belief that she would be an amazing CIC. I do believe that cackling was a factor in the sense that it was a convenient glue used to bind together a list of shallow beliefs and outright prejudices too many voters used to justify holding their noses and voting Trump.

I think a hand written letter sent through the mail has more effect than something sent electronically. It is somethin physical you can hold on to and don't need some electronic device to read. I have a collection of letters that my uncle wrote to my grandmother during world war II. I have erased most of the emails that I have received.

We’ll call it a draw

Cooper didn't do anything that would have forced them to take V-23, that's the problem. V27 was a viable option that would have actually made some logical sense for them to take since it would have avoided flying over populated areas.

I was thinking Texas. They want to secede anyway.

I agree that he has a goal of stretching out the search zone by giving destinations as far south as possible. I also agree he had no intention of ever being on the plane the next time it landed (hell...he is wearing a parachute at take off in Seattle). It comes down to if he knew about V23 or not, and I don't think it matters much. Either he did, and he gave instructions that would force them to use it...or he didn't and he gave them instructions that would force them to use it. Either way, the plane is going south towards Portland and that's all he really cares about regarding the flight path. No coast, no mountains, not north...the rest works itself out.

I’m conflicted over keeping a FB account and don’t have Ticktok. In Australia FB are in the process of requiring government ID to maintain your account, due to recent legislation changes. I’ve had identity theft before and I don’t just hand out my ID. The problem is that I’ve got FB friends and relatives around the world where I’m interested in their major life events that they post, but it’s not like we phone or text each other.

Clearly Trump need not apply. He's disqualified on several counts.
