    In all seriousness, Biden clapped back harder in the second half and had some great parts where he actually outlined some good shit for the future and what he’s gotten done in the past. Hopefully, the next debate is during the day when it’s sunny and he’s not sick with a cold.

    He should stick to the overarching points in debates in the future. 2-3 points, speak slower, more measured, smile when his idiot opponent shoots himself in the foot by rambling.








  • Work would freak out if I accepted a gift from a client. I’d probably be fired. Yet somehow, this is okay for servants of the public.

    Don’t forget to vote this November. We are stuck with these dickheads until they die or retire because we fucked up in 2016 and Trump installed these assholes in rapid succession after McConnell refused to let Obama seat a justice. I’d also really appreciate more of the capped prescriptions Biden has done, paying $35 a month instead of hundreds for insulin. If he can cap some other medications, we will be one step closer to universal healthcare.








  • The decline is threefold:

    1. Agriculture is getting significantly more efficient. You don’t need 300 people do backbreaking labor for 12 hours a day in the beating sun anymore. We have automated threshers.

    2. Industries are shifting. We generally moved away from manufacturing and an extraction-based economy. (Though the former is recovering, thanks to Biden’s awesome investment plan)

    3. jobs are moving to cities, where there are more schools, hospitals, high paying jobs, and may be more resilient to climate change.

    Personally, I’d never ever consider moving anywhere rural for the aforementioned reasons, but also because rural americans are against my type family, and I don’t care to be the queer pioneer family for them to realize we aren’t so bad. I also never want to drive a car for a half hour+ for basic supplies or to see friends. It’s too lonely. We have rail and ebikes here. I can get to the store or a friend’s in less than 10 minutes.
